Project description:Biogas plants (BGPs) produce methane and carbon dioxide through the anaerobic digestion of agricultural waste. Identification of strategies for more stable biogas plant operation and increased biogas yields require better knowledge about the individual degradation steps and the interactions within the microbial communities. The metaprotein profiles of ten agricultural BGPs and one laboratory reactor were investigated using a metaproteomics pipeline. Fractionation of samples using SDS-PAGE was combined with a high resolution Orbitrap mass spectrometer, metagenome sequences specific for BGPs, and the MetaProteomeAnalyzer software. This enabled us to achieve a high coverage of the metaproteome of the BGP microbial communities. The investigation revealed approx. 17,000 protein groups (metaproteins), covering the majority of the expected metabolic networks of the biogas process such as hydrolysis, transport, fermentation processes, amino acid metabolism, methanogenesis and bacterial C1-metabolism. Biological functions could be linked with the taxonomic composition. Two different types of BGPs were classified by the abundance of the acetoclastic methanogenesis and by abundance of enzymes implicating syntrophic acetate oxidation. Linking of the identified metaproteins with the process steps of the Anaerobic Digestion Model 1 proved the main model assumptions but indicated also some improvements such as considering syntrophic acetate oxidation. Beside the syntrophic interactions, the microbial communities in BGPs are also shaped by competition for substrates and host-phage interactions causing cell lysis. In particular, larger amounts of Bacteriophages for the bacterial families Bacillaceae, Enterobacteriaceae and Clostridiaceae, exceeding the cell number of the Bacteria by approximately four-fold. In contrast, less Bacteriophages were found for Archaea, but more CRISPR proteins were detected. On the one hand, the virus induced turnover of biomass might cause slow degradation of complex biomass in BGP. On the other hand, the lysis of bacterial cells allows cycling of essential nutrients.

Project description:Anaerobic digestion is a popular and effective microbial process for waste treatment. The performance of anaerobic digestion processes is contingent on the balance of the microbial food web in utilizing various substrates. Recently, co-digestion, i.e., supplementing the primary substrate with an organic-rich co-substrate has been exploited to improve waste treatment efficiency. Yet the potential effects of elevated organic loading on microbial functional gene community remains elusive. In this study, functional gene array (GeoChip 5.0) was used to assess the response of microbial community to the addition of poultry waste in anaerobic digesters treating dairy manure. Consistent with 16S rRNA gene sequences data, GeoChip data showed that microbial community compositions were significantly shifted in favor of copiotrophic populations by co-digestion, as taxa with higher rRNA gene copy number such as Bacilli were enriched. The acetoclastic methanogen Methanosarcina was also enriched, while Methanosaeta was unaltered but more abundant than Methanosarcina throughout the study period. The microbial functional diversity involved in anaerobic digestion were also increased under co-digestion.

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:In anaerobic digestion plants (ADP) homogenization of the feed, the fermenter content and the microbial communities represents a precondition for effective and robust biogas production,but also a major energy consumer. For a 850 m3 agricultural AD-P equipped with eight sampling ports we investigated whether different feeding and stirring regimes enable a sufficient homogenization of the microbial communities using metaproteome and TRFLP analysis. Systematic comparison of the samples by scatter plots and students t-test revealed only a limited number of slightly changed metaproteins, taxonomies and biological processes, indicating no systematic differences between the microbial communities in center and rim as well as between top and bottom. However, comparison of the amount of shared identified metaproteins between the sample ports showed minor variation, which might be correlated with the applied stirring strategy. In sum, the applied stirring and feeding conditionswere sufficient to homogenize the microbial communities in AD-Ps largely.

Project description:Functional redundancy in bacterial communities is expected to allow microbial assemblages to survive perturbation by allowing continuity in function despite compositional changes in communities. Recent evidence suggests, however, that microbial communities change both composition and function as a result of disturbance. We present evidence for a third response: resistance. We examined microbial community response to perturbation caused by nutrient enrichment in salt marsh sediments using deep pyrosequencing of 16S rRNA and functional gene microarrays targeting the nirS gene. Composition of the microbial community, as demonstrated by both genes, was unaffected by significant variations in external nutrient supply, despite demonstrable and diverse nutrient–induced changes in many aspects of marsh ecology. The lack of response to external forcing demonstrates a remarkable uncoupling between microbial composition and ecosystem-level biogeochemical processes and suggests that sediment microbial communities are able to resist some forms of perturbation.

Project description:A combination of shotgun metaproteomics and 16S rRNA gene pyrosequencing wasused to identify potential functional pathways and key microorganisms involved in long-chain fatty acids (LCFA) anaerobic conversion. Microbial communities degrading saturated- and unsaturated-LCFA were compared. Archaeal communities were mainly composed of Methanosaeta, Methanobacterium and Methanospirillum species, both in stearate (saturated C18:0) and oleate (mono-unsaturated C18:1) incubations. Over 80% of the 16S rRNA gene sequences clustered within the Methanosaeta genus, which is in agreement with the high number of proteins assigned to this group (94%). Archaeal proteins related with methane metabolism were highly expressed. Bacterial communities were rather diverse and the composition dissimilar between incubations with saturated- and unsaturated-LCFA. Stearate-degrading communities were enriched in Deltaproteobacteria (34% of the assigned sequences), while microorganisms clustering within the Synergistia class were more predominant in oleate incubation (25% of the assigned sequences). Bacterial communities were diverse and active, given by the high percentage of proteins related with mechanisms of energy production. Several proteins were assigned to syntrophic bacteria, emphasizing the importance of the interactions between acetogens and methanogens in energy exchange and formation in anaerobic LCFA-rich environments.
