Project description:Only recently, the natural gut microbiome of the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans has been described. C. elegans harbors a distinct gut microbiome that is shaped by environmental conditions, age, and host genotype. However, there is not much known about the genetic factors on the molecular level that the worm employs in order to keep its microbiota at bay. Previously, we have shown that TGFβ/BMP immune signaling is able to control the gut microbiome of C. elegans in particular in regards to Enterobacter species. We now aimed to identify the downstream targets of TGFβ/BMP immune signaling that implement the changes in microbiome composition. Hence, we exposed TGFβ mutants, dbl-1(nk3) and sma-3(e491), overexpression strain ctIs40 [dbl-1(+) + sur-5::GFP], and wild-type N2 to a synthetic microbiota community, CeMbio, and an E. coli OP50 control, and performed RNAseq. CeMbio is a collection of 12 diverse bacterial strains, previously isolated from wild C. elegans, C. elegans grown in microcosms, or substrates with C. elegans. Using the R packages edgeR and limma we are currently analyzing the data to understand the involvement of TGFβ/BMP signaling in host-microbiome interaction.

Project description:Bile acids are steroid compounds from the digestive tracts of vertebrates that enter agricultural environments in unusual high amounts with manure. Bacteria degrading bile acids can readily be isolated from soils and waters including agricultural areas. Under laboratory conditions, these bacteria transiently release steroid compounds as degradation intermediates into the environment. These compounds include androstadienediones (ADDs), which are C19-steroids with potential hormonal effects. Experiments with Caenorhabditis elegans showed that ADDs derived from bacterial bile acid degradation had effects on its tactile response, reproduction rate, and developmental speed. Additional experiments with a deletion mutant as well as transcriptomic analyses revealed that these effects might be conveyed by the putative testosterone receptor NHR-69. Soil microcosms showed that the natural microflora of agricultural soil is readily induced for bile acid degradation accompanied by the transient release of steroid intermediates. Establishment of a model system with a Pseudomonas strain and C. elegans in sand microcosms indicated transient release of ADDs during the course of bile acid degradation and negative effects on the reproduction rate of the nematode. This proof-of-principle study points at bacterial degradation of manure-derived bile acids as a potential and so-far overlooked risk for invertebrates in agricultural soils.

Project description:Host-microbe associations underlie many key processes of host development, immunity, and life history. Yet, none of the current research on the central model species Caenorhabditis elegans considers the worm’s natural microbiome. Instead, almost all laboratories exclusively use the canonical strain N2 and derived mutants, maintained through routine bleach sterilization in monoxenic cultures with an E. coli strain as food. Here, we characterize for the first time the native microbiome of C. elegans and assess its influence on nematode life history characteristics via transcriptomics.

Project description:Plants in their natural and agricultural environments are continuously exposed to a plethora of diverse microorganisms resulting in microbial colonization of plants in the rhizosphere. This process is believed to be accompanied by an intricate network of ongoing simultaneous interactions. In this study, we compared transcriptional patterns of Arabidopsis thaliana roots and shoots in the presence and absence of whole microbial communities extracted from compost soil. The results show a clear growth promoting effect of Arabidopsis shoots in the presence of soil microbes compared to axenically grown plants under identical conditions. Element analyses showed that iron uptake was facilitated by these mixed microbial communities which also lead to transcriptional downregulation of genes required for iron transport. In addition, soil microbial communities suppressed the expression of marker genes involved in oxidative stress/redox signalling, cell wall modification and plant defense. While most previous studies have focussed on individual plant-microbe interactions, our data suggest that multi-species transcriptional profiling, using simultaneous plant and metatranscriptomics coupled to metagenomics may be required to further increase our understanding of the intricate networks underlying plant-microbe interactions in their diverse environments.

Four samples were analysed in total. One corresponded to a pooled sample of RNA extracted from root tissues of 60 plants. The other three were biological replicates from shoot tissues, each of which contained 20 plants. Controls were used as reference and corresponded to tissues of plants grown in sterile conditions.

Project description:Indole is an intercellular and interkingdom signaling molecule, which is widespread in diverse ecological niches. Caenorhabditis elegans is a bacterivorous nematode living in soil and compost environments and a useful model host for the study of host-microbe interactions. While various bacteria and some plants produce a large quantity of extracellular indole, little is known about the effects of indole, its derivatives, and indole-producing bacteria on behaviors in C. elegans and animals. Here, we show that C. elegans senses and moves toward indole and indole-producing bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, Shigella boydii, Providencia stuartii, and Klebsiella oxytoca, while avoids non-indole producing pathogenic bacteria. It was also found that indole-producing bacteria and non-indole-producing bacteria exert divergent effects on egg-laying behavior of C. elegans via indole. In addition, various indole derivatives also modulate chemotaxis, egg-laying behavior, and survival of C. elegans. In contrast, indole at a high concentration to kill C. elegans that has the ability to detoxify indole via oxidation and glucosylation, indicating predator-prey interactions via a double-edged molecule indole. Transcriptional analysis showed that indole markedly up-regulated gene expression of cytochrome P450 family, UDP-glucuronosyltransferase, glutathione S-transferase, which explained well the modification of indole in C. elegans, while down-regulated expression of collagen genes and F-box genes. Our findings suggest that indole and its derivatives are important interkingdom signaling molecules in bacteria-nematode interactions.

Project description:Plants and rhizosphere microbes rely closely on each other, with plants supplying carbon to bacteria in root exudates, and bacteria mobilizing soil-bound phosphate for plant nutrition. When the phosphate supply becomes limiting for plant growth, the composition of root exudation changes, affecting rhizosphere microbial communities and microbially-mediated nutrient fluxes. To evaluate how plant phosphate deprivation affects rhizosphere bacteria, Lolium perenne seedlings were root-inoculated with Pseudomonas aeruginosa 7NR, and grown in axenic microcosms under different phosphate regimes (330 uM vs 3-6 uM phosphate). The effect of biological nutrient limitation was examined by DNA microarray studies of rhizobacterial gene expression.

Project description:We combined an experimental microbiome of 11 bacterial strains isolated from the gut of native Caenorhabditis elegans. C. elegans were maintained on the experimental microbiome, Escherichia coli OP50 (control food source), or OP50 supplemented with cell-free media (CFM) from the experimental microbiome. For each of the three feeding conditions, RNA-seq was performed for wildtype (N2) worms or transgenic worms expressing amyloid beta 1-42 in their body wall muscle (GMC101).
