Aims
We investigated the possible transgenerational transfer of bacterial seed endophytes across three consecutive seed generations of Crotalaria pumila growing on a metal mining site in Mexico.Methods
Seeds were collected during three successive years in the semi-arid region of Zimapan, Mexico. Total communities of seed endophytes were investigated using DNA extraction from surface sterilized seeds and 454 pyrosequencing of the V5-V7 hypervariable regions of the 16S rRNA gene.Results
The communities consisted of an average of 75 operational taxonomic units (OTUs); richness and diversity did not change across years. Methylobacterium, Staphylococcus, Corynebacterium, Propionibacterium and eight other OTUs constituted >60% of the community in each generation. The microbiome was dominated by Methylobacterium (present in >80% of samples). Functions associated with the microbiome were C and N fixation, oxidative phosphorylation and photosynthesis activity.Conclusions
The bacterial endophytic communities were similar across three consecutive seed generations. Among the core microbiome Methylobacterium strains were the most abundant and they can contribute to nutrient acquisition, plant growth promotion and stress resilience to their host in metal contaminated mine residues. Identification of the seed microbiome of C. pumila may lead to novel and more efficient inoculants for microbe-assisted phytoremediation.2.

Background and aims
Plant breeding activities shape the rhizosphere microbiome but less is known about the relationship of both with the seed microbiome. We analyzed the composition of bacterial communities of seeds and rhizospheres of Styrian oil pumpkin genotypes in comparison to bulk soil to elucidate specific microbial signatures to support a concept involving plant-microbe interactions in breeding strategies.Methods
The seed and rhizosphere microbiomes of 14 genotypes of oilseed pumpkin and relatives were analyzed using a 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing approach, which was assessed by bioinformatics and statistical methods.Results
All analyzed microhabitats were characterized by diverse bacterial communities, but the relative proportions of phyla and the overall diversity was different. Seed microbiomes were characterized by the lowest diversity and dominant members of Enterobacteriaceae including potential pathogens (Erwinia, Pectobacterium). Potential plant-beneficial bacteria like Lysobacter, Paenibacillus and Lactococcus contributed to the microbial communities in significant abundances. Interestingly, strong genotype-specific microbiomes were detected for seeds but not for the rhizospheres.Conclusions
Our study indicates a strong impact of the Cucurbita pepo genotype on the composition of the seed microbiome. This should be considered in breeding of new cultivars that are more capable of exploiting beneficial indigenous microbial communities.3.
Aims
We evaluated the efficacy of biochar application for suppressing bacterial wilt of tomato and identified the potential underlying mechanisms involved in the disease control.Methods
We measured the impact of two different sized biochar (53–120 μm and 380–830 μm) on bacterial wilt incidence in a greenhouse experiment. The efficiency of different sized biochar for the adsorption of tomato root exudates and the pathogen was further examined in vitro. We also quantified the effects of biochar and tomato root exudates on two pathogen virulence factors, chemotaxis, swarming motility and examined the effect of biochar on pathogen root colonization.Results
Fine biochar application (3%; w:w) significantly decreased the bacterial wilt incidence by 19.9%. Biochar with different particle size had similar adsorption capacity for root exudates, while fine biochar was efficient (91%) in pathogen adsorption. Root exudates and fine biochar increased the chemotaxis ability of pathogen, while fine biochar reduced pathogen swarming motility and rhizosphere colonization.Conclusions
Application of fine biochar can significantly decreased bacterial wilt incidence. This was mechanistically explained by biochar ability to 1) adsorb pathogen directly and indirectly via adsorption of root exudates (based on pathogen chemotaxis) and to 2) directly suppress pathogen swarming motility and subsequent root colonization.4.

Background
Seeds host bacterial inhabitants but only a limited knowledge is available on which taxa inhabit seed, which niches could be colonized, and what the routes of colonization are.Scope
Within this commentary, a discussion is provided on seed bacterial inhabitants, their taxa, and from where derive the seed colonizers.Conclusions
Seeds/and grains host specific bacteria deriving from the anthosphere, carposphere, or from cones of gymnosperms and inner tissues of plants after a long colonization from the soil to reproductive organs.6.

Introduction
Quantification of tetrahydrofolates (THFs), important metabolites in the Wood–Ljungdahl pathway (WLP) of acetogens, is challenging given their sensitivity to oxygen.Objective
To develop a simple anaerobic protocol to enable reliable THFs quantification from bioreactors.Methods
Anaerobic cultures were mixed with anaerobic acetonitrile for extraction. Targeted LC–MS/MS was used for quantification.Results
Tetrahydrofolates can only be quantified if sampled anaerobically. THF levels showed a strong correlation to acetyl-CoA, the end product of the WLP.Conclusion
Our method is useful for relative quantification of THFs across different growth conditions. Absolute quantification of THFs requires the use of labelled standards.7.
Background
Metabolic disorders such as Obesity, Diabetes Type 2 (T2DM) and Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD) are the most prevalent globally. Recently, there has been a surge in the evidence indicating the correlation between the intestinal microbiota and development of these metabolic conditions apart from predisposing genetic and epigenetic factors. Gut microbiome is pivotal in controlling the host metabolism and physiology. But imbalances in the microbiota patterns lead to these disorders via several pathways. Animal and human studies so far have concentrated mostly on metagenomics for the whole microbiome characterization to understand how microbiome supports health in general. However, the accurate mechanisms connecting the metabolic disorders and alterations in gut microbial composition in host and the metabolites employed by the microorganisms in regulating the metabolic disorders is still vague.Objective
The review delineates the latest findings about the role of gut microbiome to the pathophysiology of Obesity, IBD and Diabetes Mellitus. Here, we provide a brief introduction to the gut microbiome followed by the current therapeutic interventions in restoration of the disrupted intestinal microbiota.Methods
A methodical PubMed search was performed using keywords like “gut microbiome,” “obesity,” “diabetes,” “IBD,” and “metabolic syndromes.” All significant and latest publications up to January 2018 were accounted for the review.Results
Out of the 93 articles cited, 63 articles focused on the gut microbiota association to these disorders. The rest 18 literature outlines the therapeutic approaches in maintaining the gut homeostasis using probiotics, prebiotics and faecal microbial transplant (FMT).Conclusion
Metabolic disorders have intricate etiology and thus a lucid understanding of the complex host-microbiome inter-relationships will open avenues to novel therapeutics for the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of the metabolic diseases.8.

Background and aims
We studied, through exudates employment, the effect of Epichloë (endophytic fungi), both independently and in association with Bromus auleticus (grass), on arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) colonization, host and neighbouring plants biomass production and soil changes.Methods
Through in vitro and greenhouse experiments, Epichloë endophytes effect on AMF development was evaluated. In vitro studies of exudates effect on Gigaspora rosea and Rhizophagus intraradices were performed using root or endophyte exudates. A 6-month greenhouse experiment was conducted to determine Bromus auleticus endophytic status effect and endophyte exudates role in biomass production, neighbouring plants mycorrhizal colonization and soil properties.Results
Endophyte exudates and E+ plant root exudates promoted in vitro AMF development in the pre-infective stage of G. rosea and in carrot root culture mycelium of R. intraradices in a dose-response relationship, while control media and E- plants exudates had no effect. R. intraradices colonization and plant growth was clearly increased by endophytes and their exudates.Conclusions
This is the first work evidencing the direct effect of Epichloë endophytes and infected plants root exudates on AMF extramatrical development. While higher levels of AMF colonization were observed in E+ plants, no clear effect was detected in neighbouring plants colonization, plant biomass or soil properties.9.

Introduction
Aqueous–methanol mixtures have successfully been applied to extract a broad range of metabolites from plant tissue. However, a certain amount of material remains insoluble.Objectives
To enlarge the metabolic compendium, two ionic liquids were selected to extract the methanol insoluble part of trunk from Betula pendula.Methods
The extracted compounds were analyzed by LC/MS and GC/MS.Results
The results show that 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate (IL-Ac) predominantly resulted in fatty acids, whereas 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tosylate (IL-Tos) mostly yielded phenolic structures. Interestingly, bark yielded more ionic liquid soluble metabolites compared to interior wood.Conclusion
From this one can conclude that the application of ionic liquids may expand the metabolic snapshot.10.

Introduction
Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) is a common maternal liver disease; development can result in devastating consequences, including sudden fetal death and stillbirth. Currently, recognition of ICP only occurs following onset of clinical symptoms.Objective
Investigate the maternal hair metabolome for predictive biomarkers of ICP.Methods
The maternal hair metabolome (gestational age of sampling between 17 and 41 weeks) of 38 Chinese women with ICP and 46 pregnant controls was analysed using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry.Results
Of 105 metabolites detected in hair, none were significantly associated with ICP.Conclusion
Hair samples represent accumulative environmental exposure over time. Samples collected at the onset of ICP did not reveal any metabolic shifts, suggesting rapid development of the disease.13.

Introduction
Recent advances in microbiome research have revealed the diverse participation of gut microbiota in a number of diseases. Bacteria-specific endogenous small molecules are produced in the gut, are transported throughout the whole body by circulation, and play key roles in disease establishment. However, the factors and mechanisms underlying these microbial influences largely remain unknown.Objectives
The purpose of this study was to use metabolomics to better understand the influence of microbiota on host physiology.Methods
Germ-free mice (GF) were orally administered with the feces of specific pathogen-free (SPF) mice and were maintained in a vinyl isolator for 4 weeks for establishing the so-called ExGF mice. Comparative metabolomics was performed on luminal contents, feces, urine, plasma, and tissues of GF and ExGF mice.Results
The metabolomics profile of 1716 compounds showed marked difference between GF and ExGF for each matrix. Intestinal differences clearly showed the contribution of microbiota to host digestive activities. In addition, colonic metabolomics revealed the efficient conversion of primary to secondary metabolites by microbiota. Furthermore, metabolomics of tissues and excrements demonstrated the effect of microbiota on the accumulation of metabolites in tissues and during excretion. These effects included known bacterial effects (such as bile acids and amino acids) as well as novel ones, including a drastic decrease of sphingolipids in the host.Conclusion
The diverse effects of microbiota on different sites of the host metabolome were revealed and novel influences on host physiology were demonstrated. These findings should contribute to a deeper understanding of the influence of gut microbiota on disease states and aid in the development of effective intervention strategies.17.
Background
The protein encoded by the gene ybgI was chosen as a target for a structural genomics project emphasizing the relation of protein structure to function.Results
The structure of the ybgI protein is a toroid composed of six polypeptide chains forming a trimer of dimers. Each polypeptide chain binds two metal ions on the inside of the toroid.Conclusion
The toroidal structure is comparable to that of some proteins that are involved in DNA metabolism. The di-nuclear metal site could imply that the specific function of this protein is as a hydrolase-oxidase enzyme.18.

Aim
To investigate the effects of biochar on biological and chemical phosphorus (P) processes and identify potential interactive effects between P fertilizer and biochar on P bioavailability in the rhizosphere of maize.Methods
We conducted a pot-experiment with maize in a sandy loam soil with two fertilizer levels (0 and 100 mg P kg ?1) and three biochars produced from soft wood (SW), rice husk (RH) and oil seed rape (OSR). Sequential P fractionation was performed on biochar, bulk soil, and rhizosphere soil samples. Acid and alkaline phosphatase activity and root exudates of citrate, glucose, fructose, and sucrose in the rhizosphere were determined.Results
RH and OSR increased readily available soil P, whereas SW had no effect. However, over time available P from the biochars moved to less available P pools (Al-P and Fe-P). There were no interactive effects between P fertilizer and biochar on P bioavailability. Exudates of glucose and fructose were strongly affected by especially RH, whereas sucrose was mostly affected by P fertilizer. Alkaline phosphatase activity was positively correlated with pH, and citrate was positively correlated with readily available P.Conclusion
Biochar effects on biological and chemical P processes in the rhizosphere are driven by biochar properties.19.
