Project description:The increased urban pressures are often associated with specialization of microbial communities. Microbial communities being a critical player in the geochemical processes, makes it important to identify key environmental parameters that influence the community structure and its function.In this proect we study the influence of land use type and environmental parameters on the structure and function of microbial communities. The present study was conducted in an urban catchment, where the metal and pollutants levels are under allowable limits. The overall goal of this study is to understand the role of engineered physicochemical environment on the structure and function of microbial communities in urban storm-water canals.

The overall goal of this study is to understand the role of engineered physicochemical environment on the structure and function of microbial communities in urban storm-water canals. Water and sediment samples were collected after a rain event from Sungei Ulu Pandan watershed of >25km2, which has two major land use types: Residential and industrial. Samples were analyzed for physicochemical variables and microbial community structure and composition. Functional gene abundance was determined using GeoChip.

Project description:This study evaluated the ammonium oxidizing communities (COA) associated with a potato crop (Solanum phureja) rhizosphere soil in the savannah of Bogotá (Colombia) by examining the presence and abundance of amoA enzyme genes and transcripts by qPCR and next-generation sequence analysis. amoA gene abundance could not be quantified by qPCR due to problems inherent in the primers; however, the melting curve analysis detected increased fluorescence for Bacterial communities but not for Archaeal communities. Transcriptome analysis by next-generation sequencing revealed that the majority of reads mapped to ammonium-oxidizing Archaea, suggesting that this activity is primarily governed by the microbial group of the Crenarchaeota phylum. In contrast,a lower number of reads mapped to ammonia-oxidizing bacteria.

Project description:Microbial communities from a lake and river flowing through a highly dense urbanized township in Malaysia were profiled by sequencing amplicons of the 16S V3-V4 and 18S V9 hypervariable rRNA gene regions via Illumina MiSeq. Results revealed that Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Actinobacteria and Firmicutes were the dominant prokaryotic phyla; whereas, eukaryotic communities were predominantly of the SAR clade and Opisthokonta. The abundance of Pseudomonas and Flavobacterium in all sites suggested the possible presence of pathogens in the urban water systems, supported by the most probable number (MPN) values of more than 1600 per 100 mL. Urbanization could have impacted the microbial communities as transient communities (clinical, water-borne and opportunistic pathogens) coexisted with common indigenous aquatic communities (Cyanobacteria). It was concluded that in urban water systems, microbial communities vary in their abundance of microbial phyla detected along the water systems. The influences of urban land use and anthropogenic activities influenced the physicochemical properties and the microbial dynamics in the water systems.Supplementary informationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s13205-020-02617-3.

Project description:The Nation’s streams and rivers contain several contaminants in the form of complex mixtures. These cocktails of chemicals are not equivalent in concentrations, some pollutants such as nutrients can be found in the range of mg/L (macro-pollutants) but others components (micro-pollutants) such as endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are in amounts thousands to millions of times less concentrated ug/L to ng/L. These mixtures hamper the determination of particular effects of contaminants in aquatic biota. Nonetheless, the fact that toxicity is preceded by alteration in gene expression in an organism allows the use of gene expression profiling (from microarray studies) to detect early toxic effects and identify mechanisms of action. The microarray technology, a collection of DNA fragments attached to a solid surface, can be used to measure the expression levels of large numbers of genes. This facilitates establishment of links between toxicants and effects on biota. In urban waters, micropollutants such as EDCs, are known to cause effects at very low concentrations. One common class of EDCs found in low levels in urban waters is the class of perfluorochemicals (PFCs). Previously, we observed that urban waters with wastewater influence containing PFCs in the 300 ng/L range exerted effects in fish by altering the expression of cholesterol metabolism and DNA repair genes in the liver. To determine whether low concentrations in the range of the PFCs found in the environment can elicit gene expression changes, we investigated the impact of 7 different types of PFCs in a controlled laboratory study by exposing fathead minnows for 48h to environmentally relevant concentrations of PFCs. Additionally, we use blood as starting material for microarray analysis in order to explore non-invasive techniques. No fish mortality was observed in any treatment exposures, but gene expression was altred. Surprisingly, low levels of PFCs that we used altered gene expression in fish liver and blood. Several of the same genes were altered in both liver and blood from exposed fish. Micorarray analysis yields information on altered molecular pathways that predict changes at higher levels of biological organization such as survival and reproduction.

Project description:The diversity and environmental distribution of the nosZ gene, which encodes the enzyme responsible for the consumption of nitrous oxide, was investigated in marine and terrestrial environments using a functional gene microarray. The microbial communities represented by the nosZ gene probes showed strong biogeographical separation, with communities from surface ocean waters and agricultural soils significantly different from each other and from those in oceanic oxygen minimum zones. Atypical nosZ genes, usually associated with incomplete denitrification pathways, were detected in all the environments, including surface ocean waters. The abundance of nosZ genes, as estimated by quantitative PCR, was highest in the agricultural soils and lowest in surface ocean waters.
