Project description:Sorghum bicolor is one of the most important cereal crops in the world, predominantly grown in sub‑Saharan Africa by smallholder farmers. Despite its outstanding resilience to abiotic stresses, approximately 20% of sorghum yield is annually lost on the African continent due to infestation with the parasitic weed Striga hermonthica. Existing Striga management strategies to decrease Striga infestation often show low efficiency and are not easily integrated into current agricultural practices. Microbial-based solutions may prove an effective, low-cost mode for reducing Striga parasitism in sub-Saharan Africa. Here, we demonstrate that the microbiome component of a field soil suppresses Striga infection of sorghum. Potential mechanisms underlying the soil microbiome’s influence on the host plant include root endodermal suberization and aerenchyma formation. Moreover, we observed a depletion of haustorium inducing factors, compounds essential for Striga to establish the host-parasite association, in root exudates collected from sorghum grown in the presence of the soil microbiome as compared to sterile conditions. We further identified individual microbial taxa associated with reduced Striga infection via changes in root cellular anatomy and differentiation as well as in exudate composition. Our study identifies a suite of traits that can be harnessed by individual microbial isolates or their consortia to induce Striga resistance. Combining microbes that elicit Striga resistance directly (affecting the parasite) via repression of haustorium formation with those that act indirectly (affecting the host), by reducing of Striga penetration through root tissue, can broaden the effectiveness of microbe-induced protection from Striga.

Project description:To study whether and how soil nitrogen conditions affect the ecological effects of long-term elevated CO2 on microbial community and soil ecoprocess, here we investigated soil microbial community in a grassland ecosystem subjected to ambient CO2 (aCO2, 368 ppm), elevated CO2 (eCO2, 560 ppm), ambient nitrogen deposition (aN) or elevated nitrogen deposition (eN) treatments for a decade. Under the aN condition, a majority of microbial function genes, as measured by GeoChip 4.0, were increased in relative abundance or remained unchanged by eCO2. Under the eN condition, most of functional genes associated with carbon, nitrogen and sulfur cycling, energy processes, organic remediation and stress responses were decreased or remained unchanged by eCO2, while genes associated with antibiotics and metal resistance were increased. The eCO2 effects on fungi and archaea were largely similar under both nitrogen conditions, but differed substantially for bacteria. Coupling of microbial carbon or nitrogen cycling genes, represented by positive percentage and density of gene interaction in association networks, was higher under the aN condition. In accordance, changes of soil CO2 flux, net N mineralization, ammonification and nitrification was higher under the aN condition. Collectively, these results demonstrated that eCO2 effects are contingent on nitrogen conditions, underscoring the difficulty toward predictive modeling of soil ecosystem and ecoprocesses under future climate scenarios and necessitating more detailed studies. Fourty eight samples were collected for four different carbon and nitrogen treatment levels (aCaN,eCaN,aCeN and eCeN) ; Twelve replicates in every elevation

Project description:Petroleum hydrocarbons are recalcitrant contaminants, which has caused most serious environmental problems. Acinetobacter calcoaceticus Aca13 was isolated from petroleum polluted soil for petroleum biodegradation. Hexadecane and naphthalene were used to incubate with Acinetobacter calcoaceticus Aca13. After incubation, the whole transcriptome was obtained from treated groups and control groups, and then used for RNA sequence and analysis. Obtained data in this project will help us understand the biodegradation mechanism of hexadecane and naphthalene, and will be helpful for the bioremediation of petroleum hydrocarbons.
