Abstract
Seaweed oligosaccharides possess great bioactivities. However, different microbial strains are required to degrade multiple polysaccharides due to their limited biodegradability, thereby increasing the cost and complexity of production. Shewanella sp. WPAGA9 was isolated from deep-sea sediments in this study. According to the genomic and biochemical analyses, the extracellular fermentation broth of WPAGA9 had versatile degradation abilities for three typical seaweed polysaccharides including agar, carrageenan, and alginate. The maximum enzyme activities of the extracellular fermentation broth of WPAGA9 were 71.63, 76.4, and 735.13 U/ml for the degradation of agar, alginate, and carrageenan, respectively. Moreover, multiple seaweed oligosaccharides can be produced by the extracellular fermentation broth of WPAGA9 under similar optimum conditions. Therefore, WPAGA9 can simultaneously degrade three types of seaweed polysaccharides under similar conditions, thereby greatly reducing the production cost of seaweed oligosaccharides. This finding indicates that Shewanella sp. WPAGA9 is an ideal biochemical tool for producing multiple active seaweed oligosaccharides at low costs and is also an important participant in the carbon cycle process of the deep-sea environment.

Abstract
Bacteria can establish beneficial interactions with plants by acting as growth promoters and enhancing stress tolerance during plant interactions. Likewise, bacteria can develop multispecies communities where multiple interactions are possible. In this work, we assessed the physiological effects of three bacteria isolated from an arid environment (Bacillus niacini, Bacillus megaterium, and Moraxella osloensis) applied as single species or as a consortium on oregano (Origanum vulgare L.) plants. Moreover, we assessed the quorum-sensing (QS) signaling activity to determine the molecular communication between plant-growth-promoting bacteria. The plant inoculation with B. megaterium showed a positive effect on morphometric and physiologic parameters. However, no synergistic effects were observed when a bacterial consortium was inoculated. Likewise, activation of QS signaling in biofilm assays was observed only for interspecies interaction within the Bacillus genus, not for either interaction with M. osloensis. These results suggest a neutral or antagonistic interaction for interspecific bacterial biofilm establishment, as well as for the interaction with oregano plants when bacteria were inoculated in a consortium. In conclusion, we were able to determine that the bacterial interactions are not always positive or synergistic, but they also might be neutral or antagonistic.

Abstract
Staphylococcus sciuri is a bacterial pathogen associated with infections in animals and humans, and represents a reservoir for the mecA gene encoding methicillin-resistance in staphylococci. No S. sciuri siphophages were known. Here the identification and characterization of two temperate S. sciuri phages from the Siphoviridae family designated ϕ575 and ϕ879 are presented. The phages have icosahedral heads and flexible noncontractile tails that end with a tail spike. The genomes of the phages are 42,160 and 41,448 bp long and encode 58 and 55 ORFs, respectively, arranged in functional modules. Their head-tail morphogenesis modules are similar to those of Staphylococcus aureus ϕ13-like serogroup F phages, suggesting their common evolutionary origin. The genome of phage ϕ575 harbours genes for staphylokinase and phospholipase that might enhance the virulence of the bacterial hosts. In addition both of the phages package a homologue of the mecA gene, which is a requirement for its lateral transfer. Phage ϕ879 transduces tetracycline and aminoglycoside pSTS7-like resistance plasmids from its host to other S. sciuri strains and to S. aureus. Furthermore, both of the phages efficiently adsorb to numerous staphylococcal species, indicating that they may contribute to interspecies horizontal gene transfer.

MARINE BIOTECHNOLOGY (NEW YORK, N.Y.) 2017; 19:116-124.

Abstract
Microbulbifer mangrovi strain DD-13T is a novel-type species isolated from the mangroves of Goa, India. The draft genome sequence of strain DD-13 comprised 4,528,106 bp with G+C content of 57.15%. Out of 3479 open reading frames, functions for 3488 protein coding sequences were predicted on the basis of similarity with the cluster of orthologous groups. In addition to protein coding sequences, 34 tRNA genes and 3 rRNA genes were detected. Analysis of nucleotide sequence of predicted gene using a Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes (CAZymes) Analysis Toolkit indicates that strain DD-13 encodes a large set of CAZymes including 255 glycoside hydrolases, 76 carbohydrate esterases, 17 polysaccharide lyases, and 113 carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs). Many genes from strain DD-13 were annotated as carbohydrases specific for degradation of agar, alginate, carrageenan, chitin, xylan, pullulan, cellulose, starch, β-glucan, pectin, etc. Some of polysaccharide-degrading genes were highly modular and were appended at least with one CBM indicating the versatility of strain DD-13 to degrade complex polysaccharides. The cell growth of strain DD-13 was validated using pure polysaccharides such as agarose or alginate as carbon source as well as by using red and brown seaweed powder as substrate. The homologous carbohydrase produced by strain DD-13 during growth degraded the polysaccharide, ensuring the production of metabolizable reducing sugars. Additionally, several other polysaccharides such as carrageenan, xylan, pullulan, pectin, starch, and carboxymethyl cellulose were also corroborated as growth substrate for strain DD-13 and were associated with concomitant production of homologous carbohydrase.

Abstract
A hyaluronate lyase (BniHL) was purified to homogeneity from a culture of a deep-sea Bacillus niacin strain JAM F8. The molecular mass of purified BniHL was approximately 120 kDa. The purified enzyme degraded hyaluronan as well as chondroitin sulfates A and C by a β-elimination mechanism. The optimal pH and temperature were around pH 6 and 45 °C for hyaluronan degradation. The enzyme required optimally 2, 50, and 100 mM calcium ions for degradation of hyaluronan, chondroitin sulfate C, and chondroitin sulfate A, respectively. Calcium ions slightly increased the thermal stability of the enzyme. In a genome analysis of strain JAM F8, a BniHL coding gene was identified on the bases of the molecular mass and N-terminal and internal amino acid sequences. The gene consisted of 3411 nucleotides and coded 1136 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence showed the highest similarity to the hyaluronate lyase of a Bacillus sp. A50 with 89 % identity.
