Project description:Bioavailability of electron acceptors is probably the most limiting factor in the restoration of anoxic, contaminated environments. The oxidation of contaminants such as aromatic hydrocarbons, particularly in aquifers, often depends on the reduction of ferric iron or sulphate. We have previously detected a highly active fringe zone beneath a toluene plume at a tar-oil contaminated aquifer in Germany, where a specialized community of contaminant degraders co-dominated by Desulfobulbaceae and Geobacteraceae had established. Although on-site geochemistry links degradation to sulphidogenic processes, dominating catabolic (benzylsuccinate synthase alpha-subunit, bssA) genes detected in situ appeared more related to those of Geobacter spp. Therefore, a stable isotope probing (SIP) incubation of sediment samples with 13C7-toluene and comparative electron acceptor amendment was performed. We introduce pyrosequencing of templates from SIP microcosms as a powerful new strategy in SIP gradient interpretation (Pyro-SIP). Our results reveal the central role of Desulfobulbaceae for sulphidogenic toluene degradation in situ, and affiliate the detected bssA genes to this lineage. This, and the absence of 13C-labelled DNA of Geobacter spp. in SIP gradients preclude their relevance as toluene degraders in situ. In contrast, Betaproteobacteria related to Georgfuchsia spp. became labelled under iron-reducing conditions. Furthermore, secondary toluene degraders belonging to the Peptococcaceae detected in both treatments suggest the possibility of functional redundancy amongst anaerobic toluene degraders on site. 2 samples examined from the different electron-acceptors (sulphate or ferric iron) incubates at the time point of maximal toluene degradation.

Project description:Thiabendazole (TBZ), a benzimidazole used against postharvest fungal growth and as anthelmintic in livestock farming, is highly persistent in soil (DT50> 1-2 years) and therefore challenging concerning its environmental management. In our recent copious attempts to isolate organisms that degrade TBZ, at best, we ended up with a soil microbial enrichment capable of accelerated TBZ degradation. Here, we employed a multi-omic approach combined with DNA stable isotope probing (SIP) for elucidating the underlying system complexity. We obtained 18 high-quality metagenome-assembled genomes, with six being dominant and versatile concerning their putative xenobiotics degradation ability. SIP combined with microbiome analysis verified our previous results about the key role of a Sphingomonas strain in TBZ degradation. Next to this, metabolomics suggested minimal/no cross-feeding events, and Sphingomonas being the sole TBZ degrader. RNA sequencing and proteomics analysis of the consortium using TBZ or succinate as sole carbon sources showed the enhanced expression in Sphingomonas of a carbazole dioxygenase locus with putative role in the TBZ degradation. Gene expression networking analysis suggested the interaction of Sphingomonas with a Hydrogenophaga strain that possibly contributes to the overall cobalamin balance. Our study depicts the need for integrated omic approaches for understanding complex interactions frequently occurring in bioremediation.

Project description:Transcriptomic changes following recent natural hybridization and allopolyploidy in the salt marsh species Spartina x townsendii and Spartina anglica (Poaceae) Allopolyploidy results from two events: the merger of divergent genomes and genome duplication. Both events have important functional consequences for the evolution and adaption of newly formed allopolyploid species. In spite of significant progress made the last years, a few studies have decoupled the effects of hybridization from genome duplication in the observed patterns of expression changes accompanying allopolyploidy in natural conditions. We used Agilent Rice oligo-microarrays to explore gene expression changes following allopolyploidy in Spartina that includes a classical example of recent allopolyploid speciation, S. anglica formed during the 19th century following genome duplication of the hybrid S. x townsendii. Our data indicate important, thought different effects of hybridization and genome duplication in the expression patterns of the hybrid and allopolyploid. Deviation from parental additivity was most important following hybridization and was accompanied by maternal expression dominance, although transgressively expressed genes were also encountered. Maternal dominance is attenuated following genome duplication in S. anglica while this species exhibits an increased number of transgressively over expressed genes. These results reflect the decoupled effects of the “genomic shock” following hybridization and genome redundancy, on the genetic, epigenetic and regulatory mechanisms characterizing transcriptomic evolution in allopolyploids. We used Agilent Rice oligo-microarrays to explore gene expression changes among Spartina species, following interspesific hybridization and genome duplication (allopolyploidy). The analysed species included the parents S. maritima & S.alterniflora, the hybrid F1 S x. towensendii and the allopolyploid S.anglica. A total of 20 slides (five replicates per species) were hybridized on a 44 K Rice Agilent array using a one color desgin.
