Plasmids are one of the key drivers of microbial adaptation and evolution. However, their diversity and role in adaptation, especially in extreme environments, remains largely unexplored. In this study, we aimed to identify, characterize and compare plasmid sequences originating from samples collected from deep-sea hydrothermal vents located in Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridges. To achieve this, we employed, and benchmarked three recently developed plasmid identification tools - PlasX, GeNomad and PLASMe – on metagenomic data from this unique ecosystem. To date, this is the first direct comparison of these computational methods in the context of data from extreme environments. Upon recovery of plasmid contigs, we performed a multi-approach analysis, focusing on identifying taxonomic and functional biases within datasets originating from each tool. Next, we implemented a majority voting system to identify high-confidence plasmid contigs, enhancing the reliability of our findings. By analyzing the consensus plasmid sequences, we gained insights into their diversity, ecological roles, and adaptive significance. Within the high-confidence sequences, we identified a high abundance of Pseudomonadota and Campylobacterota, as well as multiple toxin-antitoxin systems. Our findings ensure a deeper understanding of how plasmids contribute to shaping microbial communities living under extreme conditions of hydrothermal vents, potentially uncovering novel adaptive mechanisms.
质粒是微生物适应和进化的关键驱动力之一。然而,它们的多样性及其在适应过程中的作用,尤其是在极端环境中的作用,在很大程度上仍未得到探索。在这项研究中,我们旨在鉴定、描述和比较从北极洋中脊深海热液喷口采集的样本中的质粒序列。为此,我们在这一独特生态系统的元基因组数据中使用了最近开发的三种质粒鉴定工具--PlasX、GeNomad 和 PLASMe,并对其进行了基准测试。迄今为止,这是首次在极端环境数据背景下对这些计算方法进行直接比较。质粒等位基因恢复后,我们进行了多方法分析,重点是识别每种工具数据集中的分类和功能偏差。接下来,我们采用了一种多数投票系统来识别高可信度的质粒等位基因,从而提高了研究结果的可靠性。通过分析共识质粒序列,我们深入了解了它们的多样性、生态作用和适应意义。在高置信度序列中,我们发现了大量的假单胞菌和弯曲杆菌,以及多种毒素-抗毒素系统。我们的发现确保了对质粒如何帮助塑造生活在热液喷口极端条件下的微生物群落有更深入的了解,从而有可能发现新的适应机制。

Understanding the microbial communities in asymptomatic oil palm seedlings is crucial for developing disease-suppressive microbiota against basal stem rot (BSR) in oil palm. In this study, we compared the microbial communities in bulk soil, rhizosphere, and endosphere of control, asymptomatic, and symptomatic seedlings following inoculation with Ganoderma boninense. Our findings revealed significant shifts in microbial structure and interactions, particularly in asymptomatic seedlings. Both Actinobacteriota and Ascomycota were notably enriched in these samples, with Actinobacteriota identified as keystone taxa. Long-read shotgun metagenomics demonstrated that 67.4% of enriched Actinobacteriota taxa were unique to asymptomatic seedlings. Similarly, Ascomycota members showed significant enrichment, suggesting their potential role in BSR suppression. The consistent identification of these phyla across various analyses underscores their importance in disease resistance. This is the first report detailing the shifts in prokaryotic and fungal communities in asymptomatic and symptomatic seedlings, offering insights into potential disease-suppressive taxa across three compartments: bulk soil, rhizosphere, and endosphere of oil palm seedlings.
了解无症状油棕幼苗中的微生物群落对于开发抑制油棕基部茎腐病(BSR)的微生物群落至关重要。在这项研究中,我们比较了接种鲣节灵芝后对照组、无症状组和有症状组幼苗的土壤、根瘤层和内层的微生物群落。我们的研究结果表明,微生物结构和相互作用发生了重大变化,尤其是在无症状幼苗中。放线菌群(Actinobacteriota)和子囊菌群(Ascomycota)在这些样本中明显富集,其中放线菌群被确定为关键类群。长读数猎枪元基因组学表明,67.4%的富集放线菌群类群是无症状幼苗所独有的。同样,子囊菌目(Ascomycota)成员也显示出显著的富集,表明它们在抑制 BSR 中的潜在作用。在各种分析中这些门类的一致鉴定强调了它们在抗病中的重要性。这是第一份详细描述无症状幼苗和有症状幼苗中原核生物和真菌群落变化的报告,有助于深入了解油棕幼苗在大块土壤、根瘤层和内圈三个区系中潜在的病害抑制类群。

Prokaryotic maintenance respiration and associated metabolic activities constitute a considerable proportion of the total respiration of carbon to CO2 in the ocean's mixed layer. However, seasonal influences on prokaryotic maintenance activities in terms of morphological and metabolic adaptations at low (winter) and high productivity (summer) are still unclear. To address this, we examined the natural prokaryotic communities at the mesocosm scale to analyse the differences in their morphological features and gene expression at low and high maintenance respiration, experimentally manipulated with the specific growth rate. Here, we showed that morphological features including membrane blebbing, membrane vesicles and cell‒cell connections occurred under high productivity. Metabolic adaptations associated with maintenance activities were observed under low productivity. Several Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes categories related to signal transduction, energy metabolism, and translational machinery supported maintenance activities under simulated winter conditions. Differential abundances of genes related to transporters, osmoregulation, nitrogen metabolism, ribosome biogenesis, and cold stress were observed. Our results demonstrate how specific growth rate in different seasons can influence resource allocation at the levels of morphological features and metabolic adaptations. This motivates further study of morphological features and their ecological role during high productivity, while investigations of metabolic adaptations during low productivity can advance our knowledge about maintenance activities.
原核生物的维持性呼吸和相关代谢活动在海洋混合层碳转化为二氧化碳的总呼吸量中占有相当大的比例。然而,在低生产力(冬季)和高生产力(夏季)条件下,原核生物的形态和代谢适应性对原核生物维持活动的季节性影响尚不清楚。为了解决这个问题,我们在中观宇宙尺度上研究了自然原核生物群落,分析了它们在低和高维持呼吸作用下的形态特征和基因表达的差异,并通过实验操纵了特定的生长率。在这里,我们发现在高生产率条件下,原核生物群落的形态特征包括膜破裂、膜囊泡和细胞间连接。在低生产率条件下,观察到了与维持活动相关的代谢适应。在模拟的冬季条件下,与信号转导、能量代谢和翻译机制有关的几个《京都基因与基因组百科全书》类别支持维持活动。与转运体、渗透调节、氮代谢、核糖体生物发生和冷应激有关的基因丰度存在差异。我们的研究结果表明,不同季节的特定生长率会在形态特征和代谢适应性水平上影响资源分配。这促使我们进一步研究高生产力期间的形态特征及其生态作用,而对低生产力期间代谢适应性的研究则能增进我们对维持活动的了解。

Recent metagenomic studies have identified numerous lineages of hydrogen-dependent, obligately methyl-reducing methanogens. Yet, only a few representatives have been isolated in pure culture. Here, we describe six new species with this capability in the family Methanosarcinaceae (order Methanosarcinales), which makes up a substantial fraction of the methanogenic community in arthropod guts. Phylogenomic analysis placed the isolates from cockroach hindguts into the genus Methanimicrococcus (M. hacksteinii, M. hongohii, and M. stummii) and the isolates from millipede hindguts into a new genus, Methanolapillus (M. africanus, M. millepedarum, and M. ohkumae). Members of this intestinal clade, which includes also uncultured representatives from termites and vertebrates, have substantially smaller genomes (1.6-2.2 Mbp) than other Methanosarcinales. Genome reduction was accompanied by the loss of the upper part of the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway, several energy-converting membrane complexes (Fpo, Ech, and Rnf), and various biosynthetic pathways. However, genes involved in the protection against reactive oxygen species (catalase and superoxide reductase) were conserved in all genomes, including cytochrome bd (CydAB), a high-affinity terminal oxidase that may confer the capacity for microaerobic respiration. Since host-associated Methanosarcinales are nested within omnivorous lineages, we conclude that the specialization on methyl groups is an adaptation to the intestinal environment.

最近的元基因组研究发现了许多依赖氢气的强制性甲基还原甲烷菌系。然而,在纯培养物中分离出的代表物种却寥寥无几。在这里,我们描述了具有这种能力的 Methanosarcinaceae 科(Methanosarcinales 目)的六个新物种,它们在节肢动物内脏的甲烷菌群落中占了很大一部分。系统发生组分析将蟑螂后肠的分离物归入 Methanimicrococcus 属(M. hacksteinii、M. hongohii、M. stummii),将千足虫后肠的分离物归入一个新属 Methanolapillus(M. africanus、M. millepedarum、M. ohkumae)。该肠道支系的成员还包括来自白蚁和脊椎动物的未培养代表,其基因组(1.6-2.2 Mbp)比其他甲壳动物小得多。基因组的缩小伴随着伍德-荣格达尔途径上半部分、几个能量转换膜复合体(Fpo、Ech、Rnf)和各种生物合成途径的消失。不过,所有基因组中都保留了参与保护活性氧的基因(过氧化氢酶和超氧化物还原酶),包括细胞色素 bd(CydAB),这是一种高亲和性末端氧化酶,可能赋予了微需氧呼吸的能力。由于与宿主相关的甲烷弧菌嵌套在杂食性菌系中,我们得出结论,甲基的特化是对肠道环境的一种适应。

Candida species primarily exist as harmless commensals in the gastrointestinal tract of warm-blooded animals. However, they can also cause life-threatening infections, which are often associated with gut microbial dysbiosis. Identifying the microbial actors that restrict Candida to commensalism remains a significant challenge. In vitro models could enable a mechanistic study of the interactions between Candida and simulated colon microbiomes. Therefore, this study aimed to elucidate the spatial and temporal colonization kinetics of specific Candida, including C. albicans, C. tropicalis, and C. parapsilosis, and their relative Nakaseomyces glabratus, by using an adapted SHIME® model, simulating the ileum, and proximal and distal colons. We monitored fungal and bacterial colonization kinetics under conditions of eubiosis (commensal lifestyle) and antibiotic-induced dysbiosis (pathogenic lifestyle). Our findings highlighted the variability in the colonization potential of Candida species across different intestinal regions. The ileum compartment proved to be the most favourable environment for C. albicans and C. parapsilosis under conditions of eubiosis. Antibiotic-induced dysbiosis resulted in resurgence of opportunistic Candida species, especially C. tropicalis and C. albicans. Future research should focus on identifying specific bacterial species influencing Candida colonization resistance and explore the long-term effects of antibiotics on the mycobiome and bacteriome.

念珠菌主要作为无害的共生菌存在于温血动物的胃肠道中。然而,它们也能引起危及生命的感染,这通常与肠道微生物菌群失调有关。确定限制念珠菌共生的微生物角色仍然是一项重大挑战。体外模型可以对念珠菌与模拟结肠微生物群之间的相互作用进行机理研究。因此,本研究利用改良的 SHIME® 模型模拟回肠、近端和远端结肠,旨在阐明特定念珠菌(包括白念珠菌、热带念珠菌和副丝状念珠菌)及其亲缘种 Nakaseomyces glabratus 的空间和时间定植动力学。我们监测了真菌和细菌在优生(共生生活方式)和抗生素引起的菌群失调(致病生活方式)条件下的定植动力学。我们的研究结果表明,念珠菌在不同肠道区域的定植潜力存在差异。事实证明,在优生条件下,回肠是白念珠菌和副丝状念珠菌最有利的生长环境。抗生素引起的菌群失调导致机会性念珠菌,尤其是热带念珠菌和白念珠菌的重新出现。未来的研究应侧重于确定影响念珠菌定植耐药性的特定细菌种类,并探索抗生素对真菌生物群和细菌群的长期影响。

Rates of microbial growth are fundamental to understanding environmental geochemistry and ecology. However, measuring the heterogeneity of microbial activity at the single-cell level, especially within complex populations and environmental matrices, remains a forefront challenge. Stable isotope probing (SIP) is a method for assessing microbial growth and involves measuring the incorporation of an isotopic label into microbial biomass. Here, we assess Raman microspectroscopy as a SIP technique, specifically focusing on the measurement of deuterium (2H), a tracer of microbial biomass production. We correlatively measured cells grown in varying concentrations of deuterated water with both Raman spectroscopy and nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry (nanoSIMS), generating isotopic calibrations of microbial 2H. Relative to Raman, we find that nanoSIMS measurements of 2H are subject to substantial dilution due to rapid exchange of H during sample washing. We apply our Raman-derived calibration to a numerical model of microbial growth, explicitly parameterizing the factors controlling growth rate quantification and demonstrating that Raman-SIP can sensitively measure the growth of microorganisms with doubling times ranging from hours to years. The measurement of single-cell growth with Raman spectroscopy, a rapid, nondestructive technique, represents an important step toward application of single-cell analysis into complex sample matrices or cellular assemblages.

微生物的生长速率是了解环境地球化学和生态学的基础。然而,在单细胞水平上测量微生物活动的异质性,尤其是在复杂的种群和环境基质中测量微生物活动的异质性,仍然是一项前沿挑战。稳定同位素探测(SIP)是一种评估微生物生长的方法,涉及测量微生物生物量中同位素标签的结合情况。在这里,我们将拉曼微光谱技术作为一种 SIP 技术进行评估,特别是侧重于氘(2H)的测量,氘是微生物生物量产生的示踪剂。我们利用拉曼光谱和纳米级二次离子质谱(nanoSIMS)对生长在不同浓度氘化水中的细胞进行了相关测量,从而得出微生物 2H 的同位素定标。与拉曼光谱法相比,我们发现纳米级二次离子质谱法测量的 2H 会因样品洗涤过程中 H 的快速交换而被大量稀释。我们将源自拉曼的校准应用于微生物生长的数值模型,对控制生长率量化的因素进行了明确的参数化,并证明拉曼-SIP 可以灵敏地测量倍增时间从数小时到数年不等的微生物生长。拉曼光谱是一种快速、无损的技术,它对单细胞生长的测量是将单细胞分析应用于复杂样品基质或细胞组合的重要一步。

The measurement of single-cell growth with Raman spectroscopy, a rapid, nondestructive technique, represents an important step toward application of single-cell analysis into complex sample matrices or cellular assemblages.</p>","PeriodicalId":12312,"journal":{"name":"FEMS microbiology ecology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11347945/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141901478","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methanotrophs are the sole biological sink of methane. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) produced by heterotrophic bacteria have been demonstrated to be a potential modulating factor of methane consumption. Here, we identify and disentangle the impact of the volatolome of heterotrophic bacteria on the methanotroph activity and proteome, using Methylomonas as model organism. Our study unambiguously shows how methanotrophy can be influenced by other organisms without direct physical contact. This influence is mediated by VOCs (e.g. dimethyl-polysulphides) or/and CO2 emitted during respiration, which can inhibit growth and methane uptake of the methanotroph, while other VOCs had a stimulating effect on methanotroph activity. Depending on whether the methanotroph was exposed to the volatolome of the heterotroph or to CO2, proteomics revealed differential protein expression patterns with the soluble methane monooxygenase being the most affected enzyme. The interaction between methanotrophs and heterotrophs can have strong positive or negative effects on methane consumption, depending on the species interacting with the methanotroph. We identified potential VOCs involved in the inhibition while positive effects may be triggered by CO2 released by heterotrophic respiration. Our experimental proof of methanotroph-heterotroph interactions clearly calls for detailed research into strategies on how to mitigate methane emissions.

养甲烷菌是甲烷的唯一生物汇。异养细菌产生的挥发性有机化合物(VOCs)已被证明是甲烷消耗的潜在调节因素。在这里,我们以甲基单胞菌为模式生物,识别并厘清了异养细菌的挥发性有机化合物对甲烷营养体活性和蛋白质组的影响。我们的研究明确显示了甲烷营养如何在没有直接物理接触的情况下受到其他生物的影响。这种影响由挥发性有机化合物(如二甲基多硫化物)或/和呼吸过程中排放的二氧化碳介导,它们可以抑制甲烷营养体的生长和甲烷吸收,而其他挥发性有机化合物则对甲烷营养体的活性有刺激作用。根据甲烷营养体暴露于异养生物的挥发物还是二氧化碳,蛋白质组学发现了不同的蛋白质表达模式,其中受影响最大的酶是可溶性甲烷单加氧酶。甲烷营养体与异养生物之间的相互作用会对甲烷消耗产生强烈的积极或消极影响,这取决于与甲烷营养体相互作用的物种。我们发现潜在的挥发性有机化合物参与了抑制作用,而正效应可能是由异养生物呼吸释放的二氧化碳引发的。我们对甲烷营养体与异养生物相互作用的实验证明,显然需要对如何减少甲烷排放的策略进行详细研究。

Thermophilic acetogenic bacteria have attracted attention as promising candidates for biotechnological applications such as syngas fermentation, microbial electrosynthesis, and methanol conversion. Here, we aimed to isolate and characterize novel thermophilic acetogens from diverse environments. Enrichment of heterotrophic and autotrophic acetogens was monitored by 16S rRNA gene-based bacterial community analysis. Seven novel Moorella strains were isolated and characterized by genomic and physiological analyses. Two Moorella humiferrea isolates showed considerable differences during autotrophic growth. The M. humiferrea LNE isolate (DSM 117358) fermented carbon monoxide (CO) to acetate, while the M. humiferrea OCP isolate (DSM 117359) transformed CO to hydrogen and carbon dioxide (H2 + CO2), employing the water-gas shift reaction. Another carboxydotrophic hydrogenogenic Moorella strain was isolated from the covering soil of an active charcoal burning pile and proposed as the type strain (ACPsT) of the novel species Moorella carbonis (DSM 116161T and CCOS 2103T). The remaining four novel strains were affiliated with Moorella thermoacetica and showed, together with the type strain DSM 2955T, the production of small amounts of ethanol from H2 + CO2 in addition to acetate. The physiological analyses of the novel Moorella strains revealed isolate-specific differences that considerably increase the knowledge base on thermophilic acetogens for future applications.

嗜热醋酸菌作为合成气发酵、微生物电合成和甲醇转化等生物技术应用的有前途的候选菌种,已经引起了人们的关注。在此,我们旨在从不同环境中分离和鉴定新型嗜热醋酸菌。通过基于 16S rRNA 基因的细菌群落分析,监测了异养和自养醋酸菌的富集情况。通过基因组和生理学分析,分离并鉴定了七株新的 Moorella 菌株。其中两株Moorella humiferrea分离株在自养生长过程中表现出相当大的差异。M. humiferrea LNE 分离物(DSM 117358)将一氧化碳(CO)发酵成醋酸盐,而 M. humiferrea OCP 分离物(DSM 117359)则利用水气转移反应将 CO 转化成氢气和二氧化碳(H2 + CO2)。从活性炭燃烧堆的覆盖土壤中分离出了另一株羧营养产氢 Moorella 菌株,并将其作为新物种 Moorella carbonis 的模式菌株(ACPsT)(DSM 116161T,CCOS 2103T)。其余四株新菌株隶属于热乙酸莫雷拉菌,与模式菌株 DSM 2955T 一样,除了乙酸之外,还能从 H2 + CO2 中产生少量乙醇。对新型莫雷拉菌株的生理学分析表明,这些菌株的分离特异性差异大大增加了嗜热醋酸菌的知识库,有利于今后的应用。
