Diverse bacterial populations of PM2.5 in urban and suburb Shanghai,China

• Urban aerosols harbour diverse bacterial communities in Shanghai. • The functional groups were associated with nitrogen, carbon, and sulfur cycling. • Temperature, SO₂, and wind speed were key drivers for the bacterial community. Airborne bacteria play key roles in terrestrial and marine ecosystems and human health, yet our understanding of bacterial communities and their response to the environmental variables lags significantly behind that of other components of PM_2.5. Here, atmospheric fine particles obtained from urban and suburb Shanghai were analyzed by using the qPCR and Illumina Miseq sequencing. The bacteria with an average concentration of 2.12 × 10³ cells/m³, were dominated by Sphingomonas, Curvibacter, Acinetobacter, Bradyrhizobium, Methylobacterium, Halomonas, Aliihoeflea, and Phyllobacterium, which were related to the nitrogen, carbon, sulfur cycling and human health risk. Our results provide a global survey of bacterial community across urban, suburb, and high-altitude sites. In Shanghai (China), urban PM_2.5 harbour more diverse and dynamic bacterial populations than that in the suburb. The structural equation model explained about 27%, 41%, and 20%–78% of the variance found in bacteria diversity, concentration, and discrepant genera among urban and suburb sites. This work furthered the knowledge of diverse bacteria in a coastal Megacity in the Yangtze river delta and emphasized the potential impact of environmental variables on bacterial community structure.     

First report of microcystin production in Microcystis smithii Komárek and Anagnostidis (Cyanobacteria) from a water bloom in Eastern China

A water bloom sample collected from Lake Dishui in Shanghai was characterized. The morphological identification showed that Micorcystis wesenbergii and Micorcystis smithii were the main component of the bloom. Five strains of M. smithii were successfully isolated. Their 16S rRNA gene sequences based phylogenetic tree showed that the five strains of M. smithii intermixed with strains of other morphospecies in Microcystis. A fragment of mcy gene encoding for microcystin synthetase was detected in one of the five M. smithii strains (CHAB 2183), indicating its potential of microcystin production. High performance liquid chromatography analysis confirmed M. smithii CHAB 2183 to produce microcystin-RR as 1550 g per gram dry weight cells. The present investigation, for the first time, reported the isolated strains of M. smithii and microcystin production from M. smithii.     

不同16SrDNA靶序列对DGGE分析活性污泥群落的影响

为探讨不同通用引物扩增16S rDNA靶序列对活性污泥微生物群落分析的影响,更合理的利用变性梯度凝胶电泳(DGGE)技术分析活性污泥样品.从连续流搅拌槽式反应器(CSTR)中获取活性污泥,以3对通用引物341f/534r、968f/1 401r和341f/926r扩增16S rDNA序列,用DGGE分离PCR扩增产物.研究表明采用不同引物对进行DGGE分析时,群落多样性和动态存在显著的差异.341f/534r和968f/1 401r的靶序列分离效果较好,341f/926r的靶序列分离效果较差.引物341f/534r和341f/926r DGGE图谱显示S2和S3相似性高,引物968f/1 401r DGGE图谱显示S1和S2相似性高.由此可见采用不同引物对进行DGGE分析时,群落结构之间的相似性和动态是不一致的.341f/534r的DGGE图谱中条带丰富,多样性最好,968f/1 401r的DGGE图谱次之,341f/926r DGGE图谱条带最少,多样性也较差.因此,在利用DGGE分析活性污泥样品时采用引物341f/534r和968f/1 401r是比较适宜的.     

Soil fungistasis and its relations to soil microbial composition and diversity: a case study of a series of soils with different fungistasis

Fungistasis is one of the important approaches to control soil-borne plant pathogens.Some hypotheses about the mechanisms for soil fungistasis had been established,which mainly focused on the soil bacterial community composition,structure,diversity as well as function.In this study,the bacterial community composition and diversity of a series of soils treated by autoclaving,which coming from the same original soil sample and showing gradient fungistasis to the target soil-borne pathogen fungi Fusarium gr...
