Project description:Second instar larvae of the monarch butterfly, Danaus plexippus, from a nonmigratory population in Irapuato, Mexico, were reared for twenty-four hours on three species of milkweed hosts: Asclepias curassavica, A. linaria, and Gomphocarpus physocarpus. The greatest differences in coding gene expression occurred in genes controlling growth and detoxification and were most extreme in comparisons between G. physocarpus and the two Asclepias. MicroRNAs are predicted to be involved as regulators of many of these processes, in particular miR-278 could be an important regulator of growth through Hippo signaling.

Project description:Environmental influences such as infections and dietary changes strongly affect a host’s microbiota. In the steady state, however, host genetics may influence the microbiota composition, as suggested by the greater similarity between the microbiomes of identical twin pairs compared to non-identical twins. Understanding the role of polymorphic mechanisms in regulating the commensal communities is complicated by the variability of human genomes and microbiomes, and by microbial sensitivity to the environment. Animal studies allow genetic modifications, but are also sensitive to influences known as ‘cage’ or ‘legacy’ effects. Here, we analyzed ex-germ-free mice of various genetic backgrounds, including immunodeficient and Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC)-congenic strains repopulated with identical input microbiota. We found that the host’s genetic polymorphic mechanisms did indeed affect the gut microbiome and that both innate (e.g. anti-microbial peptides, complement, pentraxins and enzymes affecting microbial survival), as well as adaptive (both MHC-dependent and MHC-independent) pathways influenced the microbiota. These polymorphic mechanisms regulated only a limited number of microbial lineages (independently of their abundance). In addition, our comparative analyses suggested that some microbes might benefit from the specific immune responses that they elicit.

Project description:The goal of this growth chamber experiment was to investigate the effects of diverse soil microbial communities on the transcriptional responses of plants to drought. Specifically, we sought to understand how soil microbiomes' past exposure to water-limited conditions (either long-term exposure to dry conditions in low-precipitation sites, or recent acute drought) impacted their interactions with plants. Six soils collected from remnant prairies crossing a steep precipitation gradient in Kansas, USA were used as the starting microbial communities. Thirty-two pots (or mesocosms) of each soil were divided among four treatments: droughted or well-watered, and with or without a host plant (Tripsacum dactyloides) in a factorial design. The soil mesocosms were "conditioned" in these treatments for five months. (Metagenome and metatranscriptome data from the baseline soils and the post-conditioning soils are available in a separate BioProject on NCBI SRA and GEO). Then, a microbial slurry extracted from each of the 192 conditioned soils was used to inoculate 4 plants in a subsequent experiment (the “Test Phase”): one pot per combination of watering treatment (droughted or control) and host species (Zea mays or Tripsacum dactyloides). After 4 weeks (for maize) or 5 weeks (for eastern gamagrass) we harvested one crown root per plant for 16S rRNA sequencing and another crown root for RNA-seq. The 16S and RNA-seq data for these plants (both species) are contained in this BioProject. Note that 16S rRNA sequencing data are available for all plants in this experiment, but we conducted RNA-seq only for a subset (all plants grown in microbiomes originating from the 2 driest and 2 wettest collection sites).

Project description:The rate, timing, and mode of species dispersal is recognized as a key driver of the structure and function of communities of macroorganisms, and may be one ecological process that determines the diversity of microbiomes. Many previous studies have quantified the modes and mechanisms of bacterial motility using monocultures of a few model bacterial species. But most microbes live in multispecies microbial communities, where direct interactions between microbes may inhibit or facilitate dispersal through a number of physical (e.g., hydrodynamic) and biological (e.g., chemotaxis) mechanisms, which remain largely unexplored. Using cheese rinds as a model microbiome, we demonstrate that physical networks created by filamentous fungi can impact the extent of small-scale bacterial dispersal and can shape the composition of microbiomes. From the cheese rind of Saint Nectaire, we serendipitously observed the bacterium Serratia proteamaculans actively spreads on networks formed by the fungus Mucor. By experimentally recreating these pairwise interactions in the lab, we show that Serratia spreads on actively growing and previously established fungal networks. The extent of symbiotic dispersal is dependent on the fungal network: diffuse and fast-growing Mucor networks provide the greatest dispersal facilitation of the Serratia species, while dense and slow-growing Penicillium networks provide limited dispersal facilitation. Fungal-mediated dispersal occurs in closely related Serratia species isolated from other environments, suggesting that this bacterial-fungal interaction is widespread in nature. Both RNA-seq and transposon mutagenesis point to specific molecular mechanisms that play key roles in this bacterial-fungal interaction, including chitin utilization and flagellin biosynthesis. By manipulating the presence and type of fungal networks in multispecies communities, we provide the first evidence that fungal networks shape the composition of bacterial communities, with Mucor networks shifting experimental bacterial communities to complete dominance by motile Proteobacteria. Collectively, our work demonstrates that these strong biophysical interactions between bacterial and fungi can have community-level consequences and may be operating in many other microbiomes.
