Project description:To determine microbiota composition associated with loss of KDM5 in intestine, we carried out 16S rRNA seq analyses of dissected intestine from wildtype and kdm5 mutant. [GSM2628181-GSM2628190]. A total of 78 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified in the sequence data. There were about 15 genera much less abundant in kdm5 mutant compared to wildtype. The kdm5 mutant were sensitive to pathogen. To confirm the microbiota associated with loss of KDM5 in intestine, 16S rRNA of new flies were sequenced and analyzed by Majorbio Bio-Pharm Technology Co. Ltd. (Shanghai, China) [GSM3243472-GSM3243481]. A total of 107 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified in the sequence data. There were about 20 genera much less abundant in kdm5 mutant compared to wildtype. To confirm the microbiota associated with loss of KDM5 drosophila feeding with Lactobacillus plantarum, 16S rRNA of kdm5 mutant flies were sequenced and analyzed by Novogene Bioinformatics Technology Co., Ltd. (Tianjin, China) [GSM3263522-GSM3263527]. A total of 92 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified in the sequence data. To confirm the microbiota associated with KDM5 knockdown in intestine, 16S rRNA of Myo1A-Gal4TS/+ and Myo1A-Gal4TS/+;+/kdm5RNAi flies were sequenced and analyzed by Biomarker Co. Ltd. (Beijing, China). [GSM3507915-GSM3507924]. A total of 50 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified in the sequence data. There was a significant different based on the genus level between two groups.

Project description:ddRAD sequencing data to resolve the evolutionnary history of three Coenonympha butterflies
Project description:The advent of culture independent approaches has greatly facilitated insights into the vast diversity of bacteria and the ecological importance they hold in nature and human health. Recently, metagenomic surveys and other culture-independent methods have begun to describe the distribution and diversity of microbial metabolism across environmental conditions, often using 16S rRNA gene as a marker to group bacteria into taxonomic units. However, the extent to which similarity at the conserved ribosomal 16S gene correlates with different measures of phylogeny, metabolic diversity, and ecologically relevant gene content remains contentious. Here, we examine the relationship between 16S identity, core genome divergence, and metabolic gene content across the ancient and ecologically important genus Streptomyces. We assessed and quantified the high variability of average nucleotide identity (ANI) and ortholog presence/absence within Streptomyces, even in strains identical by 16S. Furthermore, we identified key differences in shared ecologically important characters, such as antibiotic resistance, carbohydrate metabolism, biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs), and other metabolic hallmarks, within 16S identities commonly treated as the same operational taxonomic units (OTUs). Differences between common phylogenetic measures and metabolite-gene annotations confirmed this incongruence. Our results highlight the metabolic diversity and variability within OTUs and add to the growing body of work suggesting 16S-based studies of Streptomyces fail to resolve important ecological and metabolic characteristics.
