Abstract
The short time-scale dynamics of three families of Bdellovibrio and like organisms (i.e. Bdellovibrionaceae, Peredibacteraceae, and Bacteriovoracaceae) were studied on the surface waters of Lake Geneva in summer. Using mesocosms deployed nearshore in July 2019, we simulated an extreme climatic event (an input of carbon from the watershed in response to runoff from the catchment, light reduction, and mixing in response to stormy conditions) and aimed to study the impact of both abiotic and biotic factors on their dynamics. The three families of Bdellovibrio and like organisms (BALOs) showed different dynamics during the experiment. Peredibacteraceae was the most abundant group, whereas Bacteriovoracaceae was the least abundant. Compared with the other two families, the abundance of Bdellovibrionaceae did not fluctuate, remaining relatively stable over time. Environmental variables only partially explained the dynamics of these families; in particular, temperature, pH, and chloride concentrations were positively correlated with Bacteriovoracaceae, Bdellovibrionaceae, and Peredibacteraceae abundance, respectively. Prokaryote-like particles (PLPs), such as those with high DNA content (HDNA), were strongly and positively correlated with Peredibacteraceae and Bacteriovoracaceae. In contrast, no relationships were found between Bdellovibrionaceae and PLP abundance, nor between the virus-like particles (VLPs) and the different BALOs. Overall, the experiment revealed that predation was stable in the face of the simulated climatic events. In addition, we observed that Peredibacteraceae and Bacteriovoracaceae share common traits, while Bdellovibrionaceae seems to constitute a distinct category.

Abstract
Bdellovibrio and like organisms (BALOs) are obligate bacterial predators of other Gram-negative bacteria. Here, we used quantitative PCR (qPCR) and recently developed specific primers which target the 16S rRNA gene to explore the abundance and distribution of three families of BALO belonging to the Oligoflexia class (i.e., Bdellovibrionaceae, Peredibacteraceae and Bacteriovoracaceae) over one year in the epilimnion and hypolimnion of Lakes Annecy and Geneva. Peredibacteraceae was the dominant group at all sampling points except at the bottom of Lake Geneva, where Bdellovibrionaceae was found in higher number. In addition, the abundance of BALOs increased significantly during the warmer months. Using high-throughput sequencing (Illumina Miseq), hundreds of OTUs were identified for Bdellovibrionaceae and Peredibacteraceae. Phylogenetic analysis suggests that Bdellovibrionaceae are more diverse than Peredibacteraceae and that some OTUs belong to new species of Bdellovibrionaceae. We also found that dominant OTUs were present simultaneously in the two lakes, while some others were specific to each lake, suggesting an adaptive pattern. Finally, both abundance and diversity of BALOs were poorly associated with abiotic factors except temperature, suggesting the importance of studying biotic relationships, assumed to play a greater role than physico-chemical variables in BALOs' dynamics and distribution.

Abstract
The advanced nitrogen removal under low temperature is inhibited because of reduction of the microbial activity. Packed bed reactors filled with different magnetic carriers (0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9 mT) were constructed to enhance advanced denitrification under low temperature (5 ℃). Results showed that 0.3 and 0.9 mT carriers significantly improved denitrification, indicating the "window" effect. Total nitrogen removals were increased by 6.96% and 8.25%, and NO2- accumulation decreased by 25.70% and 13.90% in 0.3 and 0.9 mT reactors, respectively. Analysis of enzyme activity and electron transport chain showed that 0.3 mT carrier mainly increased NIR activity by improving compound III and cytC abundance while 0.9 mT carrier mainly increased NAR activity by improving compound I and NADH abundance, indicating different pathways. Similar microbial community in 0.3 and 0.9 mT reactors were revealed. Overall, weak magnetic carriers can be used to enhance advanced nitrogen removal under low temperature.

Performance evaluation and mechanism of nitrogen removal in a packed bed reactor using micromagnetic carriers at different carbon to nitrogen ratios. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2021; 341:125747. [PMID: 34461406 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2021.125747] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/16/2021] [Revised: 08/05/2021] [Accepted: 08/07/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Advanced nitrogen removal of effluent discharged from secondary treatment systems can avoid eutrophication. However, the lack of biodegradable organics limits biodenitrification. Packed bed reactors filled with carriers with different micromagnetic field (MMF) strengths were used to perform tertiary denitrification. The results showed that MMF significantly improved the denitrification performance, especially at low C/N ratios. Total nitrogen (TN) removal was increased by 4.12% with 0.6 mT MMF when C/N = 4 and increased by 7.06% and 8.06% with 0.3 mT and 0.9 mT MMFs when C/N = 3, respectively. Zooglea, Flavobacterium, and Denitratisoma contributed to the advanced denitrification performance under MMF. In addition, 0.6 mT MMF enhanced nitrogen metabolism and ABC transporter protein and two-component system activities of microorganisms under C/N = 4; 0.3 mT and 0.9 mT MMFs increased nitrogen, carbohydrate, and amino acid metabolism and ABC transporter protein activities under C/N = 3. These findings indicate that MMF has great potential for advanced denitrification from secondary effluent.

Abstract
Almost sixty years ago, Bdellovibrio and like organisms (BALOs) were discovered as the first obligate bacterial predators of other bacteria known to science. Since then, they were shown to be diverse and ubiquitous in the environment, and to bear astonishing ecological, physiological, and metabolic capabilities. The last decade has seen important strides made in understanding the mechanistic basis of their life cycle, the dynamics of their interactions with prey, along with significant developments towards their use in medicine, agriculture, and industry. This review details these achievements, identify current understanding and knowledge gaps to encourage and guide future BALO research.
