Project description:Members of the fungal genus Armillaria are necrotrophic pathogens with efficient plant biomass-degrading strategies. Armillaria species are some of the largest terrestrial organisms on Earth that cause tremendous losses in diverse ecosystems. Despite their global importance, how Armillaria evolved pathogenicity in a clade of dominantly non-pathogenic wood-degraders (Agaricales) remains elusive. Here, using new genomic data, we show that Armillaria species, in addition to widespread gene duplications and de novo gene origins, appear to have acquired at least 1025 genes via 124 horizontal gene transfer (HGT) events, primarily from Ascomycota donors. Functional and expression data suggest that HGT might have affected plant biomass-degrading and virulence abilities of Armillaria, two pivotal traits in their lifestyle. HGT provides an explanation for their soft-rot like biomass degrading strategy too, which is markedly different from the primarily white rot decay mechanism of related species. Combined multi-species expression data revealed putative virulence factors, extensive regulation of horizontally acquired and wood-decay related genes as well as novel noserved pathogenicity-induced small secreted proteins (PiSSPs). Two PiSSPs induced necrosis in live plants, suggesting they are potential virulence effectors conserved across Armillaria. Overall, this study details how evolution knitted together horizontally and vertically inherited genes in complex adaptive traits, such as plant biomass degradation and pathogenicityin one of the most influential fungal pathogens of temperate forest ecosystems.

Project description:Microbial communities that degrade lignocellulosic biomass are typified by high levels of species- and strain-level complexity, as well as synergistic interactions between both cellulolytic and non-cellulolytic microorganisms. Here we deconvoluted a highly efficient cellulose-degrading and methanogenic consortium (SEM1b) that is co-dominated by Clostridium (Ruminiclostridium) thermocellum and multiple heterogenic strains affiliated to C. proteolyticus. A time-series analysis was performed over the entire lifetime span of the microbial community and comprised of metagenomic, metatranscriptomic, metabolomics, metaproteomic and 16S rRNA gene analysis for 8 time points, in triplicate. Metagenomic analysis of SEM1b recovered metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) for each constituent population, whereas in parallel two novel strains of C. proteolyticus were isolated and sequenced. Both the recovered MAGs and the isolated strains were used as a database for further functional meta-omics. Absolute quantitative metatranscriptomics was performed thanks the spike-in of an in vitro transcribed RNA as an internal standard and label-free quantification was used for the metaproteomic analysis. The present dataset has been used for several publications. The first aim of the project was to characterize the interactions between uncultured populations in a lignocellulose-degrading community. Furthermore, because of the in-depth multi-omics characterization of the community, the dataset was used to develop new approaches for meta-omics integration as well as to assess the protein-to-RNA ratio of multiple microbial populations simultaneously. Modifications of multi-omics toolkits allowed us to assess the linearity between transcriptome and proteome for each population over time and reveal deeper functional-related trends and integrative co-dependent metabolisms that drive the overall phenotype of microbial communities.

Project description:Genomic analysis of the model lignocellulosic biomass degrading bacteria C. phytofermentans indicates that it can degrade, transport, and utilize a wide-range of carbohydrates as possible growth substrates. Previous experiments characterized the expression of the degradation and transport machinery using custom whole genome oligonucleotide microarrays. The results indicate that C. phytofermentans utilizes ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters for carbohydrate uptake and does not use the sole phosphoenolpyruvate-phosphotransferase system (PTS) for any of the tested substrates. While some ABC transporters are specific for a single carbohydrate, the expression profiles indicate that others may be capable of transporting multiple substrates. Distinct sets of Carbohydrate Active Enzymes (CAZy) genes were also up-regulated on specific substrates indicative of C. phytofermentans ability to selectively degrade plant biomass. We also identified a highly expressed cluster of genes which includes seven extracellular glycoside hydrolases and two ABC transporters with unknown specificity. These results lead to the hypothesis that when grown on plant biomass, C. phytofermentans is capable of degrading and transporting all major carbohydrate components of the plant cell. To test this, C. phytofermentans was grown on cornstover and switchgrass. Results from this expression data and HPLC analysis indicates that C. phytofermentans is utilizing multiple substrates. with multiple sugar ABC transporter clusters and glycoside hydrolases being expressed. Interestingly all of the transporters were initially identified on disaccharides or oligio-saccharides, and none of the transporters identified as monosaccharide specific transporters were expressed. This could be an indication that C. phytofermentans prefers to transport oligiosacchrides over monosaccharides. The results presented here corroborate the genomic data which indicates the breath of the carbohydrate degradation, transport, and utilization machinery of C. phytofermentans. C. phytofermentans was cultured anaerobically on switchgrass and corn stover to determine specific expression patterns. The data in this series consists three independent RNA preparations from replicate cultures.

Project description:Chemical signaling in the plant microbiome can have drastic effects on microbial community structure, and on host growth and development. Previously, we demonstrated that the auxin metabolic signal interference performed by the bacterial genus Variovorax via a novel auxin degradation locus was essential for maintaining stereotypic root development in an ecologically-relevant bacterial synthetic community. Here, we dissect the Variovorax auxin degradation locus to define the genes necessary and sufficient for indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) degradation and signal interference. We determine the crystal structures and binding properties of the operon’s MarR-family repressor with IAA and other auxins. We identify auxin-degradation operons across the bacterial tree of life and define two distinct types based on gene content and metabolic products: iac-like and iad-like. We solve the structures of MarRs from representatives of each auxin degradation operon type, establishing that each have distinct IAA binding pockets. Comparison of representative IAA degrading strains from diverse bacterial genera show that while all degrade IAA, only strains containing iad-like auxin degrading operons interfere with auxin signaling in a complex synthetic community context. This suggests that iad-like operon containing strains, including Variovorax species, play a key ecological role in modulating auxins in the plant microbiome.

Project description:Clipping (i.e., harvesting aboveground plant biomass) is common in agriculture and for bioenergy production. However, microbial responses to clipping in the context of climate warming are poorly understood. We investigated the interactive effects of grassland warming and clipping on soil properties, plant and microbial communities, in particular microbial functional genes. Clipping alone did not change the plant biomass production, but warming and clipping combined increased the C4 peak biomass by 47% and belowground net primary production by 110%. Clipping alone and in combination with warming decreased the soil carbon input from litter by 81% and 75%, respectively. With less carbon input, the abundances of genes involved in degrading relatively recalcitrant carbon increased by 38-137% in response to either clipping or the combined treatment, which could weaken the long-term soil carbon stability and trigger a positive feedback to warming. Clipping alone also increased the abundance of genes for nitrogen fixation, mineralization and denitrification by 32-39%. The potentially stimulated nitrogen fixation could help compensate for the 20% decline in soil ammonium caused by clipping alone, and contribute to unchanged plant biomass. Moreover, clipping tended to interact antagonistically with warming, especially on nitrogen cycling genes, demonstrating that single factor studies cannot predict multifactorial changes. These results revealed that clipping alone or in combination with warming altered soil and plant properties, as well as the abundance and structure of soil microbial functional genes. The aboveground biomass removal for biofuel production needs to be re-considered as the long-term soil carbon stability may be weakened.
