▼ Interactions between corals and algae have been implicated in influencing the potential fate of coral reef ecosystems. Recently, studies have concentrated on the mechanisms underlying coral-algal interactions as indicators of the effects algae can have on corals. Several studies have focused on algal-mediated, microbial activity, which can cause hypoxic conditions and indirectly yield coral mortality. However, the effectiveness of this competitive mechanism, and others, likely changes in naturally varying flow conditions. The present work quantified the effectiveness of chemically-mediated (i.e., microbially-mediated localized hypoxia) and physically-mediated (i.e., shading and abrasion) mechanisms of competition between corals and algae in differing flow environments. This work comprised of two separate studies, one focused on quantifying distributions and outcomes of coral-algal interactions in a field context of low and high flow, and a second study which focused on laboratory measurements of boundary layer hypoxia in the context of coral-algal interactions and microbes. For the first study, flow was measured on multiple spatial scales to determine areas on the reef where low and high flow conditions exist. Microbial densities were quantified as a proxy for microbial activity to determine the potential for microbially-mediated competition in different flow environments. Coral-algal interactions were counted and outcomes of coral-algal interactions were estimated in the areas designated as low and high flow to determine the environments in which different algae can negatively affect coral. Interactions between corals and algae were observed over time to see the prolonged effects of algal contact on coral growth and cover. A goal of the second study was to quantify the changes in diffusive boundary layer thickness and oxygen conditions within the zones of interaction between algal turf and massive Porites spp. as flow increased. Additionally, microbial contribution to oxygen conditions was measured within algal turf-massive Porites spp. interactions to determine the effects of microbes on oxygen conditions. The results for both studies indicate the effectiveness of mechanisms of competition underlying coral-algal interactions is dependent on the flow environment. Algal turf outcompetes coral more frequently in low flow. Interaction zones between algal turf and massive Porites retain higher densities of microbes and create and maintain extreme oxygen concentration more frequently in low flow than in high flow. Although microbial densities are higher within the zones of interaction between algal turf and massive Porites located in low flow, oxygen concentrations are controlled by algal turf not microbes. These results suggest another potential mechanism of competition, algal-driven oxygen extreme concentrations. However, coral cover and growth are not different in low versus high flow. Corals compensate for algal presence by growing more vertically and resist algal overgrowth due to other physiological, ecological… Advisors/Committee Members: Carpenter, Robert C.

▼ The transposase-derived transcription factors FAR-RED ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL 3 (FHY3) and FAR-RED IMPAIRED RESPONSE 1 (FAR1) hold multifunctional roles in A. thaliana, such as in resetting the circadian clock, flowering and chloroplast division. This thesis aimed to investigate the cause of extensive leaf-lesion formation observed in fhy3 far1 mutants, reminiscent of the programmed cell death (PCD) associated with plant defence responses. Global gene expression analysis suggested a constitutively activated defence response in fhy3 far1 mutants causing the mutant's leaf-lesions. However, defence marker gene expression associated with Salicylic Acid (SA)- and Jasmonic Acid (JA)/Ethylene (ET)-signalling, the two groups of signalling compounds that mediate defence response, was downregulated at the same time. Analysis of transcriptional changes upon biotic challenges suggested that this was the result of negative regulatory feedback in fhy3 far1 mutants. A microarray analysis of key differentially expressed genes in fhy3 far1 mutants revealed an upregulation of the pro-PCD gene CYSTEINE-RICH RECEPTOR-LIKE PROTEIN KINASE 13 (CRK13) and a downregulation of the PCD-inhibiting METACASPASE 2 (MC2). The function of CRK13 and MC2 in PCD suggested that their misregulation in fhy3 far1 mutants could be part of the primary reason for increased leaf-lesion formation in double mutant plants. Transcriptional analysis of responses to biotic challenges in MC2 and CRK13 misexpression lines, however, revealed little similarity to the responses seen in fhy3 far1 mutants. A constitutively activated defence response infers alterations of the associated microbiota. Initial investigations indicated that the fhy3 far1 mutant plant's phenotypical changes of extended leaf-lesion formation will be very likely to affect the phyllosphere, which prompted a next generation sequencing investigation of the phyllospheric microbiota. Its composition showed greatly increased species richness and a more even spectrum of abundances of bacterial species in fhy3 far1, a pattern that is commonly associated with continuing environmental disruption. The WT phyllosphere showed a stronger domination by a few species that were associated with the production of antimicrobials. In addition, the fungal community in fhy3 far1 mutant plants contained more pathogenic fungi in comparison to more saprotrophic fungi in WT. These findings support the suggestion that pathogen-protective properties of beneficial microbes in the phyllosphere are a community characteristic linked to microbial competition.

▼ ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Biochar (charcoal) is lauded by many scientists as an effective way to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and storing it in a very stable form in the soil for hundreds to thousands of years, whilst promoting soil fertility and productivity. Considering that no significant amounts of charcoal are presently accumulating in the environment, despite considerable amounts produced globally in natural and man-made fires, this study focuses on understanding the degradation of biochar and its interactions with plants and soil organisms. The following experiments were conducted to achieve this goal. Controlled chemical oxidation of biochar, using different concentrations of hydrogen peroxide, was conducted in an attempt to mimic the enzymatic degradation of biochar by basidiomycetes. The changes occurring in biochars structure and chemistry were assessed afterwards. Furthermore, aerobic and anaerobic digestion of biochar was conducted in vitro, and in vivo to investigate the changes occurring in biochar‘s elemental composition and chemistry during oxidation and factors that play a determining role in the rate of biochar degradation. The influence of biochar in soil on free-living and symbiotic microbial communities as well as its impact on total plant biomass production and root development was assessed in three greenhouse pot trials using wheat and green beans as test plants It was proven that biochar is almost fully H2O2-degradable, mostly through hydroxylation and carboxylation reactions which led to the formation of various short chained carboxylic acids, surface saturation with acidic functional groups as determined by the surface acidity measurements and proven by the increase in the intensity of FT-IR peaks associated with carboxyl and phenolic C-O groups. Furthermore, hydrogen peroxide treatment resulted in preferential removal of volatile organic carbons and led to the purification of biochar as evident by the new, more intense and sharper peaks in the region of 1600-1000 cm-1. These FT-IR peaks are considered as the more recalcitrant fraction of biochar and were shown to be mostly associated with transformation products of lignin and cellulose formed during pyrolysis. The incubation trial confirmed that biochar cannot be utilized as a sole carbon source without the addition of nutrients or glucose, to activate microbial activity within the columns. Furthermore, abiotic oxidation can be facilitated by oxidative soil minerals such as birnessite, but oxidation with atmospheric oxygen did not result in the evolution of CO2 from biochar. The average CO2 production in pot trials without plants in both the fertilized and unfertilized treatments increased linearly (R2= 0.80; 0.79 respectively) with increasing biochar application rates when biochar was the main carbon sources. Anaerobic degradation of biochar by a methanogenic consortium was much more efficient in utilizing biochar as a carbon source, compared to aerobic digestion. The anaerobic digesters maintained a chemical oxygen demand (COD)… Advisors/Committee Members: Rozanov, Andrei, Botha, A., Stellenbosch University. Faculty of AgriSciences. Dept. of Soil Science..

▼ Belowground litter decomposition is a major component of carbon cycling in grasslands, where it provides energy and nutrients for soil microbes and fauna. Fire, a historically frequent disturbance and a common management tool, removes above ground biomass and litter accumulation making belowground root litter of greater importance to decomposer food webs. While many studies use biomass measures of soil faunal groups to estimate changes in soil food web structure and energy flow, little is known about the flow of C from root litter to soil microbial and nematode communities in grasslands and if biomass measures can indicate this flow of C at a fine scale. Our greenhouse experiment first investigated how C from Andropogon gerardii (big bluestem) root litter was allocated into different soil microbial and nematode groups in frequently burned (FB) and infrequently burned (IB) tallgrass prairie soil. Incorporation of 13C into microbial fatty acids and nematode communities was determined on six occasions during decomposition in order to examine whether different groups of microorganisms and fauna were specialized on the root-litter derived C. Results showed that FB and IB soils supported microbial communities of differing community composition and abundance. IB had, generally, higher microbial abundance, more strongly dominated by bacteria than FB soil. Compound-specific stable isotope ratio analysis showed that root litter-C was more quickly incorporated into FB soil microbes. By the end of the experiment, all microbial groups were more highly 13C enriched in FB soils than in IB soils, with the exception of gram-negative bacteria for which there was no significant difference between the two soils. For nematodes, there was no significant difference in abundances; however, fungivore nematodes only incorporated root litter-C in FB soil while bacterivores, omnivores and predators derived at least some C from root litter in both treatments. Despite lower abundance of microbes in FB soil, total root litter mass loss did not differ between FB and IB soil, indicating higher microbial activity in FB soil. Our results reveal that FB prairie soil food webs are more closely coupled to root litter decomposition, where root litter is of increased importance as a C and nutrient source due to the frequent removal of standing biomass and shoot litter by fire. In the second part of our greenhouse experiment, we compared soil energy channel biomass measures with C flow into the soil food web. By coupling the energy channel biomass measurement approach with our decomposition study (using stable isotope enrichment to trace the flow of C into nematode trophic groups), we compared the quantified C flow to nematode energy channel biomass measures during decomposition of 13C-labeled big bluestem root litter. We hypothesized that biomass measures for nematode bacterial and fungal energy channels would indicate the proportion of root litter derived C incorporated into each nematode energy channel. Nematode biomasses and δ13C values were… Advisors/Committee Members: Wall, Diana H. (advisor), Cotrufo, M. Francesca (committee member), Kelly, Eugene F. (committee member).

▼ Microbes rely on collective behaviours, such as communication and cooperation to survive and form communities. The majority of these social behaviours are mediated by the secretion of public good molecules into a shared environment such that they can be utilized by neighbouring cells. Therefore, individuals that engage in costly cooperative behaviour are susceptible to exploitation by selfish cheats that gain the benefit of cooperation without investing their share of the public good cost. Understanding such bacterial social interactions and the underlying molecular mechanisms gives insight into their complex social life in natural environments and can be used to develop alternative treatments for pathogenic bacteria that rely on such social interactions for virulence and to infect hosts. In this thesis I examine social behaviours expressed by the opportunistic pathogen, Pseudomonas aeruginosa. I develop an understanding of bacterial social dynamics, particularly competitive dynamics between cooperator and cheat strains and strains that engage in bacteriocin-mediated chemical warfare. I investigate bacterial cheat-cooperator systems in several ways: 1) I begin with a review describing the evolution of and response to cheating across a range of organisms and discuss the confusion that arises in identifying cheats particularly in microbial studies and therefore propose a key to identify cheating behaviour. 2) I empirically test whether cheating behaviour is context dependent in bacterial populations and reveal that the ability to cheat varies with the abiotic and social environment, which are two fluctuating conditions in natural environments. 3) I take an experimental approach to investigate why cheat invasion is not commonly observed in natural bacterial populations by testing the effect of cooperative bacterial growth dynamics on cheating ability. I find that secretion of public goods varies with bacterial growth dynamics and physiological growth stages which may explain why cheat invasion is more commonly observed in lab cultures and not in established natural populations. 4) In the final chapter I experimentally use natural isolates to examine the role of bacteriocins in mediating competition in pathogenic populations and find that contrary to empirical and theoretical work, bacteriocins do not play a significant role in strain competitive success and dominance. The thesis has laid groundwork for studying and understanding the role of social behaviours in bacterial systems and for further exploring social dynamics in natural bacterial populations.

▼ Arsenic is the most pervasive environmental toxic substance. As a consequence of its ubiquity, nearly every organism has genes for resistance to inorganic arsenic. In one project I examined the role of glutaredoxin 2 (Grx2) in reduction of arsenate to arsenite. I demonstrated that Grx2 has both glutaredoxin thiol transfer activity and glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity. In a second project investigated arsenic resistance in a microbiome organism. I discovered that the human gut microflora B. vulgatus has eight continuous genes in its genome and these genes form an arsenical-inducible transcriptional unit. In two other projects I investigated the properties of two As(III) S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) methyltransferase (ArsM in microbes and AS3MT in animals). In this project we demonstrate that most fungal species have ArsM orthologs with only three conserved cysteine residues, and AfArsM from Aspergillus fumigatus methylates only MAs(III) and not As(III). For human, arsenic methylation process is thought to be protective from acute high-level arsenic exposure. However, with long term low-level exposure, hAS3MT is thought to produce intracellular methylarsenite (MAs(III)) and dimethylarsenite (DMAs(III)), which are considerably more toxic than inorganic As(III) and may contribute to arsenic-related diseases. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in putative regulatory elements of the hAS3MT gene have been shown to be protective. In contrast, three previously identified exonic SNPs (R173W, M287T and T306I) may be deleterious. I identified five additional intragenic variants in hAS3MT (H51R, C61W, I136T, W203C and R251H). I purified the eight polymorphic hAS3MT proteins and characterized their enzymatic properties. Each enzyme had low methylation activity through decreased affinity for substrate, lower overall rates of catalysis and/or lower stability. I propose that amino acid substitutions in hAS3MT with decreased catalytic activity lead to detrimental responses to environmental arsenic and may increase the risk of arsenic-related diseases.

▼ Background: The Bullitt Center is a six-story, 50,000 square-foot green building that emphasizes energy efficiency and environmental performance based on design and operation. Microorganisms found in indoor surface environments most often come from human sources or by transport from the outdoor environment. Quantity and location of surface microbes can change due to re-aerosolization with human activity and building air movement. Few studies have been performed on surface microbes in green buildings. The aims are 1) Validate a sponge processing method based on literature review and 2) Characterize microbial populations from surfaces in the Bullitt building. Methods: Three processing methods (shaker table, hand massage, and stomacher 400 circulator) were evaluated for microbial recovery from 3MTM sampling sponges with 10 ml neutralizing buffer. Sponges were spiked with 1 to 3E8 E. coli B cells and cells recovered by each method. DNA from recovered cells was extracted (MO BIO PowerSoilTM DNA Isolation Kit), quantified by nanodrop (ND-3300) using picogreen, and E. coli specific targets amplified by qPCR (with fluorescent probe). The best processing method was determined by examining both percent recoveries of CFU and C(t) values. The Bullitt surface samples were processed by the most efficient elution method followed by DNA extraction, nanodrop quantification of nucleic acid, and Illumina 16S metagenomic sequencing to characterize the microbes that were present. Results: Hand massage was determined to be the most effective elution method based on the highest and most consistent calculated percent recoveries of CFUs ranging on average from 32.2-69.3%. C(t) values gave inconsistent results using undiluted nucleic acid, but tighter results using 10-fold dilutions of the sponge extractions ranging from (16.7-35.8% for shaker table, 15.3-42.1% for hand massage, and 25.7-52.7% for stomacher) suggesting the presence of inhibitors. Throughout the study, nucleic acid results ranged from (0-5121.5 ng/ml). The highest nucleic acid values were observed in June ranging from (78.1-5121.5 ng/ml). Results from Illumina 16S (>10% OTUs) showed changes in microbial populations over time at each location. Results from all 16S data showed that the high bloom conditions for Streptophyta were observed in April 2014 with a percent abundance as high as 93.9%. The high bloom conditions for Sandaracinobacter were observed in August/November 2013 with a percent abundance as high as 40.1%, then decreases significantly for the rest of the timeline. Data on the top ten microbes based on the number of reads in each sample showed high abundance levels of environment associated microbes and distinct levels of human associated microbes in June. Conclusion: Validation of hand massage as a sponge processing method was the best compared to the shaker table and stomacher methods and can be used for future studies to characterize microbial populations. Nanodrop and Illumina 16S results provided information in the change of quantity of surface microbes at each… Advisors/Committee Members: Meschke, John S (advisor).

▼ Marine microbes control the flux of energy and chemicals in the ocean and therefore mediate ocean productivity and biogeochemistry, which ultimately sustains marine life and controls global climate. A numerically and functionally important group of marine microbes, for which there is currently a significant gap in knowledge regarding their ecology and biogeography, are the photoheterotrophic bacteria. These microbes, including both Aerobic Anoxygenic Phototrophic Bacteria (AAnPB) and proteorhodopsin based phototrophic bacteria and Archaea (PRBA) comprise up to 70% of microbial communities within surface waters of the ocean. Capable of gaining energy from light-induced proton translocation and from the oxidation of organic material, these often highly abundant bacteria have been proposed to significantly influence marine biogeochemistry and trophodynamics. However, the environmental (i.e. physicochemical, seasonal, oceanographic) factors influencing the abundance and diversity of these organisms are currently poorly defined, particularly within the often highly productive waters of the Southern Hemisphere. The aim of this thesis was to examine changes in photoheterotrophic community abundance and composition in coastal waters of Australia and identify the key environmental influences on the ecology of these microbes. Samples collected from a combination of oceanographic research voyages and time-series sampling regimes were analysed using both amplicon sequencing approaches and quantitative PCR targeting pufM and proteorhodopsin genes to characterise AAnPB and PRBA populations respectively. High temporal resolution analysis of photohetetrophic bacterial population dynamics in the coastal waters of Australia indicated seasonality in the abundance and diversity of these groups. Along the eastern coast of Australia, AAnPB abundance was highly variable, with pufM gene copies ranging from 1.1 x 10² to 1.4 x 10⁵ mL⁻¹, and positively correlated with day length and solar radiation. pufM gene amplicon sequencing revealed that the majority of sequences were closely related to those obtained previously in other environments, suggesting that key AAnPB groups are widely distributed across similar environments globally. Temperature was a major structuring factor for AAnPB assemblages across large spatial scales, correlating positively with richness and Gammaproteobacteria (phylogroup K) abundance, but negatively with Roseobacter-clade (phylogroup E) abundance, with temperatures between 16-18 °C identified as a potential transition zone between these groups. Coastal PRBA assemblages were also dynamic in both space and time, with diversity correlated to indicators of waterbody oligotrophy including positively to temperature, Secchi depth and Prochlorococcus cell abundance and negatively to phosphate concentration. Shifts in taxonomic composition were best explained by temperature and day length. Seasonality in taxonomic structure was accompanied by temporal variability in proteorhodopsin spectral tuning. Finally, we provide evidence…

▼ Antarctic waters are amongst the most vulnerable in the world to ocean acidification due to their cold temperatures, naturally low levels of calcium carbonate and upwelling that brings deep CO(₂)-rich waters to the surface. A meta-analysis demonstrated groups of Antarctic marine biota in waters south of 60°S have a range of tolerances to ocean acidification. Invertebrates and phytoplankton showed negative effects above 500 μatm and 1000 μatm CO(₂) respectively, while bacteria appear tolerant to elevated CO(₂). Phytoplankton studied as part of a natural microbial community were found to be more sensitive than those studied as a single species in culture. This highlights the importance of community and ecosystem level studies, which incorporate the interaction and competition among species and trophic levels, to accurately assess the effects of ocean acidification on the Antarctic ecosystem. Antarctic marine microbes (comprising phytoplankton, protozoa and bacteria) drive ocean productivity, nutrient cycling and mediate trophodynamics and the biological pump. While they appear vulnerable to changes in ocean chemistry, little is known about the nature and magnitude of their responses to ocean acidification, especially for natural communities. To address this lack of information, a six level, dose-response ocean acidification experiment was conducted in Prydz Bay, East Antarctica, using 650 L incubation tanks (minicosms). The minicosms were filled with Antarctic nearshore water and adjusted to a gradient of carbon dioxide (CO(₂)) from 343 to 1641 μatm. Microscopy and phylogenetic marker gene sequence analysis found the microbial community composition altered at CO(₂) levels above approximately 1000 μatm. The CO(₂)- induced responses of icroeukaryotes (>20 μm) and nanoeukaryotes (2 to 20 μm) were taxon-specific. For diatoms the response of taxa was related to cell size with micro-sized diatoms (>20 μm) increasing in abundance with moderate CO(₂) (506 to 634 μatm), while above this level their abundance declined. In contrast, nano-size diatoms (<20 μm) tolerated elevated CO(₂). Like large diatoms, Phaeocystis antarctica increased in abundance between 343 to 634 μatm CO(₂) but fell at higher levels. 18S and 16S rDNA sequencing showed that picoeukaryotic and prokaryotic composition was unaffected by CO(₂), despite having higher abundances at CO(₂) levels 1634 μatm. This was likely due to the lower abundance of heterotrophic nanoflagellates at CO(₂) levels exceeding 953 μatm, which reduced the top-down control of their pico- and nanoplanktonic prey. As a result of the differences in the tolerance of individual taxa/size categories, CO(₂) caused a significant change in the microbial community structure to one dominated by nano-sized diatoms, picoeukaryotes and prokaryotes. Based on the CO(₂)-induced changes in the microbial community, modelling was performed to investigate the future effects of different levels of elevated CO(₂) on the structure and function of microbial…

▼ Anthropogenic actions have significantly increased biological nitrogen (N) availability on a global scale. In tallgrass prairies, this phenomenon is exacerbated by land management changes, such as fire suppression. Historically, tallgrass prairie fire removed N through volatilization, but fire suppression has contributed to increased soil N availability as well as woody encroachment. Because soil microbes respond to N availability and plant growth, these changes may alter microbial composition and important microbially-mediated functions. Grassland management affects the soil environment on multiple time scales including short (fertilization or fire event), seasonal (growing vs. non-growing season), and long-term (decadal plant turnover and nutrient accumulation), therefore my goal was to understand community variability at different time scales affecting the population and community dynamics of soil microbes. I predicted soil microbes would be sensitive to environmental changes at all time scales, seasonal variation would reflect increased plant rhizodeposit-supported populations during summer and decomposers during winter, and long-term fire suppression and chronic fertilization would drive soil microbial community turnover associated with accumulation of plant litter and N. To address these predictions, soils were collected from the Belowground Plot Experiment (BGPE) at Konza Prairie Biological Station: a 30-y factorial field manipulation of N fertilization and burning. Surface soils (0-15 cm) were sampled monthly between Nov 2014 – Dec 2015, including one week post-fire (April) and post-fertilization (June). Genomic DNA was extracted from each sample for qPCR and PCR for Illumina MiSeq library sequencing of the prokaryotic 16S rRNA gene and fungal ITS, to estimate population and community dynamics of soil microbes. Soil environmental characteristics and plant communities were measured in July 2015 to evaluate correlations between plant and microbial communities, and environmental variability. Soil microbial responses to short-term fire/fertilization events were minimal, while microbial population sizes fluctuate seasonally and synchronously, and microbial community composition varied more with management history than at shorter time scales. Bacterial populations increased 10x during growing-season plant rhizodeposition, while fungal populations were less dynamic, but decreased in fall, possibly reflecting a shift to subsistence on soil organic matter. In contrast, microbial community composition was seasonally stable, but distinct between long-term management treatments, which may indicate accumulation of niche-defining plant or soil properties over decades. Prokaryotic communities responded to altered N availability via both fertilization and loss due to fire, with the highest abundance of "copiotrophic" (r-selected) taxa in unburned, fertilized soils. Fungal communities responded to N fertilization with higher abundance of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, pathogens, and saprotrophs, possibly due to changes in… Advisors/Committee Members: Lydia H.

▼ The genus Streptomyces is the source of approximately two-thirds of all clinically-used antibiotics. Despite being the source of so many specialised metabolites, genomic analysis indicates that most Streptomyces strains have the potential to produce around twenty-five bioactive metabolites, some of which may be the basis of novel therapies. This makes culture collections of Streptomyces spp. an easily accessible (but under-used) resource to mine for genomic and metabolomic variety. Therefore, the main aim of this project was to initiate exploitation of the culture collection at NCIMB Ltd., by expanding the available chemical space from under-utilised Streptomyces for the production of novel antibiotics. This primarily used a mixture of metabolomic and genomic methods. A high-throughput culture parameter screen was designed around multiple carbon sources, nitrogen sources and extraction sample times. This was tested on the model species S. coelicolor A3(2) to compare differences in the production of known specialised metabolites, using UPLC-MS to analyse crude extracts from growth on agar. Data was analysed using MZmine and putative metabolites were identified using freely-available MS/MS databases - primarily GNPS. This showed clear variation in production of nine identified metabolites - including deferoxamines, germicidins, undecylprodigiosin and coelichelin - as a result of different culture parameters. Therefore, the screen successfully expanded the available chemical space, so was applied to non-model Streptomyces strains. The screen was used to compare the total metabolomic variety produced by three Streptomyces, isolated from different environments, in order to select a strain for further investigation. Comparing metabolomic features using principal component analysis showed the Costa Rican soil isolate S. costaricanus to produce the most variety versus the other two Streptomyces strains. The metabolite family most responsible for principal component separation was identified as the actinomycins. Scale-up of both agar and broth culture was used for metabolite dereplication and bioassays against multidrug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, which is one of the bacteria on the World Health Organisation's list of pathogens that most urgently require new therapies. Fractions were derived from broth culture supernatant and agar crude extract by flash chromatography, resulting in semi-purified fractions. The predominant metabolite families in fractions were actinomycins and deferoxamines, which were further split by polarity into separate fractions. This resulted in rapid purification of metabolites, with one fraction comprising 80% deferoxamine B by weight. Fractions were tested against A. baumannii using the 2,3-bis (2-methoxy-4-nitro-5-sulfophenyl)-5-[(phenylamino)carbonyl]-2H-tetrazolium hydroxide (XTT) assay, which showed partial inhibition of growth at 50 μg/ml. Examining the bioactive fractions showed potentially novel minor peaks that could be responsible for bioactivity. A high-quality full genome of S.…

▼ The purpose of this research was to improve ruminal nutrient metabolism and nutrient digestion representations in the Molly cow model. First, the model accuracy and precision were assessed using a dataset including 229 studies (n = 938 treatments) conducted with dairy and beef cattle. The model evaluation results indicated the mechanisms encoded in the model relative to ruminal and total tract nutrient digestion are properly represented. However, ruminal pH was very poorly represented in the model with a RMSE of 4.6% and a concordance correlation coefficient (CCC) of 0.0. Although VFA concentrations had negligible mean (2.5% of MSE) and slope (6.8% of MSE) bias, the CCC was 0.28 implying that further modifications with respect to VFA production and absorption are required to improve model precision. As identified by the residual analyses, the representations of N recycling between blood and the gut were improved by considering ruminal ammonia outflow, intestinal urea entry, microbial protein synthesis in the hindgut, and fecal urea N excretion in the model. Observations of total urea entry, gut urea entry, and urinary urea elimination rates were collected from 15 published urea kinetics studies were used to derive related parameters. After the modifications, prediction errors for ruminal outflows of total N, microbial N, and non-ammonia non-microbial N were 39.5, 27.8 and 35.9% of the respective observed mean values. Prediction errors of each were approximately 10% units less than the corresponding values before model modifications and fitting due primarily to decreased slope bias. The revised model predicted ruminal ammonia and blood urea concentrations with substantially decreased overall error and reductions in slope and mean bias. After that, ammonia concentration as a driver was added to the pH equation, and a dataset assembled from the literature containing 284 peer reviewed studies with 1223 treatment means was used to derive parameter estimates for ruminal metabolism and nutrient digestions. Refitting the parameters significantly improved the accuracy and precision of the model predictions for ruminal nutrient outflow (ADF, NDF, total N, microbial N, non-ammonia N, and non-ammonia, non-microbial N), ammonia concentrations, and fecal nutrient outflow (protein, ADF, and NDF). Therefore, the improved model can be used to simulate nutrient degradation and digestion in the bovine. Although minor mean and slope bias were observed for ruminal pH and VFA concentrations, the small values for concordance correlations indicated much of the observed variation in these variables remains unexplained. To further explain variance in ruminal metabolism and understand how ruminal pH affects the microbial community, expression of carbohydrate-active enzyme transcripts (CAZymes), fiber degradation, and short chain fatty acid (SCFA) concentrations, six cannulated Holstein heifers with an initial BW of 362 ± 22 kg (mean ± SD) were subjected to 2 treatments in a cross-over design.

▼ Faba bean is an important nitrogen-fixing crop in the Andes. It is also an essential component of the diet for many peasants in this region, as it is a source of calcium and protein. Faba bean production is limited by disease and drought in Bolivia. The major disease that affects faba production and reduces yields in Bolivia is chocolate spot, caused by Botrytis species (B. cinerea, B. fabae and B. fabiopsis). When humidity levels reach at least 90% and air temperatures are between 15-22°C the disease can harshly limit the growth of the infected plant and lead to yield losses of 50-100% (Zhang et al., 2010). Growing conditions in Bolivia are extremely conducive for Botrytis disease progression. Seed treatments of Bacillus subtilis (GB122) and B. amyloquefaciens (GB99) reduce chocolate spot disease (in green house trials) and promote faba growth (field trials) in Pennsylvania. Using these seed treatments hold promise to reduce chocolate spot in Bolivia. Currently the Bolivian government has approved registration for production and use of various Bacillus species at PROINPA. These include B. subtilis and B. amyloliquefaciens strains that should be applied to faba seed in production fields across the Bolivian Andes. Over 200 Botrytis spp. isolates were collected from symptomatic tissue on of faba bean in fields in Pennsylvania. Sixteen of these isolates were selected to represent culture morphological characteristics. In order to understand disease caused by Botrytis species in Pennsylvania a phylogenetic analysis with 16 Botrytis isolates was performed. Four gene regions were sequenced; Gylceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G3PDH), Heat-shock protein-60 (HSP60), RNA-dependent, DNA-polymerase subunit-2 (RPB2) and Internal transcribed spacer region 4/5 (ITS). These gene regions were used to create 4 neighbor-joining trees in MEGA. The results of this analysis indicate that chocolate spot of faba bean in Pennsylvania is caused by two distinct species, B. fabiopsis and B. cinerea. Botrytis fabiopsis was the most common isolate found in PA field trials in 2 years (2011 and 2013). This is the first report of B. fabiopsis in Pennsylvania and the United States. Botrytis fabiopsis has similar culture growth characteristics to B. cinerea, however B. fabiopsis can only produce conidia from sclerotia (at near UV light) and on plant material. Botrytis cinerea can produce conidia from mycelium as well as sclerotia on plants.

▼ Microbes are key players in global biogeochemical cycles. Despite their importance, many ecosystem models do not explicitly consider microbial communities and their functions. One reason for this is that we lack a quantitative understanding of the role that microbes play in biogeochemical processes, making their incorporation into models difficult. My dissertation takes a step towards establishing these links between microbial community composition and ecosystem function using two different approaches. The first approach was characterizing the patterns and drivers of a handful of traits associated with a key biogeochemical process, the nitrogen (N) cycle and then asking which taxa were associated with this trait. I tested this approach in one ecosystem and provided a blueprint of the nitrogen cycling potential of a grassland litter microbial community (Chapter 1). I then extended this work to characterize the global biogeography of microbial N cycling traits and investigated what environmental drivers might underlie these patterns (Chapter 2). Moving beyond patterns, understanding the processes driving the distribution of microbial communities presents a further challenge. Thus, the second approach taken in my dissertation was an experimental approach to investigate the local processes driving variation in bacterial community composition and functioning. More specifically, I focused on disentangling the effects of selection, drift, and dispersal on community assembly. First, I investigated how dispersal influences the assembly of this natural bacterial community using time series data from a field experiment (Chapter 3). I found that changing dispersal rate altered bacterial colonization rates and led to differences in the abundance, richness, evenness, and composition of communities. I then used another field experiment to quantify the role of stochastic processes in shaping microbial communities (Chapter 4). Here, I identified stochastic variation in bacterial community composition even after accounting for measurement error. Furthermore, stochastic variation in community composition translated into variation in functional parameters. Ultimately, the ability to accurately quantify stochastic processes is paramount to determining the predictability of community composition and functioning, whether focused on bacteria that degrade plant litter, microbes in the human gut, or patterns of global biodiversity.

▼ Coral reefs are often considered as the proverbial canary in the mine for the oceans. Their current decline alarmingly correlates with indirect and direct anthropogenic stress resulting in increased frequencies and geographic spread of mass mortality, i.e., coral bleaching, and disease events. Thus, a rapid advancement in the understanding of the factors determining coral health and disease is of great importance. The post-genomic era has propelled both the development of high-throughput technologies and a shift in biological research from reductionist to system-level approaches. By viewing an organism as an integrated and interacting network of genes, proteins, and biochemical reactions, the nascent field of systems biology seeks to understand biological processes at a holistic level. In this dissertation, corals are considered as superorganisms, or holobionts, i.e., biological entities composed of a host organism and all of its associated microorganisms. The microbial component has been shown to play key roles in the functioning of the coral holobiont, but much remains to be studied about its 1) diversity, 2) response to stress, and 3) influence on the physiology, ecology, and evolution of the host. To address these gaps, I have applied a combinatorial approach of 454-sequencing, microbial community profiling (Phylochip), algal and host genotyping, as well as cDNA microarrays. The results include the most comprehensive census of coral-associated bacteria so far and illustrate that corals provide specialized habitats for an extremely diverse consortium of bacteria, including taxa that are often unknown, as well as rarely or not detected in the seawater. In diseased corals, bacterial communities profiles shifted and displayed a higher abundance of bacteria that are commonly found in other diseased marine invertebrates. Finally, correlating algal genotype and coral host transcriptomic data revealed a substantial interaction between microbial symbionts and host gene expression. These results represent initial efforts towards capturing the parts lists, i.e., the microbial diversity in coral holobionts, and integrating them with host transcriptomic data. The relevance of the results are discussed in the context of an envisioned coral (eco)systems biology approach to advance our understanding of coral health and disease.

An experiment was performed to investigate if fermentation biomass (FB), a dried bacterial co-product derived from lysine production (Ajinomoto Heartland, Inc.) can be used as a protein source in ruminant diets. Eight dual-flow continuous culture fermenters were inoculated with rumen fluid and used during one experimental period consisting of a 7-d adaptation period followed by 3 sampling days. Substrate for the microbes was provided by one of two isonitrogenous diets, CON or DFB. In CON, soybean meal (SBM) provided 57% of total CP, and in DFB, SBM and FB provided 12 and 45% of total CP, respectively. CON contained 3% molasses, 16% ground corn, 13% grass hay, 48% corn silage, and 20% SBM on a DM basis. DFB contained 3% molasses, 18.4% ground corn, 13% grass hay, 50% corn silage, 8.5% SBM, and 6.7% FB. Fermenters were supplied with 75 g/d of DM divided into 8 equal portions. Anaerobic conditions were maintained by infusion of N2; pH was maintained between 5.8 and 6.8; and temperature was set at 39C. On sampling days, liquid and solid effluent were collected, combined, and homogenized to be used for chemical analysis and in vitro estimation of intestinal digestibility (ID). Treatment did not affect (P > 0.1) average, maximum, or minimum fermenter pH. There was no effect (P > 0.1) on apparent or true OM, NDF, or ADF digestibility (%) or total VFA (mM), although branched-chain VFA (mM) was higher (P = 0.01) in CON because isobutyrate (mol/100 mol) tended (P = 0.06) to increase with CON treatment. Source of N had no effect (P > 0.1) on total, dietary, or bacterial-N flows. Addition of FB decreased (P < 0.05) NH3-N flow from 0.4 to 0.2 g/d and tended to decrease (P =0.06) effluent NH3-N concentration from 17.1 to 9.7 mg/100 mL. His and Met flows increased (P < 0.05) from 0.48 to 0.53 and 0.18 to 0.20 g/d, respectively, when FB partially replaced SBM in the diet, but there were no effects (P > 0.1) on other AA or total AA flows. There was a trend (P = 0.08) in percent non-essential AA input (CON = 73.6% vs. DFB = 82.2%) in effluent; however, there was no effect (P > 0.1) on percent of essential AA or total AA input in effluent. Effluent from the DFB treatment was higher (P < 0.05) in ID than CON (CON = 70.4% vs. DFB = 79.6%). These results indicate that FB elicited a similar response in N metabolism and AA flows to SBM but had a higher estimated digestibility in the intestine, and has potential use as a protein source in ruminant diets. In a second experiment, rumen fluid was collected from 4 steers fed the same diet, and 3 populations of rumen microorganisms (liquid-associated bacteria (LAB), solid-associated bacteria (SAB), and liquid-associated protozoa (LAP)) were isolated by differential centrifugation. Intestinal digestibility of N (ID) was determined using the in vitro (pepsin and pancreatin) steps of the 3-step procedure of Calsamiglia and Stern (1995). Total-N content…
