Abstract
A Gram-negative, ellipsoidal to short-rod-shaped, motile bacterium was isolated from Beijing's urban air. The isolate exhibited the closest kinship with Noviherbaspirillum aerium 122213-3T, exhibiting 98.4 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences and genomes showed that it clustered closely with N. aerium 122213-3T, thus forming a distinct phylogenetic lineage within the genus Noviherbaspirillum. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain I16B-00201T and N. aerium 122213-3T were 84.6 and 29.4 %, respectively. The respiratory ubiquinone was ubiquinone 8. The major fatty acids (>10 %) were summed feature 3 (C16:1ω6c/C16:1ω7c, 43.3 %), summed feature 8 (C18:1ω7c/C18:1ω6c, 15.9 %) and C12:0 (11.0 %). The polyamine profile showed putrescine as the predominant compound. The polar lipid profile consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, unknown lipids and unknown phosphatidylaminolipids. The phenotypic, phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic results consistently supported that strain I16B-00201T represented a novel species of the genus Noviherbaspirillum, for which the name Noviherbaspirillum album sp. nov. is proposed, with I16B-00201T (=CPCC 100848T=KCTC 52095T) designated as the type strain. Its DNA G+C content is 59.4 mol%. Pan-genome analysis indicated that some Noviherbaspirillum species possess diverse nitrogen and aromatic compound metabolism pathways, suggesting their potential value in pollutant treatment.

Abstract
Strain NCCP-691T was isolated from a soil sample collected from an arid soil in Karak, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. Phenotypically, the cells were Gram-stain-negative, aerobic and motile rods. The organism was able to grow between 20-40 °C (optimum at 30-37 °C), at pH 5.5-8.0 (optimum at pH 7.0-7.2) and tolerated 0-1.5% NaCl (w/v) (optimum at 0-0.5). Based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, strain NCCP-691T formed a distinct phylogenetic clade with Noviherbaspirillum arenae, N. agri, N. denitrificans and N. autotrophicum (having sequence similarities of 99.0; 98.1; 98.0 and 97.7% respectively). Phylogenetic analyses based on the whole genome sequences confirmed that strain NCCP-691T should be affiliated to the genus Noviherbaspirillum. The average nucleotide identity values compared to other species of Noviherbaspirillum were below 95-96 % and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values were less than 70 %. Chemotaxonomic analyses showed that the strain had ubiquinone-8, as the only respiratory quinine. The major cellular fatty acids were summed feature 3 (C16 : 1 ω 7 c/C16 : 1 ω 6 c, 35.9 %), summed feature 8 (C18 : 1 ω 7 c/C18 : 1 ω 6 c, 26.9 %) and C16 : 0 (22.9 %) and the polar lipid profile was composed of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine. The genomic DNA G+C content was 65.5 mol% (from draft genome). Genome analyses showed that strain NCCP-691T had terpene and arylpolyene biosynthetic genes clusters and genes related to resistance against heavy metals. Based on phylogenetic analyses, phenotypic features and genomic comparison, it is proposed that strain NCCP-691T is a novel species of the genus Noviherbaspirillum and the name Noviherbaspirillum aridicola sp. nov. is proposed. Type strain is NCCP-691T (=KCTC 52721T=CGMCC 1.13600T).

Abstract
Bacteria belonging to the genus Herbaspirillum are found in many different ecological niches. Some species are typically endophytic, while others were reported as free-living organisms that occupy various environments. Also, opportunistic herbaspirilli have been found infecting humans affected by several diseases. We have analyzed the production of exopolysaccharides (EPS) by Herbaspirillum strains isolated from different sources and with distinct ecological characteristics. The monosaccharide composition was determined for the EPS obtained for selected strains including free-living, plant-associated and clinical isolates, and the relationship with the ecological niches occupied by Herbaspirillum spp. is proposed.

Abstract
Introduction. In recent years, the Herbaspirillum genus has emerged as a pathogen in healthcare-related infections and has became stablished as an opportunistic pathogen.Hypothesis/Gap Statement. Little is known about the pathogenesis induced by Herbaspirillum genus.Aim. To evaluate the cytotoxic effects of genus Herbaspirillum, its ability to adhere to lung human cells and the ability of environmental and clinical strains of Herbaspirillum to induce pneumonia in mice.Methodology. Environmental and clinical isolates of Herbaspirillum were examined for their cytotoxic effects on the Calu-3 cell lineage. Cytotoxic activity of secretome was tested using MTT/neutral red assays and cell morphology analysis. Herbaspirillum adhesion on Calu-3 cells was assessed using bright-field microscopy and cell-associated bacteria were counted. A mouse model of acute lung infection was done using a clinical and an environmental strain. Adult male mice were used, and the pneumonia was inducted by intra-tracheal inoculation of 108 or 109 bacteria. Mice weight variations were evaluated at the end of the experiment. Bronchoalveolar lavage was collected and evaluated for total and differential cytology. A histological examination of lungs was performed giving a histological score.Results. The secretomes of all the strains induced morphological alterations in cells, but only H. seropedicae SmR1 were cytotoxic in MTT and neutral red assays. Clinical strains of H. frisingense AU14459 and H. hutttiense subsp. huttiense AU11883 exhibited low adherence to lung cells, while SmR1 was non-adhesive. Following intratracheal inoculation, mice treated with 109 c.f.u. of the SmR1 and AU11883 strains lost 18 and 6% of their weight over 7 days, respectively, and presented moderate clinical signs. Infected mice showed inflammatory cell infiltration in the perivascular and peribroncheal/peribronchiolar spaces. Bronchoalveolar fluid of mice inoculated with SmR1 109 c.f.u. presented an increase in total leucocyte cells and in neutrophils population.Conclusion. These in vivo and in vitro results provide insights into how some Herbaspirillum strains cause infection in humans, providing a basis for the characterization of pathogenesis studies on this emerging infectious agent.

Abstract
A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile and yellow-colored bacterium, strain 17J57-3 T, was isolated from soil collected in Pyeongchang city, Korea. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain 17J57-3 T formed a distinct lineage within the family Oxalobacteraceae (order Burkholderiales, class Betaproteobacteria). Strain 17J57-3 T was the most closely related to Noviherbaspirillum humi U15T (96.4% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity) and Noviherbaspirillum massiliense JC206T (96.2%). The draft genome size of strain 17J57-3 T was 6,117,206 bp. Optimal growth occurred at 30 °C, pH 7.0 without NaCl. The predominant cellular fatty acids were summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω6c/C16:1 ω7c) and C16:0. The major respiratory quinone was Q-8. The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. Biochemical, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic analyses indicated that strain 17J57-3 T represents a novel bacterial species within the genus Noviherbaspirillum, for which the name Noviherbaspirillum galbum is proposed. The type strain of Noviherbaspirillum galbum is 17J57-3 T (= KCTC 62213 T = NBRC 114384 T).

Seasonal Variability in the Microbial Community and Pathogens in Wastewater Final Effluents. WATER 2019. [DOI: 10.3390/w11122586] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
Numerous bacteria, especially pathogens, exist in wastewater final effluents, which can lead to possible human health and ecological security risks when effluents are reused or discharged. However, the diversity, composition, and spatiotemporal dynamics of bacteria in wastewater final effluents remain poorly understood. In this study, a comprehensive analysis of the microbial community and pathogens in wastewater final effluents was performed using high-throughput sequencing. The results revealed that wastewater final effluents in autumn exhibited the highest bacterial community richness and diversity, while those in winter exhibited the lowest. Bacteria in wastewater final effluents predominantly belonged to five phyla, in the order of Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Planctomycetes, Bacteroidetes, and Firmicutes. At the species level, there were 8~15 dominant species in the wastewater final effluent in each season, and Dokdonella immobilis, Rhizobium gallicum, Candidatus Flaviluna lacus, and Planctomyces limnophilus were the most dominant species in spring, summer, autumn, and winter, respectively. The seasonal variability in bacteria suggested that the microbial diversity and community in wastewater final effluents were mainly influenced by temperature, salinity, disinfection methods, and flocculants. Notably, pathogenic bacteria in wastewater effluents had both the highest relative abundance and species abundance in summer. Arcobacter spp., Legionella spp., and Mycobacterium spp. were the dominant pathogenic bacteria, and all pathogenic bacteria were mainly associated with dermatosis, enteropathies, septicemia, and pneumonia.

Abstract
The genus Herbaspirillum includes several strains isolated from different grasses. The identification of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in the genus Herbaspirillum is an important stage studying the interaction of these molecules and the way they modulate physiological responses of different mechanisms, through RNA⁻RNA interaction or RNA⁻protein interaction. This interaction with their target occurs through the perfect pairing of short sequences (cis-encoded ncRNAs) or by the partial pairing of short sequences (trans-encoded ncRNAs). However, the companion Hfq can stabilize interactions in the trans-acting class. In addition, there are Riboswitches, located at the 5' end of mRNA and less often at the 3' end, which respond to environmental signals, high temperatures, or small binder molecules. Recently, CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats), in prokaryotes, have been described that consist of serial repeats of base sequences (spacer DNA) resulting from a previous exposure to exogenous plasmids or bacteriophages. We identified 285 ncRNAs in Herbaspirillum seropedicae (H. seropedicae) SmR1, expressed in different experimental conditions of RNA-seq material, classified as cis-encoded ncRNAs or trans-encoded ncRNAs and detected RNA riboswitch domains and CRISPR sequences. The results provide a better understanding of the participation of this type of RNA in the regulation of the metabolism of bacteria of the genus Herbaspirillum spp.

Abstract
A bacterial strain designated KMB9T was isolated from a freshwater pond in Taiwan and characterized using a polyphasic taxonomy approach. Cells of strain KMB9T were Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, poly-β-hydroxybutyrate-accumulating, motile by means of a monopolar flagellum, non-spore-forming and rods surrounded by a thick capsule and forming white-coloured colonies. Growth occurred at 20-40 °C (optimum, 25-37 °C), at pH 6.5-7.5 (optimum, pH 7.0) and with 0-0.5 % NaCl (optimum, 0 %). Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene and four housekeeping gene sequences (recA, rpoA, rpoB and atpD) showed that strain KMB9T forms a distinct phyletic line within the family Alcaligenaceae, and the levels of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to its closest relatives with validly published names were less than 93.3 %. The predominant fatty acids were summed feature 3 (comprising C16 : 1ω7c and/or C16 : 1ω6c), C16 : 0 and C18 : 1ω7c. The major isoprenoid quinone was Q-8. The major polyamine was putrescine. The polar lipid profile revealed the presence of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and several uncharacterized aminophospholipids, aminolipids, phospholipids and lipids. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain KMB9T was 54.5 mol%. On the basis of the genotypic and phenotypic data, strain KMB9T represents a novel species of a new genus in the family Alcaligenaceae, for which the name Parvibium lacunae gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KMB9T (=BCRC 81053T=LMG 30055T=KCTC 52814T).

Abstract
A new betaproteobacterium, CGI-09T, was isolated from an activated sludge bioreactor which treated landfill leachate. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, the new strain shared the highest pairwise similarity values with members of the order Burkholderiales: Derxia gummosa IAM 13946T (family Alcaligenaceae), 93.7 % and Lautropia mirabilis DSM 11362T (family Burkholderiaceae), 93.6 %. Cells of strain CGI-09T were rod-shaped and non-motile. The new strain was oxidase and catalase positive and capable of reducing nitrate to nitrite. The predominant fatty acids were C16 : 1 ω7c, C16 : 0, cycloC17 : 0 and C18 : 1 ω7c, the major respiratory quinone was Q-8, and the detected polar lipids were phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and an unknown phospholipid. The G+C content of the genomic DNA of strain CGI-09T was 70.2 mol%. The new bacterium can be distinguished from the members of genera Derxia and Lautropia based on its non-motile cells, arginine dihydrolase activity, its high cyclo C17 : 0 fatty acid content and the lack of hydroxy fatty acids. On the basis of the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and molecular data, strain CGI-09T is considered to represent a new genus and species within the family Burkholderiaceae, for which the name Quisquiliibacterium transsilvanicum gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CGI-09T (=DSM 29781T=JCM 31785T).

Abstract
A Gram-stain-negative bacterium, strain 5410S-62T, was isolated from an air sample collected in Suwon, Republic of Korea. It was aerobic, motile, mesophilic and formed rod-shaped cells. Colonies on R2A agar were convex, circular and pale orange with entire margins. Growth occurred at pH 5-9 (optimally at pH 7) and at 10-40 °C (optimally at 28 °C). It did not grow in the presence of 1% NaCl. Comparative analyses of 16S rRNA gene sequences demonstrated that the novel strain was closely related to members of the genus Noviherbaspirillum. Strain 5410S-62T showed the highest sequence similarity (98.2%) to Glaciimonas singularis A2-57T. It also showed high 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (98.1-95.6%) to members of the genus Noviherbaspirillum (98.1% to Noviherbaspirillum aurantiacum SUEMI08T, 97.8% to Noviherbaspirillum soli SUEMI10T and Noviherbaspirillum canariense SUEMI03T, 97.6% to Noviherbaspirillum psychrotolerans PB1T and 95.6% to Noviherbaspirillum malthae CC-AFH3T). The strain contained summed feature 3 (C16:1ω6c and/or C16:1ω7c), C16:0 and summed feature 8 (C18:1ω6c and/or C18:1ω7c) as major fatty acids, Q-8 as the only ubiquinone and large amounts of phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylglycerol. Strain 5410S-62T revealed less than 70% DNA-DNA relatedness with the type strains of closely related species of the genera Noviherbaspirillum and Herbaspirillum and Glaciimonas singularis. Based on the physiological, biochemical and chemotaxonomic data obtained in this study, it is proposed that strain 5410S-62T represents a novel species, Noviherbaspirillum suwonense sp. nov., with 5410S-62T (=KACC 16657T= NBRC 108944T) as the type strain.

Abstract
An aerobic, Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium with polar flagella, strain CC-AFH3(T), was isolated from an oil-contaminated site located in Kaohsiung county, Taiwan. Strain CC-AFH3(T) grew at 20-40 °C, pH 5.0-10.0 and <2 % (w/v) NaCl. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain CC-AFH3(T) showed the greatest degree of similarity to Herbaspirillum soli SUEMI10(T) (96.5 %), H. aurantiacum SUEMI08(T) (96.3 %), H. canariense SUEMI03(T) (96.0 %), H. psychrotolerans PB1(T) (95.4 %) and members of other Herbaspirillum species (94.1-95.2 %), and lower similarity to members of other genera (<94 %). Phylogenetic analyses also positioned the novel strain in the genus Herbaspirillum as an independent lineage. The major fatty acids in strain CC-AFH3(T) were C10 : 0 3-OH, C12 : 0, C14 : 0 2-OH, C16 : 0, iso-C15 : 0 3-OH, C17 : 0 cyclo, C16 : 1ω7c/C16 : 1ω6c and C18 : 1ω7c/C18 : 1ω6c. The major polar lipids of strain CC-AFH3(T) were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylcholine. The predominant quinone was ubiquinone 8 (Q-8) and the DNA G+C content was 63.4 mol%. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis in combination with physiological and chemotaxonomic data, strain CC-AFH3(T) represents a novel species in a new genus, for which we propose the name Noviherbaspirillum malthae gen. nov., sp. nov.; the type strain of Noviherbaspirillum malthae is CC-AFH3(T) ( = BCRC 80516(T) = JCM 18414(T)). We also propose the reclassification of Herbaspirillum soli, Herbaspirillum aurantiacum, Herbaspirillum canariense and 'Herbaspirillum psychrotolerans' as Noviherbaspirillum soli comb. nov. (type strain SUEMI10(T) = LMG 26149(T) = CECT 7840(T)), Noviherbaspirillum aurantiacum comb. nov. (type strain SUEMI08(T) = LMG 26150(T) = CECT 7839(T)), Noviherbaspirillum canariense comb. nov. (type strain SUEMI03(T) = LMG 26151(T) = CECT 7838(T)) and Noviherbaspirillum psychrotolerans comb. nov. (type strain PB1(T) = DSM 26001(T) = LMG 27282(T)), respectively. An emended description of Herbaspirillum seropedicae is also presented.

Abstract
A bacterial strain, designated JS5-2(T), was isolated from soil collected from Jeju Island, Republic of Korea. The cells of the strain were Gram-negative, nonspore forming, catalase- and oxidase-positive, aerobic, nonmotile and rod-shaped. Strain JS5-2(T) exhibited 96.2-97.2, 95.1-96.3, and 95.4-95.8% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to the genera Herbaspirillum, Oxalicibacterium, and Herminiimonas, respectively. The highest sequence similarities were with Herbaspirillum autotrophicum IAM 14942(T) (97.2%) and Herbaspirillum frisingense GSF30(T) (97.1%). The major fatty acids of strain JS5-2(T) were C16:0 (35.0%), C17:0 cyclo (19.9%), C18:1 ω7c (11.4%), and summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω7c/C15:0 iso 2-OH) (15.2%), and the major polar lipids of strain JS5-2(T) were diphosphatidylglycerol and an unknown aminophospholipid. The strain contained Q-8 as the predominant ubiquinone. DNA-DNA relatedness values between strain JS5-2(T) and H. autotrophicum IAM 14942(T), and H. frisingense GSF30(T) were 32 and 35%, respectively. The DNA G+C content of strain JS5-2(T) was 59.0 mol%. On the basis of phenotypic, genotypic, and physiological evidence, strain JS5-2(T) represents a novel species of a new genus, for which the name Paraherbaspirillum soli gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain JS5-2(T) (=KACC 12633(T) =NBRC 106496(T)) is proposed.

Abstract
A novel psychrotolerant, Gram-negative, shiny white, curved-rod-shaped, facultatively anaerobic bacterium PB1(T) was isolated from a soil sample collected from a glacier forefield of the Larsemann Hills, East Antarctica. Isolate PB1(T) has catalase and low urease activity and hydrolyses gelatin and starch. Strain PB1(T) is able to grow between -5 °C and 30 °C with optimum growth at 14-20 °C. Glycerol, dl-arabinose, d-xylose, d-galactose, d-fructose, d-lyxose, d-fucose and potassium gluconate are used as sole carbon sources. The major quinone is ubiquinone Q-8. The major fatty acids (>10%) for PB1(T) are C(16:0) (19.1%), C(16:1)ω7cis (44.6%) and C(18:1)ω7cis (16.2%). The major polyamines are putrescine [54.9 µmol (g dry weight)(-1)] and 2-hydroxy putrescine [18.5 µmol (g dry weight)(-1)]. DNA G+C content is 62.5 mol%. Strain PB1(T) is phylogenetically related to species of the genus Herbaspirillum, with highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to Herbaspirillum canariense (97.3%), Herbaspirillum aurantiacum (97.2%), Herbaspirillum soli (97.2%) and Herbaspirillum frisingense (97.0%). The DNA-DNA relatedness values were below 30% between PB1(T) and the type strains of Herbaspirillum canariense, Herbaspirillum aurantiacum and Herbaspirillum soli. The different geographical origin of strain PB1(T) from its closest phylogenetic relatives resulted in different phenotypic and genotypic specifications, whereby strain PB(T) represents a novel species of the genus Herbaspirillum, for which the name Herbaspirillum psychrotolerans is proposed. The type strain is PB1(T) (DSM 26001(T) =LMG 27282(T)).
