Project description:We used wheat as rotational crop to assess the influence of continuous cropping on microbiome in Pinellia ternata rhizosphere and the remediation of rotational cropping to the impacted microbiota. Illumina high-throughput sequencing technology was utilized for this method to explore the rhizosphere microbial structure and diversity based on continuous and rotational cropping.

Project description:The hormonal contraceptive medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) is associated with increased risk of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), via incompletely understood mechanisms. Increased diversity in the vaginal microbiota modulates genital inflammation and is associated with increased HIV-1 acquisition. However, the effect of MPA on diversity of the vaginal microbiota is relatively unknown. In a cohort of female Kenyan sex workers, negative for sexually transmitted infections (STIs), with Nugent scores <7 (N=58 of 370 screened), MPA correlated with significantly increased diversity of the vaginal microbiota as assessed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. MPA was also significantly associated with decreased levels of estrogen in the plasma, and low vaginal glycogen and α-amylase, factors implicated in vaginal colonization by lactobacilli, bacteria that are believed to protect against STIs. In a humanized mouse model, MPA treatment was associated with low serum estrogen, low glycogen and enhanced HIV-1 susceptibility. The mechanism by which the MPA mediated changes in the vaginal microbiota may contribute to HIV-1 susceptibility in humans appears to be independent of inflammatory cytokines and/or activated T cells. Altogether, these results suggest MPA-induced hypo-estrogenism may alter key metabolic components that are necessary for vaginal colonization by certain bacterial species including lactobacilli, and allow for greater bacterial diversity in the vaginal microbiota.

Project description:Advances in DNA sequencing technologies has drastically changed our perception of the structure and complexity of the plant microbiome. By comparison, our ability to accurately identify the metabolically active fraction of soil microbiota and its specific functional role in augmenting plant health is relatively limited. Here, we combined our recently developed protein extraction method and an iterative bioinformatics pipeline to enable the capture and identification of extracellular proteins (metaexoproteomics) synthesised in the rhizosphere of Brassica spp. We first validated our method in the laboratory by successfully identifying proteins related to a host plant (Brassica rapa) and its bacterial inoculant, Pseudomonas putida BIRD-1. This identified numerous rhizosphere specific proteins linked to the acquisition of plant-derived nutrients in P. putida. Next, we analysed natural field-soil microbial communities associated with Brassica napus L. (oilseed rape). By combining metagenomics with metaexoproteomics, 1882 proteins were identified across bulk and rhizosphere samples. Meta-exoproteomics identified a clear shift (p<0.001) in the metabolically active fraction of the soil microbiota responding to the presence of B. napus roots that was not apparent in the composition of the total microbial community (metagenome). This metabolic shift was associated with the stimulation of rhizosphere-specialised bacteria, such as Gammaproteobacteria, Betaproteobacteria and Flavobacteriia and the upregulation of plant beneficial functions related to phosphorus and nitrogen mineralisation. Together, our metaproteomic assessment of the ‘active’ plant microbiome at the field-scale demonstrates the importance of moving past a genomic assessment of the plant microbiome in order to determine ecologically important plant-microbe interactions underpinning plant health.

Project description:Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a common state of the vaginal microbiota characterized by increased bacterial diversity and decreased Lactobacillus abundance. Using untargeted metaproteomics, we identified host and bacterial proteins in a set of 29 cervicovaginal lavage samples from people with and without BV which revealed functions and interactions that likely contribute to BV.

Project description:Cover cropping is an effective method to protect agricultural soils from erosion, promote nutrient and moisture retention, encourage beneficial microbial activity, and maintain soil structure. Reusing winter cover crop root channels with the maize roots during the summer allows the cash crop to extract resources from farther niches in the soil horizon. In this study, we investigate how reusing winter cover crop root channels to grow maize (Zea mays L.) affects the composition and function of the bacterial communities in the rhizosphere using 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing and metaproteomics. We discovered that the bacterial community significantly differed among cover crop variations, soil profile depths, and maize growth stages. Re-usage of the root channels increased bacterial abundance, and it further increases as we elevate the complexity from monocultures to mixtures. Upon mixing legumes with brassicas and grasses, the overall expression of several steps of the carbon cycle (C) and the nitrogen cycle (N) improved. The deeper root channels of legumes and brassicas compared to grasses correlated with higher bacterial 16S rRNA gene copy numbers and community roles in the respective variations in the subsoil regimes due to the increased availability of root exudates secreted by maize roots. In conclusion, root channel re-use (monocultures and mixtures) improved the expression of metabolic pathways of the important C and N cycles, and the bacterial communities, which is beneficial to the soil rhizosphere as well as to the growing crops.
