The formation of sinking particles in the ocean, which promote carbon sequestration into deeper water and sediments, involves algal polysaccharides acting as an adhesive, binding together molecules, cells and minerals. These as yet unidentified adhesive polysaccharides must resist degradation by bacterial enzymes or else they dissolve and particles disassemble before exporting carbon. Here, using monoclonal antibodies as analytical tools, we trace the abundance of 27 polysaccharide epitopes in d ...[more]

Project description:Grapevine downy mildew caused by the Oomycete Plasmopara viticola is one of the most important diseases affecting Vitis spp. However, all cultivated European grapevine varieties are susceptible to P. viticola and the resistance needs to be introduced from other Vitaceae. Segregating populations derived from Muscadinia rotundifolia, a species closely related to Vitis, lead to the identification and mapping of two resistance genes, named Rpv1 and Rpv2. The macroscopic phenotypes of the resistance mediated by the two loci are different. Rpv2 plants completely inhibit P. viticola sporulation and produce very small necrotic lesions. In contrast, Rpv1 plants allow a rather limited but visible sporulation of P. viticola. The aim of the study is to understand the gene expression changes associated with downy mildew resistance mediated by these two loci. Gene expression patterns after P. viticola inoculation or mock inoculation are compared in incompatible (resistant plants bearing Rpv1 or Rpv2 locus) and compatible (susceptible plants with no resistance loci) interactions, using the Vitis vinifera GeneChip from Affymetrix. In order to limit the effect of the genetic background, the plant material consists in three pools of genotypes called B, C and D, respectively corresponding to partially resistant plants (Rpv1+/Rpv2-), totally resistant plants (Rpv1-/Rpv2+), and susceptible plants (Rpv1-/Rpv2-) derived from a segregating population. Each pool consists in 3 different genotypes. Plant leaf discs were inoculated with P. viticola sporangium suspension (i) or mock-inoculated with water (ni) and analysed 6 hours post-inoculation. For each experimental condition, we performed two biological replicates. Experiment Overall Design: 3 plant genotypes were analyzed: Rpv1+/Rpv2- (B), Rpv1-/Rpv2+ (C), and Rpv1-/Rpv2- (D). Plants were either inoculated with P. viticola (i) or mock-inoculated with water (ni). Biological replicates were performed for each experimental condition.

Project description:BackgroundThe planktonic bacterial community associated with spring phytoplankton blooms in the North Sea is responsible for a large amount of carbon turnover in an environment characterised by high primary productivity. Individual clades belonging to the Gammaproteobacteria have shown similar population dynamics to Bacteroidetes species, and are thus assumed to fill competing ecological niches. Previous studies have generated large numbers of metagenome assembled genomes and metaproteomes from these environments, which can be readily mined to identify populations performing potentially important ecosystem functions. In this study we attempt to catalogue these spring bloom-associated Gammaproteobacteria, which have thus far attracted less attention than sympatric Alphaproteobacteria and Bacteroidetes.MethodsWe annotated 120 non-redundant species-representative gammaproteobacterial metagenome assembled genomes from spring bloom sampling campaigns covering the four years 2010-2012 and 2016 using a combination of Prokka and PfamScan, with further confirmation via BLAST against NCBI-NR. We also matched these gene annotations to 20 previously published metaproteomes covering those sampling periods plus the spring of 2009.ResultsMetagenome assembled genomes with clear capacity for polysaccharide degradation via dedicated clusters of carbohydrate active enzymes were among the most abundant during blooms. Many genomes lacked gene clusters with clearly identifiable predicted polysaccharide substrates, although abundantly expressed loci for the uptake of large molecules were identified in metaproteomes. While the larger biopolymers, which are the most abundant sources of reduced carbon following algal blooms, are likely the main energy source, some gammaproteobacterial clades were clearly specialised for smaller organic compounds. Their substrates range from amino acids, monosaccharides, and DMSP, to the less expected, such as terpenoids, and aromatics and biphenyls, as well as many 'unknowns'. In particular we uncover a much greater breadth of apparent methylotrophic capability than heretofore identified, present in several order level clades without cultivated representatives.ConclusionsLarge numbers of metagenome assembled genomes are today publicly available, containing a wealth of readily accessible information. Here we identified a variety of predicted metabolisms of interest, which include diverse potential heterotrophic niches of spring bloom-associated Gammaproteobacteria. Features such as those identified here could well be fertile ground for future experimental studies.
