Project description:The Baltic Sea is one of the largest brackish water bodies in the world. Redoxclines that form between oxic and anoxic layers in the deepest sub-basins are a semi-permanent character of the pelagic Baltic Sea. The microbially mediated nitrogen removal processes in these redoxclines have been recognized as important ecosystem service that removes large proportion of the nitrogen load originating from the drainage basin. However, nitrification, which links mineralization of organic nitrogen and nitrogen removal processes, has remained poorly understood. To gain better understanding of the nitrogen cycling in the Baltic Sea, we analyzed the assemblage of ammonia oxidizing bacteria and archaea in the central Baltic Sea using functional gene microarrays and measured the biogeochemical properties along with potential nitrification rates. Overall, the ammonia oxidizer communities in the Baltic Sea redoxcline were very evenly distributed. However, the communities were clearly different between the eastern and western Gotland Basin and the correlations between different components of the ammonia oxidizer assemblages and environmental variables suggest ecological basis for the community composition. The more even community ammonia oxidizer composition in the eastern Gotland Basin may be related to the constantly oscillating redoxcline that does not allow domination of single archetype. The oscillating redoxcline also creates long depth range of optimal nitrification conditions. The rate measurements suggest that nitrification in the central Baltic Sea is able to produce all nitrate required by denitrification occurring below the nitrification zone.

Project description:Previous studies have shown that methane (CH4) has promoting roles in the adventitious root (AR) and lateral root formation in plants. However, whether CH4 could trigger the bulblet formation in scale cutting of Lilium davidii var. unicolor has not been elucidated. To gain insight into the effect of CH4 on the bulblet formation, different concentrations (1%, 10%，50% and 100%) of methane-rich water (MRW) and distilled water were applied to treat the scale cuttings of Lilium. We observed that treatment with 100% MRW obviously induced the bulblet formation in scale cuttings. To explore the mechanism of CH4-induced the bulblet formation, the transcriptome of scales was analyzed. A total of 2078 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified. The DEGs were classified into different metabolism pathways, especially phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, starch and sucrose metabolism and plant signal transduction. Of these, approximately 38 candidate DEGs involved in the plant signal transduction were further studied. In addition, the expression of AP2-ERF/ERF, WRKY, GRAS, ARF and NAC transcription factors were changed by MRW treatment, suggesting their potential involvement in bulblet formation. As for hormones, exogenous IAA, GA and ABA could indue the bulblet formation. Additional experiments suggested that MRW could increase the endogenous IAA, GA, and JA levels, but decrease the levels of ABA during bulblet formation, which showed that higher IAA, GA, JA levels and lower ABA content might facilitate bulblet formation. In addition, the levels of endogenous hormone were consistent with the expression level of genes involved in phytohormone signal transduction. Overall, this study has revealed that CH4 might improve the bulblet formation of cutting scales in Lilium by regulating the expression of genes related to phytohormone signal transduction and transcription factors, as well as by changing the endogenous hormone levels.

Project description:The objective of this study was to assess whether Methylocystis sp. strain SC2, as a representative for Methylocystis spp., can utilize hydrogen to optimize the biomass yield by mixed utilization of CH4 and H2, rather than CH4 as the sole source of energy. Thus, we aimed to show that, in the presence of H2, CH4 will primarily be used for synthesis of cell carbon and increased biomass/protein yield. In particular, we intended to explore those CH4/O2 ratios, which maximize the effect of hydrogen addition on the biomass yield and proteome reconstruction of strain SC2. To achieve our goals, we combined hydrogen-based growth experiments with our recently optimized proteomics workflow.

Two color array (Cy3 and Cy5): the universal standard 20-mer oligo is printed to the slide with a 70-mer oligo (an archetype). Environmental DNA sequences (fluoresced with Cy3) within 15% of the 70-mer conjugated to a 20-mer oligo (fluoresced with Cy5) complementary to the universal standard will bind to the oligo probes on the array. Signal is the ratio of Cy3 to Cy5. Three replicate probes were printed for each archetype. Two replicate arrays were run on duplicate targets.

Project description:The community composition (in terms of abundance, distribution and contribution of diverse clades) of bacteria involved in nitrogen transformations in the oxygen minimum zones may be related to the rates of fixed N loss in these systems. The abundance of both denirifying and anammox bacteria, and the assemblage composition of denitrifying bacteria were investigated in the Eastern Tropical South Pacific and the Arabian Sea using assays based on molecular markers for the two groups of bacteria. The abundance and distribution of bacteria associated with the fixed N removal processes denitrification and anammox were investigated using quantitative PCR for genes encoding nitrite reductase (nirK and nirS) in denitrifying bacteria and hydrazine oxidase(hzo) and 16S rRNA genesin anammox bacteria. All of these genes had depth distributions with maxima associated with the secondary nitrite maximum in low oxygen waters. NirS was mch more abundant than nirK, and much more abundant than the 16S rRNA gene from anammox bacteria. The ratio of hzo:16S rRNA for anammox was low and variable implying greater unexplored diversity in the the hzo gene. Assemblage composition of the abundant nirS-type denitrifiers was evaluated using a funcitonal gene microarray. Of the nirS archetypes represented on the microarray, very few occurred speficically in one region or depth interval, but the assemblages varied significantly. Community composition of denitrifiers based on microarray analysis of the nirS gene was most different between geographical regions. Within each region, the surface layer and OMZ assemblages clustered distinctly. Thus, in addition to spatial and temporal variation in denitrificaiton and anammox rates, both microbial abundance and community composition also vary between OMZ regions and depths.
