    Complete genome sequence of a new clostridium sp. isolated from anaerobic digestion and biomethanation
    (Washington, DC : American Society for Microbiology, 2020) Hahnke, Sarah; Abendroth, Christian; Pascual, Javier; Langer, Thomas; Ramm, Patrice; Klocke, Michael; Luschnig, Olaf; Porcar, Manuel
    Here, we present the genome sequence and annotation of the bacterial strain HV4-5-A1G, a potentially new Clostridium species. Based on its genomic data, this strain may act as a keystone microorganism in the hydrolysis of complex polymers, as well as in the different acidogenesis and acetogenesis steps during anaerobic digestion. © 2020 Hahnke et al.

    Function-Based Rhizosphere Assembly along a Gradient of Desiccation in the Former Aral Sea

    The desiccation of the Aral Sea represents one of the largest human-made environmental regional disasters. The salt- and toxin-enriched dried-out basin provides a natural laboratory for studying ecosystem functioning and rhizosphere assembly under extreme anthropogenic conditions. Here, we investigated the prokaryotic rhizosphere communities of the native pioneer plant Suaeda acuminata (C.A.Mey.) Moq. in comparison to bulk soil across a gradient of desiccation (5, 10, and 40 years) by metagenome and amplicon sequencing combined with quantitative PCR (qPCR) analyses. The rhizosphere effect was evident due to significantly higher bacterial abundances but less diversity in the rhizosphere compared to bulk soil. Interestingly, in the highest salinity (5 years of desiccation), rhizosphere functions were mainly provided by archaeal communities. Along the desiccation gradient, we observed a significant change in the rhizosphere microbiota, which was reflected by (i) a decreasing archaeon-bacterium ratio, (ii) replacement of halophilic archaea by specific plant-associated bacteria, i.e., Alphaproteobacteria and Actinobacteria, and (iii) an adaptation of specific, potentially plant-beneficial biosynthetic pathways. In general, both bacteria and archaea were found to be involved in carbon cycling and fixation, as well as methane and nitrogen metabolism. Analysis of metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) showed specific signatures for production of osmoprotectants, assimilatory nitrate reduction, and transport system induction. Our results provide evidence that rhizosphere assembly by cofiltering specific taxa with distinct traits is a mechanism which allows plants to thrive under extreme conditions. Overall, our findings highlight a function-based rhizosphere assembly, the importance of plant-microbe interactions in salinated soils, and their exploitation potential for ecosystem restoration approaches.

    Complete genome sequence of a new Bacteroidaceae bacterium isolated from anaerobic biomass digestion
    (Washington, DC : American Society for Microbiology, 2020) Hahnke, Sarah; Abendroth, Christian; Pascual, Javier; Langer, Thomas; Codoñer, Francisco M.; Ramm, Patrice; Klocke, Michael; Luschnig, Olaf; Porcare, Manuel
    Here, we present the genome sequence and annotation of HV4-6-C5C, a bacterial strain isolated from a mesophilic two-stage laboratory-scale leach bed biogas reactor system. Strain HV4-6-C5C may represent a new genus of the family Bacteroidaceae and may have a key role in acidogenesis and acetogenesis steps during anaerobic biomass digestion. © 2019 Hahnke et al.

    Draft Genome Sequence of a New Oscillospiraceae Bacterium Isolated from Anaerobic Digestion of Biomass
    (Washington, DC : American Society for Microbiology, 2020) Pascual, Javier; Hahnke, Sarah; Abendroth, Christian; Langer, Thomas; Ramm, Patrice; Klocke, Michael; Luschnig, Olaf; Porcar, Manuel
    Here, we present the genome sequence and annotation of the novel bacterial strain HV4-5-C5C, which may represent a new genus within the family Oscillospiraceae (order Eubacteriales). This strain is a potential keystone species in the hydrolysis of complex polymers during anaerobic digestion of biomass. © 2020 Pascual et al.
