Project description:The microbiota plays a crucial role in protecting plants from pests and pathogens. The protection provided by the microbiota constitutes not just the plant’s first line of defense, but possibly its most potent one, as experimental disruptions to the microbiota cause plants to succumb to otherwise asymptomatic infections. To understand how microbial plant defense is deployed, we applied a complex and tractable plant-soil-microbiome microcosm. This system, consisting of Arabidopsis plants and a 150-member bacterial synthetic community, provides a platform for the discovery of novel bacterial plant-beneficial traits, under a realistically complex microbial community context. To identify which components of the plant microbiota are critical for plant defense, we deconstructed this microcosm top-down, removing different microbial groups from the community to examine their protective effect on the plant when challenged with the leaf pathogen Pseudomonas syringae. This process of community deconstruction revealed a critical role for the genus Bacillus in protecting the plant from infection. Using plant RNA-seq and bacterial co-culturing experiments, we demonstrated that Bacillus-provided plant protection is independent of plant immune system activation. We also show that the level of plant protection is strongly dependent on the diversity of the protective inoculum. We show that deconstructing the microbiome top-down is a powerful tool for identifying and prioritizing microbial taxa with specific functions within it.

Project description:Periapical abscesses, radicular cysts, and periapical granulomas are among the most frequently identified pathological lesions in the alveolar bone. Although many studies have investigated bacterial metagenomics in periapical abscesses, little is known about the genome mining of abundant bacteria of periapical lesions and its correlation to human transcriptome. This study aims to explore the enriched metabolic environment of periapical lesions associated with microbial diversity and their role in lesion progression. Bacterial DNA and human RNA were isolated from periapical lesions and healthy pulp tissue and sequenced using next-generation sequencing. Bacterial sequences were then analyzed to identify secondary metabolites, pathogenic proteins, and their associated metabolic pathways. Integrated bacterial and human metabolic pathways indicated similar pathways in each lesion. Among these pathways, inflammatory response, humoral immune response, and hemopoiesis were enriched in abscesses. NABA matrisome associated, neutrophil degranulation, and P73 pathway were enriched in cysts. Meanwhile, response to bacterium, regulation of immune effector process, and positive regulation of response to external stimulus were enriched in granulomas. In conclusion, this study is the first to elucidate the interplay between microbial and human metabolic activity. These findings have significant clinical implications for the early diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of periapical lesions.

Project description:Bacterial DNA was detected in both subgingival and carotid plaque samples. The microbial composition differed between subgingival and carotid plaque communities. Alpha diversity analysis revealed significantly higher diversity in subgingival samples compared to carotid plaques (p = 0.039). Beta diversity analysis, including unweighted UniFrac analysis (p<0.001), linear discriminant analysis with effect size estimation, cladogram-based analysis, and principal component analysis, confirmed marked differences between the subgingival and carotid plaque microbiota. However, the study did reveal overlaps in a few individual cases.

Project description:Soil transplant serves as a proxy to simulate climate change in realistic climate regimes. Here, we assessed the effects of climate warming and cooling on soil microbial communities, which are key drivers in Earth’s biogeochemical cycles, four years after soil transplant over large transects from northern (N site) to central (NC site) and southern China (NS site) and vice versa. Four years after soil transplant, soil nitrogen components, microbial biomass, community phylogenetic and functional structures were altered. Microbial functional diversity, measured by a metagenomic tool named GeoChip, and phylogenetic diversity are increased with temperature, while microbial biomass were similar or decreased. Nevertheless, the effects of climate change was overridden by maize cropping, underscoring the need to disentangle them in research. Mantel tests and canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) demonstrated that vegetation, climatic factors (e.g., temperature and precipitation), soil nitrogen components and CO2 efflux were significantly correlated to the microbial community composition. Further investigation unveiled strong correlations between carbon cycling genes and CO2 efflux in bare soil but not cropped soil, and between nitrogen cycling genes and nitrification, which provides mechanistic understanding of these microbe-mediated processes and empowers an interesting possibility of incorporating bacterial gene abundance in greenhouse gas emission modeling.

Project description:This study investigates the role of carbon-to-phosphorus (C/P) ratios in shaping microbial community dynamics and polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) production in sequencing batch reactors (SBR) fed with volatile fatty acids. Three conditions, characterized by fixed organic loading rates but varying C/P ratios (Run 1 = 170 Cmol Pmol-1; Run 2 = 235 Cmol Pmol-1; Run 3 = 400 Cmol Pmol-1), were tested to explore their impact on PHA accumulation, biomass growth, and reactor stability. Results indicate that the moderate phosphorus limitation of Run 2 achieves the best overall performance, with a PHA volumetric productivity of 2.02 g PHA L-1 d-1 and process stability. Conversely, higher C/P ratio increased the storage yield but lowered the productivity (1.55 gPHA L-1 d-1), compromising sludge settleability and reactor stability, indicating impaired microbial functionality. Full-length 16S/18S rRNA gene sequencing using PacBio technology enabled high-resolution profiling of microbial communities, revealing ecological shifts across conditions. Run 2 exhibited the highest bacterial and eukaryotic diversity, featuring multiple PHA-accumulating bacteria (mainly Sphaerotilus, Leadbetterella, and uncultured Rhodobacteraceae) and a well-structured eukaryotic community dominated by K-strategist bacterivorous protists, e.g. Rhogostoma (Rhizaria) and Vorticella (Ciliophora, Oligohymenophorea) and predatory protozoa, e.g. Tokophrya (Ciliophora, Suctoria). In contrast, Sphaerotilus dominated under suboptimal conditions and may be linked to bulking. These results suggest that eukaryotic diversity may support system stability through selective predation. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) further confirmed the presence of intracellular PHA granules and polyphosphate reserves, reinforcing the connection between nutrient limitation and adaptive microbial strategies. Overall, these findings highlight the critical role of the C/P ratio in shaping the performance of mixed microbial cultures, demonstrating that a well-balanced nutrient supply can enhance PHA production while maintaining microbial community stability. The results contribute to optimizing the selection process for mixed microbial cultures, offering valuable insights into the impact of carbon-to-nutrient ratios in the feeding strategy.

Project description:Despite the global importance of forests, it is virtually unknown how their soil microbial communities adapt at the phylogenetic and functional level to long term metal pollution. Studying twelve sites located along two distinct gradients of metal pollution in Southern Poland revealed that both community composition (via MiSeq Illumina sequencing of 16S rRNA genes) and functional gene potential (using GeoChip 4.2) were highly similar across the gradients despite drastically diverging metal contamination levels. Metal pollution level significantly impacted microbial community structure (p = 0.037), but not bacterial taxon richness. Metal pollution altered the relative abundance of specific bacterial taxa, including Acidobacteria, Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Chloroflexi, Firmicutes, Planctomycetes and Proteobacteria. Also, a group of metal resistance genes showed significant correlations with metal concentrations in soil, although no clear impact of metal pollution levels on overall functional diversity and structure of microbial communities was observed. While screens of phylogenetic marker genes, such as 16S rRNA, provided only limited insight into resilience mechanisms, analysis of specific functional genes, e.g. involved in metal resistance, appeared to be a more promising strategy. This study showed that the effect of metal pollution on soil microbial communities was not straightforward, but could be filtered out from natural variation and habitat factors by multivariate statistical analysis and spatial sampling involving separate pollution gradients.
