Project description:Full reciprocal transfer of microbiomes between nine host strains of phytoplankton and microbe-free controls (Kuijpers et al unpublished). Microbiomes were naturally recruited from lake and stream water in an assembly experiment (Broe et al unpublished). Transferred microbiomes were added to axenic hosts and grown for 7 or 14 days before control or heat shock treatment.
Project description:<p>Cyanobacterial blooms result from continued short-term succession of planktonic microbiomes, but these short-term variations are little known. Here we address this question with a field diel study in Lake Tai. By integrating untargeted metabolomics—verified by targeted metabolomics—and metagenomics, we reveal the diel cycle of planktonic microbiome in Lake Tai are highly dynamic and complex. First, metabolite abundance and their molecular mass display clear diel changes along with shift in the taxon abundance and biological functions, following the same environmental factors. Some taxa and biological functions (reactions) are highly correlated with the metabolite abundance, and large compounds appear to be more taxon specific. Second, phytoplanktonic and overall planktonic microbiome showed different temporal variation of abundance, opposite levels of abundance and different molecular sizes, and different inter- and intra-specific diversity dynamics. Last, planktonic microbiomes are highly dynamic and complex in inter- and intraspecific diversity in merely one diel cycle, which point to different temperature preference between species, Microcystis aeruginosa and Anabaena sp. This difference was experimentally confirmed in laboratory. Using a multi-omics approach, our study underscores the importance of diel interaction triad between population abundance, biological functions, and environmental factors in leading to microbiome structural change and blooms.</p>

Project description:Gymnocypris przewalskii przewalskii is distributed in Qinghai Lake, the largest inland saltwater lake in China. It is the only Cyprinidae fish in the Qinghai Lake water system and has extremely strong adaptability to the ecological environment with high salinity. G. p. przewalskii originates from the freshwater species Gymnocypris eckloni eckloni in the Yellow River and has a freshwater subspecies, Gymnocypris przewalskii ganzihonensis, distributed in the Ganzi River. Therefore, G. p. przewalskii is considered an ideal material for studying the high salt adaptation of plateau fish. Previous studies have characterized the evolutionary basis of highland adaptation in G. p. przewalskii; however, its adaptability to highly saline aquatic environments remains elusive. In the current study, we performed physiological, histological, genomic and transcriptomic analyses to investigate the phenotypical adaptation of G. p. przewalskii to a high saline environment and the underlying genomic and regulatory bases.
