Project description:Microbial communities in the rhizosphere make significant contributions to crop health and nutrient cycling. However, their ability to perform important biogeochemical processes remains uncharacterized. Important functional genes, which characterize the rhizosphere microbial community, were identified to understand metabolic capabilities in the maize rhizosphere using GeoChip 3.0-based functional gene array method. Triplicate samples were taken for both rhizosphere and bulk soil, in which each individual sample was a pool of four plants or soil cores. To determine the abundance of functional genes in the rhizosphere and bulk soils, GeoChip 3.0 was used.

Project description:Understanding the environmental factors that shape microbial communities is crucial, especially in extreme environments, like Antarctica. Two main forces were reported to influence Antarctic soil microbes: birds and plants. Both birds and plants are currently undergoing unprecedented changes in their distribution and abundance due to global warming. However, we need to clearly understand the relationship between plants, birds and soil microorganisms. We therefore collected rhizosphere and bulk soils from six different sampling sites subjected to different levels of bird influence and colonized by Colobanthus quitensis and Deschampsia antarctica in the Admiralty Bay, King George Island, Maritime Antarctic. Microarray and qPCR assays targeting 16S rRNA genes of specific taxa were used to assess microbial community structure, composition and abundance and analyzed with a range of soil physico-chemical parameters. The results indicated significant rhizosphere effects in four out of the six sites, including areas with different levels of bird influence. Acidobacteria were significantly more abundant in soils with little bird influence (low nitrogen) and in bulk soil. In contrast, Actinobacteria were significantly more abundant in the rhizosphere of both plant species. At two of the sampling sites under strong bird influence (penguin colonies), Firmicutes were significantly more abundant in D. antarctica rhizosphere but not in C. quitensis rhizosphere. The Firmicutes were also positively and significantly correlated to the nitrogen concentrations in the soil. We conclude that the microbial communities in Antarctic soils are driven both by bird and plants, and that the effect is taxa-specific.

Project description:Background: The soil environment is responsible for sustaining most terrestrial plant life on earth, yet we know surprisingly little about the important functions carried out by diverse microbial communities in soil. Soil microbes that inhabit the channels of decaying root systems, the detritusphere, are likely to be essential for plant growth and health, as these channels are the preferred locations of new root growth. Understanding the microbial metagenome of the detritusphere and how it responds to agricultural management such as crop rotations and soil tillage will be vital for improving global food production. Methods: The rhizosphere soils of wheat and chickpea growing under + and - decaying root were collected for metagenomics sequencing. A gene catalogue was established by de novo assembling metagenomic sequencing. Genes abundance was compared between bulk soil and rhizosphere soils under different treatments. Conclusions: The study describes the diversity and functional capacity of a high-quality soil microbial metagenome. The results demonstrate the contribution of the microbiome from decaying root in determining the metagenome of developing root systems, which is fundamental to plant growth, since roots preferentially inhabit previous root channels. Modifications in root microbial function through soil management, can ultimately govern plant health, productivity and food security.

Project description:Cover cropping is an effective method to protect agricultural soils from erosion, promote nutrient and moisture retention, encourage beneficial microbial activity, and maintain soil structure. Reusing winter cover crop root channels with the maize roots during the summer allows the cash crop to extract resources from farther niches in the soil horizon. In this study, we investigate how reusing winter cover crop root channels to grow maize (Zea mays L.) affects the composition and function of the bacterial communities in the rhizosphere using 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing and metaproteomics. We discovered that the bacterial community significantly differed among cover crop variations, soil profile depths, and maize growth stages. Re-usage of the root channels increased bacterial abundance, and it further increases as we elevate the complexity from monocultures to mixtures. Upon mixing legumes with brassicas and grasses, the overall expression of several steps of the carbon cycle (C) and the nitrogen cycle (N) improved. The deeper root channels of legumes and brassicas compared to grasses correlated with higher bacterial 16S rRNA gene copy numbers and community roles in the respective variations in the subsoil regimes due to the increased availability of root exudates secreted by maize roots. In conclusion, root channel re-use (monocultures and mixtures) improved the expression of metabolic pathways of the important C and N cycles, and the bacterial communities, which is beneficial to the soil rhizosphere as well as to the growing crops.

Project description:We present metaproteome data from maize rhizosphere from sodic soil. Isolation of proteome from maize rhizosphere collected from Experimental Farm, ICAR-IISS, Mau, India was done with the standardized protocol at our laboratory and metaproteome analysis was done with the standardized pipepline. In total 696 proteins with different functions representing 245 genus and 395 species were identified. The proteome data provides direct evidence on the biological processes in soil ecosystem and is the first reported reference data from maize rhizosphere.

We conclude that the microbial communities in Antarctic soils are driven both by bird and plants, and that the effect is taxa-specific. The study was carried out at the Brazilian Antarctic Station Comandante Ferraz (EACF, 62M-BM-004M-bM-^@M-^YS, 58M-BM-021M-bM-^@M-^YW), located in Martel Inlet, Admiralty Bay, King George Island, Antarctic Peninsula, which is part of the South Shetlands Archipelago in Maritime Antarctica. It is a medium sized research station with a population of 10 to 15 people during the winter months (March to November) and about 60 people during the austral summer months (November to March). During the austral summers of 2006 M-bM-^@M-^S 2007 and 2008 M-bM-^@M-^S 2009, the vascular plants D. antarctica or C. quitensis were sampled, where both plants were found, in triplicate at six different sites: A M-bM-^@M-^S Arctowski (2006 M-bM-^@M-^S 2007), Q M-bM-^@M-^S Quimica (2006 M-bM-^@M-^S 2007), I M-bM-^@M-^S Ipanema (2006 M-bM-^@M-^S 2007), M M-bM-^@M-^S North Mountain (2008 M-bM-^@M-^S 2009), D M-bM-^@M-^S Demay Point (2008 M-bM-^@M-^S 2009), C M-bM-^@M-^S Copacabana (2008 M-bM-^@M-^S 2009) (Figure 1). Points A, C and D were located inside an environmental protected area. Point A is close to the Arctowski Polish Station and next to a colony of Adelie penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae), point C is next to the USA summer station Copacabana in a Gentoo penguin (P. papua) colony, and point D is near to a Polish refuge next to a colony of Chinstrap penguins (P. antarcticus). At point I, there were no penguin colonies present, but this section was used as a nesting site by local species of flying birds. Point Q was located in the vicinity of the EACF; thus there has been (and continues to be) an intense anthropogenic influence on this spot, which is not the case at the other sampling sites. Point M was located at the top of North Mountain, around 200 m altitude. This site has no influence from penguin colonies and only a few nests of skua (Catharacta sp.) were observed. At each sampling site, triplicate soil samples were taken for chemical and biological analyses, with the exception of the Arctowski site (A) where we only took two replicates. Each vascular plant sample was frozen (-20M-BM-0C) at the EACF.

Project description:The goal of this growth chamber experiment was to investigate the effects of diverse soil microbial communities on the transcriptional responses of plants to drought. Specifically, we sought to understand how soil microbiomes' past exposure to water-limited conditions (either long-term exposure to dry conditions in low-precipitation sites, or recent acute drought) impacted their interactions with plants. Six soils collected from remnant prairies crossing a steep precipitation gradient in Kansas, USA were used as the starting microbial communities. Thirty-two pots (or mesocosms) of each soil were divided among four treatments: droughted or well-watered, and with or without a host plant (Tripsacum dactyloides) in a factorial design. The soil mesocosms were "conditioned" in these treatments for five months. (Metagenome and metatranscriptome data from the baseline soils and the post-conditioning soils are available in a separate BioProject on NCBI SRA and GEO). Then, a microbial slurry extracted from each of the 192 conditioned soils was used to inoculate 4 plants in a subsequent experiment (the “Test Phase”): one pot per combination of watering treatment (droughted or control) and host species (Zea mays or Tripsacum dactyloides). After 4 weeks (for maize) or 5 weeks (for eastern gamagrass) we harvested one crown root per plant for 16S rRNA sequencing and another crown root for RNA-seq. The 16S and RNA-seq data for these plants (both species) are contained in this BioProject. Note that 16S rRNA sequencing data are available for all plants in this experiment, but we conducted RNA-seq only for a subset (all plants grown in microbiomes originating from the 2 driest and 2 wettest collection sites).
