The world is facing a hard battle against soil pollution such as heavy metals. Metagenome sequencing, 16S rRNA and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) were used to examine microbial adaptation mechanism contaminated sediments under natural conditions. Results showed that sediment from tributary of the Yellow River, which was named Dongdagou River (DDG) supported less bacterial biomass owned lower richness than Maqu (MQ), an uncontaminated site in upper reaches River. Additionally,...
Combined pollutants with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and heavy metals have been identified as toxic unmanageable contaminates. In this work, Pseudomonas gessardii strain LZ-E isolated from wastewater discharge site of a petrochemical company degrades naphthalene reduces Cr(VI) simultaneously. 95% 10mgL(-1) was reduced to Cr(III) while 77% 800mgL(-1) degraded when incubated in BH medium for 48h. Furthermore, promotes reduction catechol phthalic acid produced degradation are able...
Gut microbiota has been identified as a key player in the development of alcoholic liver disease (ALD). Targeting gut with probiotic intervention will be an attractive approach to prevent ALD. Here, we investigated effects Bifidobacterium breve ATCC15700 (ATCC15700) on injury and mice exposed chronic alcohol intake. Our results showed that oral administration significantly decreased endotoxemia, maintained immune homeostasis, alleviated alcohol-induced injury. also promoted intestinal...
Soil contamination by PAH and heavy metals is a growing problem. Here, we showed that new isolate, Pseudomonas brassicacearum strain LZ-4, can simultaneously degrade 98% of 6 mM naphthalene reduce 92.4% 500 μM hexavalent chromium [Cr (VI)] within 68 h. A draft genome sequence LZ-4 (6,219,082 bp) revealed all the genes in catabolic pathway some known Cr (VI) reductases. Interestingly, encoding components were upregulated presence (VI), reduction was elevated naphthalene. We cloned expressed...
The acquisition and development of the mammalian microbiome early in life are critical to establish a healthy host-microbiome symbiosis. Despite recent advances understanding microbial sources infants, relative contribution various colonization gut microbiota pigs remains unclear. Here, we longitudinally sampled 20 sow-piglet pairs (three piglets per sow) reared under identical conditions from multiple body sites surrounding weaning environment birth 28 days postpartum (1,119 samples total)....
Microbial community assembly mechanisms are pivotal for understanding the ecological functions of microorganisms in biogeochemical cycling Earth's ecosystems, yet rarely investigated context deep terrestrial ecology. Here, microbial communities production waters collected from water injection wells and oil across eight reservoirs throughout northern China were determined analyzed by proportional distribution analysis null model analysis. A 'core' microbiota consisting three bacterial genera,...
Phenanthrene is one of the most recalcitrant components crude oil-contaminated wastewater. An efficient phenanthrene-degrading bacterium Pseudomonas sp. strain named LZ-Q was isolated from soil near sewage outlet a petrochemical company. able to degrade 1000 mg/L phenanthrene in Bushnell-Hass mineral salt medium. It also degrades other polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons such as naphthalene, anthracene, pyrene, petrol, and diesel at broad ranges salinities 5 g/L 75 g/L, pHs 5.0–10.0,...
Alpine lakes are considered pristine freshwater ecosystems and sensitive to direct indirect changes in water temperature as induced by climate change. The bacterial plankton constitutes a key component the column metabolic activity has consequences for quality. In order understand response global rise five alpine located Austrian Alps (1700-2188 m a.S.L.) was compared within decadal period. Depth-integrated samples were characterized community composition 16S rDNA deep-amplicon sequencing...
Abstract The disturbing effect of a short-term cooling period during summer on planktonic bacterial community structure an alpine lake was investigated using 16S rDNA pyrosequencing. Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, and Bacteroidetes constituted the most abundant phyla. During sampling (from July to August 2010), sudden with high precipitation occurred, as indicated by decrease in conductivity, calcium, dissolved organic carbon concentration resulting from increased runoff. relative abundance...
It has been generally hypothesized that mobile elements can induce genomic rearrangements and influence the distribution functionality of toxic/bioactive peptide synthesis pathways in microbes. In this study, we performed depth analysis by completing genomes 13 phylogenetically diverse strains bloom-forming freshwater cyanobacteria
Autonomous artificial intelligence (AI) agents have emerged as promising protocols for automatically understanding the language-based environment, particularly with exponential development of large language models (LLMs). However, a fine-grained, comprehensive multimodal environments remains under-explored. This work designs an autonomous workflow tailored integrating AI seamlessly into extended reality (XR) applications fine-grained training. We present demonstration training assistant LEGO...
Abstract Background : Microbial communities exist everywhere on the earth, and play essential roles in biogeochemical cycling all ecosystems. Understanding microbial community assembly mechanisms could improve our ability to manage ecosystems for industrial, pharmaceutical, agricultural applications. Previous studies have shown that are shaped by deterministic or stochastic processes, but how these two processes influence together is rarely investigated, especially deep terrestrial ecology....
