Isolation of endophytic diazotroph Pantoea agglomerans and nondiazotroph Enterobacter asburiae from sweetpotato stem in Japan

AIMS: To isolate and identify diazotrophic endophytes in the stem of Japanese sweetpotato cv. Koganesengan. METHODS AND RESULTS: Surface-sterilized and thinly sliced (1-2 mm) sweetpotato stem samples were incubated in test tubes with semi-solid modified Rennie (MR) medium. The test tubes were assayed for acetylene reduction activity (ARA) 5 days after incubation at 30 degrees C. Twelve isolates were obtained from MR plates inoculated with a loop of semi-solid MR medium from ARA+ tubes. However, ARA test showed that only nine isolates were diazotrophic and three were nondiazotrophic strains. Using the API 20E diagnostic kit, four diazotrophic isolates were identified as strains of Pantoea spp. and five isolates as Klebsiella spp. The nondiazotrophic bacteria were strains of Enterobacter spp. A diazotrophic isolate Pantoea sp. MY1 and nondiazotrophic isolate Enterobacter sp. MY2 were identified to the species level by full sequence analysis of 16S rRNA gene. The results showed that MY1 had 99.2% similarity to Pantoea agglomerans ATCC 27155 and MY2 had 99.5% similarity to Enterobacter asburiae ATCC 35953. CONCLUSION: The stem of sweetpotato cv. Koganesengan was colonized by diazotrophic endophyte P. agglomerans and nondiazotrophic endophyte E. asburiae. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: This study is an essential step toward understanding the ecology and interaction between endophytic bacteria and sweetpotato.     

Sensitivity to pH, product inhibition, and inhibition by NAD+ of 1,3-propanediol dehydrogenase purified from Enterobacter agglomerans CNCM 1210

Because of its key role in the metabolism of glycerol during fermentation, 1,3-propanediol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.202) of Enterobacter agglomerans CNCM 1210 was purified to homogeneity and studied with respect to its sensitivity to pH and to nucleotide and 1,3-propanediol concentrations. Enzyme activity was optimal at pH 7.8. The enzyme was competitively inhibited by NAD⁺ (K_i of 0.29 mM), and 1,3-propanediol exerted a strong inhibitory effect according to a mixed-type inhibition with a K_i of 13.7 mM and an a-factor of 9.0. It is proposed that these dehydrogenase properties be extended to the dehydrogenases of Citrobacter freundii and Klebsiella pneumoniae, which exhibited numerous similar physical properties.

Molecular epidemiology of Bordetella pertussis isolated in Taiwan, 1992-1997

In Taiwan, the number of pertussis cases including various types of infection has been increasing in recent years, especially in 1997. Since 71% of the reported cases concentrated in the densely populated Taipei metropolitan area, concerns have been raised that a highly contagious strain of Bordetella pertussis might have appeared in Taipei. In this study, 114 strains of B. pertussis including those isolated in 1992-1996 (n = 53) and 1997 (n = 61) were subjected to pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) of the Xba I digests from their chromosomes. Based on the band patterns, they were divided into 21 subtypes, P1 to P21. The strains isolated in 1997 consist of 17 subtypes including 9 new subtypes which did not appear in the previous years, indicating that the outbreaks in 1997 were not caused by a sole specific virulent strain. Dendrogram analysis indicated that the 21 subtypes can be grouped into five clusters, with the first four subtypes possessing 60 to 95% relatedness to one another, whereas relatedness between cluster 5 (containing P21 only) and the other clusters is less than 50%. Notably, all the subtypes except P12 and P21 appeared at least once in Taipei and the majority of the strains (54%) belong to two clusters, 3 and 4. These results suggest that highly dense population may facilitate spread and accelerate genetic divergence of this pathogen. This is the first report on pertussis molecular epidemiology in Taiwan.     

Assignment of Alu-repetitive sequences to large restriction fragments from human chromosomes 6 and 22

We have employed a pulsed field gel electrophoresis and Alu hybridization approach for identification of large restriction fragments on chromosome 6 and 22. This technique allows large portions of selected human chromosomes to be visualized as discrete hybridization signals. Somatic cell hybrid DNA which contains chromosome 6 or chromosome 22 was restricted with either Notl or Mlul. The restriction fragments were separated by pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and hybridized against an Alu repetitive sequence (Blur 8). The hybridization signals result in a fingerprint-like pattern which is unique for each chromosome and each restriction enzyme. In addition, a continuous pattern of restriction fragments was demonstrated by gradually increasing puls times. This approach will also be suitable to analyze aberrant human chromosomes retained in somatic cell hybrids and can be used to analyze flow sorted human chromosomes. To this end, our method provides a valuable alternative to standard cytogenetic analysis.     

Genetic Diversity of Pneumocystis carinii Derived from Infected Rats, Mice, Ferrets, and Cell Cultures

ABSTRACT. The degree of strain and/or species diversity among Pneumocystis carinii isolates is unknown. As a first approach to the study of P. carinii genetic relatedness, we compared the pulsed field gel electrophoretic karyotypes of P. carinii derived from lung homogenates of three immunosuppressed host animals: rats transtracheally inoculated with P. carinii -infected rat lung; mice transtracheally inoculated with P. carinii -infected mouse lung; and ferrets which developed reactivated latent P. carinii pneumonia. Rat P. carinii propagated on HEL299 cells was also examined. Karyotypes of P. carinii DNA from both rat lung homogenate and cell culture were identical (14 bands, 315–680 kb). In contrast, mouse and ferret P. carinii DNA karyotypes were each distinctly different from the rat P. carinii samples (mouse P. carinii 15 bands, 315–610 kb; ferret P. carinii nine bands, 410–760 kb). Three distinct rat P. carinii gene probes reacted with both Southern-transferred rat and mouse P. carinii DNA but not with ferret P. carinii DNA. Thus, P. carinii from rat, mouse, and ferret are genetically diverse. The results are consistent with recently reported antigenic and nucleic acid sequence differences among P. carinii isolates recovered from different hosts.     

Characterization of the Legionella anisa population structure by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis

We analysed 38 French isolates of Legionella anisa by means of pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) with single or double digestion. Double digestion was more discriminatory than single digestion, and can thus be useful for epidemiological studies of L. anisa. Several isolates from different parts of France clustered together on the basis of their PFGE patterns (similarity cutoff of 80%), suggesting that the L. anisa population structure is homogenous or that a few clones of L. anisa strains have spread widely in France.     

Molecular epidemiology of Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis isolated in Taiwan

Incidence of Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis infection seems to be on the rise in Taiwan, and therefore, the characteristics of the isolate, including genotypes, were epidemiologically investigated. Of the 71 clinical strains isolated in 1997-1999, 61 (86%) remained susceptible to the eight antibiotics tested, while the remaining ten, eight of which were isolated in 1999, were resistant to one to three of the agents including three multiply resistant strains. The majority, 69 or 97% of the isolates, harbored a 60-kb spvC gene-carrying virulence plasmid and 12 of them harbored one or two additional various-sized plasmids. Strains with more than one plasmid were isolated mostly in 1999. Pulse-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) revealed three major genotypes (Types A, B and C), in which type A was the predominant type. Of the 68 Type A, which contained 8 subtypes, 59 (83%) belonged to only two subtypes. Similar results were obtained with a PCR-based typing method, the infrequent-restriction-site (IRS) PCR. All four methods detected types that were rarely seen before and most of these were of recent isolates, indicating that these unusual types were new or strains of foreign origin. Though all four methods discriminated types well, PFGE and IRS-PCR showed higher sensitivity for classification. Between the two, the latter, though less discriminatory than PFGE, seems the method of choice, since it is simpler, less time-consuming and above all easy to perform.     

A rapid pulsed-field gel electrophoresis method of genotyping Haemophilus parasuis isolates

Aims: To develop a modified pulsed‐field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) method for characterizing Haemophilus parasuis isolates. Methods and Results: A modified PFGE procedure was designed using CpoI to generate restriction maps of H. parasuis genomic DNA. This approach was used to characterize 47 H. parasuis clinical isolates and 15 reference strains. All strains could be typed by this method, and the procedure was completed in 36 h. A total of 39 different PFGE patterns were identified among 47 epidemiologically unrelated clinical isolates. Conclusions: The modified PGFE described in this report efficiently characterized H. parasuis isolates. This method can be adopted for studying the epidemiology of Glässer’s disease outbreaks in addition to differentiating and classifying previously untypeable H. parasuis isolates. Significance and Impact of the Study: The modified PFGE method described is a novel means of characterizing H. parasuis isolates. It is also a highly discriminatory molecular typing method (discriminatory index of 0·98) that can overcome the limitations of serotyping.
