Project description:Seasonal changes in nitrogen assimilation have been studied in the western English Channel by sampling at approximately weekly intervals for 12 months. Nitrate concentrations showed strong seasonal variations. Available nitrogen in the winter was dominated by nitrate but this was close to limit of detection from May to September, after the spring phytoplankton bloom. 15N uptake experiments showed that nitrate was the nitrogen source for the spring phytoplankton bloom but regenerated nitrogen supported phytoplankton productivity throughout the summer. The average annual f ratio was 0.35, which demonstrated the importance of ammonia regeneration in this dynamic temperate region. Nitrogen uptake rate measurements were related to the phytoplankton responsible by assessing the relative abundance of nitrate reductase (NR) genes and the expression of NR among eukaryotic phytoplankton. Strong signals were detected from NR sequences that are not associated with known phylotypes or cultures. NR sequences from the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum were highly represented in gene abundance and expression, and were significantly correlated with f ratio. The results demonstrate that analysis of functional genes provides additional information, and may be able to give better indications of which phytoplankton species are responsible for the observed seasonal changes in f ratio than microscopic phytoplankton identification.

Project description:A functional gene microarray was developed and used to investigate phytoplankton community composition and gene expression in the English Channel. Genes encoding the CO2 fixation enzyme RuBisCO (rbcL) and the nitrate assimilation enzyme nitrate reductase (NR) representing several major groups of phytoplankton were included as oligonucleotide probes on the 'phytoarray'. Five major groups of eukaryotic phytoplankton that possess the Type 1D rbcL gene were detected, both in terms of presence (DNA) and activity (rbcL gene expression). Changes in relative signal intensity among the Type 1D rbcL probes indicated a shift from diatom dominance in the spring bloom to dominance by haptophytes and flagellates later in the summer. Because of the limitations of a smaller database, NR probes detected fewer groups, but due to the greater diversity among known NR sequences, NR probes provided higher phylogenetic resolution than did rbcL probes, and identified two uncultivated diatom phylotypes as the most abundant (DNA) and active (NR gene expression) in field samples. Unidentified chlorophytes and the diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum were detected at both the DNA and cDNA (gene expression) levels. The reproducibility of the array was evaluated in several ways and future directions for further improvement of probe development and sensitivity are outlined. The phytoarray provides a relatively high resolution, high throughput approach to assessing phytoplankton community composition in marine environments.

NR gene diversity from seawater (two replicates of 16 blocks per array, 8 replicate features per probe, duplicate arrays for some samples) The arrays contain three sets of probes for different applications (rbcL and nitrate reductase (NR) from phytoplankton, and amoA from ammonia oxidizing bacteria). The paper to which this submission relates, and the experiments reported in it, used only the NR probe set.

Project description:The spring bloom in the North Atlantic develops over a few weeks in response to the physical stabilization of the nutrient replete water column and is one of the biggest biological signals on earth. The composition of the phytoplankton assemblage during the spring bloom of 2008 was evaluated, using a microarray, on the basis of functional genes that encode key enzymes in nitrogen and carbon assimilation in eukaryotic and prokaryotic phytoplankton. Oligonucleotide archetype probes representing RuBisCO, nitrate reductase and nitrate transporter genes from major phytoplankton classes detected a diverse assemblage. For RuBisCO, the archetypes with strongest signals represented known phytoplankton groups, but for the nitrate related genes, the major signals were not closely related to any known phytoplankton sequences. Most of the assemblage's components exhibited consistent temporal/spatial patterns. Yet, the strongest archetype signals often showed quite different patterns, indicating different ecological responses by the main players. The most abundant phytoplankton genera identified previously by microscopy, however, were not well represented on the microarray. The lack of sequence data for well-studied species, and the inability to identify organisms associated with functional gene sequences in the environment, still limits our understanding of phytoplankton ecology even in this relatively well-studied system.

Project description:The marine diatom Guinardia delicatula is a cosmopolitan species that dominates seasonal blooms in the English Channel and the North Sea. Several eukaryotic parasites are known to induce the mortality of this key-stone species. Here, we report the isolation and the characterization of the first viruses that infect G. delicatula. Viruses were isolated from the Western English Channel (SOMLIT-ASTAN station) during the late summer bloom decline of G. delicatula. A combination of laboratory approaches revealed that these lytic viruses (GdelRNAV) are small untailed particles of 35-38 nm in diameter that replicated in the host cytoplasm where both unordered particles and crystalline arrays were formed. GdelRNAV displayed a linear single-stranded RNA genome of ~9 kb, including two open reading frames encoding for replication and structural polyproteins. Phylogenetic relationships based on the RNA-dependent-RNA-polymerase gene marker showed that GdelRNAV were new members of the Bacillarnavirus, a monophyletic genus belonging to the order Picornavirales. GdelRNAV were specific to several strains of G. delicatula, they were produced rapidly (< 12h) and in numbers (9.34 x 104 virions per host cell). We recorded a substantial delay (72 h) between virions release and host cell lysis. Our analysis points to variable viral susceptibilities of the host during the early exponential growth phase. Interestingly, we consistently failed to isolate viruses during spring and early summer while G. delicatula developed rapid and massive blooms. While our study suggests that viruses do contribute to the decline of G. delicatula late summer bloom, they may not be the primary mortality agents during the remaining blooms at SOMLIT-ASTAN. Future studies should focus on the relative contribution of the viral and eukaryotic pathogens to the control of Guinardia blooms to understand the fate of these prominent organisms in marine systems.

Project description:In this project, the metaproteome of the marine bacterioplankton was analyzed to assess its respone towards an algal bloom in the southern North Sea in spring 2010. Proteins were extracted applying two different methods: (i) applying chemical cell lysis using trifluoroethanol in combination with in-solution digest and (ii) mechanical cell lysis applying bead beating, SDS-PAGE prefractionation and in-gel digest. Both samples were analyzed by nanoLC and ESI-iontrap MS. In case of the TFE lysis samples, also nanoLC-MALDI-TOF MS was applied.

Project description:Marine phytoplankton are a diverse group of photoautotrophic organisms and key mediators in the global carbon cycle. Phytoplankton physiology and biomass accumulation are closely tied to mixed layer depth, but the intracellular metabolic pathways activated in response to changing mixed layer depths remain unexplored. Here, metatranscriptomics was used to characterize the phytoplankton community response to a mixed layer shallowing from 233 meters to 5 meters over the course of two days during the late spring in the Northwest Atlantic. Most phytoplankton genera downregulated core photosynthesis, carbon storage, and carbon fixation genes as the system transitioned from a deep to a shallow mixed layer and shifted towards catabolism of stored carbon ic pathways supportive of rapid cell growth. In contrast, phytoplankton genera exhibited divergent transcriptional strategies for photosystem light harvesting complex genes during this transition. Active infection, taken as the ratio of virus to host transcripts, increased in the Bacillariophyta (diatom) phylum and decreased in the Chlorophyta (green algae) phylum upon mixed layer shallowing. A conceptual model is proposed to provide ecophysiological context for our findings, in which light limitation during deep mixing induces populations into a transcriptional state which maximizes interrupts the oscillating levels of transcripts related to photosynthesis, carbon storage, and carbon fixation found in shallow mixed layers with relatively higher growth rates. We propose that upon sensing high light levels during mixed layer shallowing, phytoplankton resume diel oscillation of core sets of genes enabling photoprotection, biosynthesis and cell replication. Our findings highlight the shared and unique transcriptional response strategies within phytoplankton communities acclimating to the dynamic light environment associated with transient deep mixing and shallowing events during the annual North Atlantic bloom.
