Pan X, Lin L, Cao X, Jing Z, Dong L, Zhai W. Response of microbial communities and biogeochemical cycling functions to sediment physicochemical properties and microplastic pollution under damming and water diversion projects. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2024; 940:173209. [PMID: 38754501 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2024.173209] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2024] [Revised: 05/05/2024] [Accepted: 05/11/2024] [Indexed: 05/18/2024]
Abstract
Understanding the interactions among flow-sediment, microorganisms, and biogeochemical cycles is crucial for comprehending the ecological response mechanisms of dams and water diversion. This study focused on the spatial patterns of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur (CNPS) cycle functional genes in the water resource for the middle route of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project in China, specifically the Danjiangkou Reservoir (comprising the Han and Dan reservoirs). The investigation incorporated sediment physicochemical properties and microplastic pollution. Numerous microbial species were identified, revealing that microbial communities demonstrated sensitivity to changes in sedimentary mud content. The communities exhibited greater β diversity due to finer sediment particles in the Han Reservoir (HR), whereas in the Dan Reservoir (DR), despite having higher sediment nutrient content and MPs pollution, did not display this pattern. Regarding the composition and structure of microbial communities, the study highlighted that sediment N and P content had a more significant influence compared to particle size and MPs. The quantitative microbial element cycling (QMEC) results confirmed the presence of extensive chemolithotrophic microbes and strong nitrogen cycle activity stemming from long-term water storage and diversion operations. The denitrification intensity in the HR surpassed that of the DR. Notably, near the pre-dam area, biological nitrogen fixation, phosphorus removal, and sulfur reduction exhibited noticeable increases. Dam construction refined sediment, fostering the growth of different biogeochemical cycling bacteria and increasing the abundance of CNPS cycling genes. Furthermore, the presence of MPs exhibited a positive correlation with S cycling genes and a negative correlation with C and N cycling genes. These findings suggest that variations in flow-sediment dynamics and MPs pollution have significant impact the biogeochemical cycle of the reservoir.

ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2024; 351:124042. [PMID: 38679128 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2024.124042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2023] [Revised: 04/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/22/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024]
Abstract
Chlorinated hydrocarbons (CHs) pose significant health risks due to their suspected carcinogenicity, necessitating urgent remediation efforts. While the combination of zero-valent iron (Fe0) and microbial action shows promise in mitigating CH contamination, field studies on this approach are scarce. We devised a novel three-layer permeable reactive barrier (PRB) material incorporating Fe0 and coconut shell biochar, effectively implemented at a typical CH-contaminated site. Field monitoring data revealed conducive conditions for reductive dechlorination of CHs, characterized by low oxygen levels and a relatively neutral pH in the groundwater. The engineered PRB material consistently released organic carbon and iron, fostering the proliferation of CH-dechlorinating bacteria. Over a 250-day operational period, the pilot-scale PRB demonstrated remarkable efficacy in CH removal, achieving removal efficiencies ranging from 21.9% to 99.6% for various CH compounds. Initially, CHs were predominantly eliminated through adsorption and iron-mediated reductive dechlorination. However, microbial reductive dechlorination emerged as the predominant mechanism for sustained and long-term CHs removal. These findings underscore the economic viability and effectiveness of our approach in treating CH-contaminated groundwater, offering promising prospects for broader application in environmental remediation efforts.

Abstract
Paddlefish has high economic and ecological value. In this study, microbial diversity and community structure in intestine, stomach, and mouth of paddlefish were detected using high-throughput sequencing. The results showed that the diversity and richness indices decreased along the digestive tract, and significantly lower proportion of those were observed in intestine. Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes and Proteobacteria were the dominant phyla. In top 10 phyla, there was no significant difference in mouth and stomach. But compared with intestine, there were significant differences in 8 of the 10 phyla, and Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes increased significantly, while Proteobacteria decreased significantly. There was no dominant genus in mouth and stomach, but Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1 and uncultured_bacterium_o_Bacteroidales was predominant in intestine. In conclusion, the species and abundance of microbiota in the mouth and stomach of paddlefish were mostly the same, but significantly different from those in intestine. Moreover, there was enrichment of the dominant bacteria in intestine.

Effects of antimicrobial peptides from dietary Hermetia illucens larvae on the growth, immunity, gene expression, intestinal microbiota and resistance to Aeromonas hydrophila of juvenile red claw crayfish (Cherax quadricarinatus). FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2024; 147:109437.

Abstract
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), which are widely present in animals and plants, have a broad distribution, strong broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, low likelihood of developing drug resistance, high thermal stability and antiviral properties. The present study investigated the effects of adding AMPs from Hermetia illucens larvae on the growth performance, muscle composition, antioxidant capacity, immune response, gene expression, antibacterial ability and intestinal microbiota of Cherax quadricarinatus (red claw crayfish). Five experimental diets were prepared by adding 50 (M1), 100 (M2), 150 (M3) and 200 (M4) mg/kg of crude AMP extract from H. illucens larvae to the basal diet feed, which was also used as the control (M0). After an eight-week feeding experiment, it was discovered that the addition of 100-150 mg/kg of H. illucens larvae AMPs to the feed significantly improved the weight gain rate and specific growth rate of C. quadricarinatus. Furthermore, the addition of H. illucens larvae AMPs to the feed had no significant effect on the moisture content, crude protein, crude fat and ash content of the C. quadricarinatus muscle. The addition of 100-150 mg/kg of H. illucens larvae AMPs in the feed also increased the antioxidant capacity, nonspecific immune enzyme activity and related gene expression levels in C. quadricarinatus, thereby enhancing their antioxidant capacity and immune function. The H. illucens larvae AMPs improved the structure and composition of the intestinal microbiota of C. quadricarinatus, increasing the microbial community diversity of the crayfish gut. Finally, the addition of 100-150 mg/kg of H. illucens larvae AMPs in the feed enhanced the resistance of C. quadricarinatus against Aeromonas hydrophila, improving the survival rate of the crayfish. Based on the aforementioned findings, it is recommended that H. illucens larvae AMPs be incorporated into the C. quadricarinatus feed at a concentration of 100-150 mg/kg.

Association between the salinity level with miscarriage and unintended pregnancy in Bangladesh: Impact of salinity level on miscarriage and unintended pregnancy in Bangladesh. Heliyon 2024; 10:e23858. [PMID: 38192867 PMCID: PMC10772722 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e23858] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2023] [Revised: 12/13/2023] [Accepted: 12/14/2023] [Indexed: 01/10/2024] Open
Abstract
Miscarriage is a significant public health concern worldwide, particularly in developing nations like Bangladesh. Moreover, people in coastal areas are more affected by miscarriage as compared to other areas. Increasing sea levels and salinity is the main reason for this discrepancy. This study aimed to investigate the association between different salinity levels (S1, S2, S3, S4, and S5) and miscarriage and unintended pregnancy. The outcome variables are pregnancy-related outcomes (miscarriage, unintended pregnancy), and the independent variables are different salinity levels. A frequency table and correlation analysis were done to find the descriptive scenarios of miscarriage, unintended pregnancy, and salinity levels. We found 621 miscarriage patients and 2271 unintended pregnant patients in our study. Furthermore, the Poisson regression model was used to observe the incidence of miscarriage and unintended pregnancy for different salinity levels. A higher amount of miscarriage and unintended pregnancy rate was found in Dhaka and Khulna, while these rates were lower in Barisal and Chittagong. However, the salinity levels were highest in Barisal and Khulna. Both miscarriage and unintended pregnancy are highly and negatively correlated with salinity levels. The Poisson regression model shows that the salinity levels s1-s5 are strongly associated with miscarriage. Lower and moderate levels of salinity are strongly associated with miscarriage than higher levels of salinity. Again, the average number of miscarriages decreases with the salinity levels. Likewise, unintended pregnancy was also negatively associated with salinity levels. However, it only reported a significant association with lower and moderate salinity levels, and higher salinity levels did not affect unintended pregnancy. Taking initiatives for raising awareness from government and non-government organizations, setting up deep tube water pumps extensively, and properly treating coastal areas women during pregnancy would be the ideal next step to reduce the miscarriage and unintended pregnancy rate in coastal zones in Bangladesh.

Abstract
A comprehensive profiling of microbial diversity is essential to understand the ecosystem functions. Universal primer sets such as the 515Y/926R could amplify a part of 16S and 18S rRNA and infer the diversity of prokaryotes and eukaryotes. However, the analyses of mixed sequencing data pose a bioinformatics challenge; the 16S and 18S rRNA sequences need to be separated first and analysed individually/independently due to variations in the amplicon length. This study describes an alternative strategy, a merging and concatenation workflow, to analyse the mixed amplicon data without separating the 16S and 18S rRNA sequences. The workflow was tested with 24 mock community (MC) samples, and the analyses resolved the composition of prokaryotes and eukaryotes adequately. In addition, there was a strong correlation (cor = 0.950; P-value = 4.754e-10) between the observed and expected abundances in the MC samples, which suggests that the computational approach could infer the microbial proportions accurately. Further, 18 samples collected from the Sundarbans mangrove region were analysed as a case study. The analyses identified Proteobacteria, Bacteroidota, Actinobacteriota, Cyanobacteria, and Crenarchaeota as dominant bacterial phyla and eukaryotic divisions such as Metazoa, Gyrista, Cryptophyta, Chlorophyta, and Dinoflagellata were found to be dominant in the samples. Thus, the results support the applicability of the method in environmental microbiome research. The merging and concatenation workflow presented here requires considerably less computational resources and uses widely/commonly used bioinformatics packages, saving researchers analyses time (for equivalent sample numbers, compared to the conventional approach) required to infer the diversity of major microbial domains from mixed amplicon data at comparable accuracy.

Abstract
Salinity is an important environmental factor in microbial ecology for affecting the microbial communities in diverse environments. Understanding the salinity adaptation mechanisms of a microbial community is a significant issue, while most previous studies only covered a narrow salinity range. Here, variations in seawater prokaryotic communities during the whole salt drying progression (salinity from 3% to 25%) were investigated. According to high-throughput sequencing results, the diversity, composition, and function of seawater prokaryotic communities varied significantly along the salinity gradient, expressing as decreased diversity, enrichment of some halophilic archaea, and powerful nitrate reduction in samples with high salt concentrations. More importantly, a sudden and dramatic alteration of prokaryotic communities was observed when salinity reached 16%, which was recognized as the change point. Combined with the results of network analysis, we found the increasing of complexity but decreasing of stability in prokaryotic communities when salinity exceeded the change point. Moreover, prokaryotic communities became more deterministic when salinity exceeded the change point due to the niche adaptation of halophilic species. Our study showed that substantial variations in seawater prokaryotic communities along an extremely wide salinity gradient, and also explored the underlying mechanisms regulating these changes.

Abstract
With its contribution to nutrition, development, and disease resistance, gut microbiome has been recognized as a crucial component of the animal's health and well-being. Microbiome in the gastrointestinal tract constantly interacts with the host animal's immune systems as part of the normal function of the intestines. Interactions between the microbiome and the immune system are complex and dynamic, with the microbiome shaping immune development and function. In contrast, the immune system modulates the composition and activity of the microbiome. In shrimp, as with all other aquatic animals, the interaction between the microbiome and the animals occurs at the early developmental stages. This early interaction is likely essential to the development of immune responses of the animal as well as many key physiological developments that further contribute to the health of shrimp. This review provides background knowledge on the early developmental stage of shrimp and its microbiome, examines the interaction between the microbiome and the immune system in the early life stage of shrimp, and discusses potential pitfalls and challenges associated with microbiome research. Understanding the interaction between the microbiome and shrimp immune system at this crucial developmental stage could have the potential to aid in the establishment of a healthy microbiome, improve shrimp survival, and provide ways to shape the microbiome with feed supplements or other strategies.

Abstract
Wastewater from shrimp farming is rich in organic material, solids, and nutrients, which cause a series of environmental problems when released into the environment. Currently, for the removal of nitrogen compounds from wastewater, among the most studied methods is biological denitrification. The objective of this study was to evaluate the operational parameters for the development of a more sustainable technology for the removal of nitrogen compounds from shrimp farm wastewater, using Bambusa tuldoides (a species of bamboo) as a source of carbon and a material conducive to the development of selected denitrifying bacteria. To optimize the process, biological denitrification assays were performed varying the following parameters: bamboo length (cm), pH, temperature, and stoichiometric proportions of C and N. The operational stability of the process with the reuse of the bamboo biomass was also evaluated. Cronobacter sakazakii and Bacillus cereus were identified as denitrifying microorganisms present in reactor with bamboo biomass. The best operational conditions observed were pH 6 to 7 and temperature 30 to 35 °C, and the addition of an external carbon source was not necessary for the denitrification process to occur efficiently. Under these conditions, biological denitrification occurred with an average efficiency above 90% based on the removal of the nitrogen contaminants evaluated (NO3-N and NO2-N). Regarding operational stability, 8 cycles were performed using the same source of carbon without reducing the efficiency of the process.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Artificial habitats can allow many fish to flock together and interact and have been widely used to restore and protect fishery resources. The piece of research intends to elucidate the relationship of microbial communities between tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus) intestines and artificial fishery habitats (water and sediments). Hence, 16 S rDNA sequencing technology was used to study the bacterial communities from intestines, water, and sediments. RESULTS The results showed that the tilapia intestines had the lowest richness of Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs) and the lowest diversity of the bacterial community compared to water and sediments. The intestine, water, and sediment microbial communities shared many OTUs. Overall, 663 shared OTUs were identified from the tilapia intestines (76.20%), the surrounding water (71.14%), and sediment (56.86%) in artificial habitats. However, there were unique OTUs that were detected in different sample types. There were 81, 77 and 112 unique OTUs observed in tilapia intestines, the surrounding water and sediment, respectively. Proteobacteria, Cyanobacteria, Actinobacteria, Firmicutes, Fusobacteria, and Bacteroidetes were the most common and dominant bacterial phyla between the tilapia intestines and habitats. In the two groups, the microbial communities were similar in the taxonomic composition but different in the abundance of bacterial phyla. Interestingly, Firmicutes increased, while Fusobacteria decreased in artificial habitats. These findings indicated that the artificial habitats had fewer effects on the water environment and indicated that the mode of artificial habitats could have an effect on the enriched bacteria in the tilapia intestines. CONCLUSIONS This study analysed the bacterial communities of artificial habitats from the intestines, water, and sediments, which can explain the relationship between the tilapia intestines and habitats and strengthen the value of ecological services provided by artificial habitats.

Abstract
IntroductionUnderstanding microbial gradual shifts along species replacement can help elucidate the mechanisms driving secondary succession, and predict microbial responses to changing environments. However, how climate-induced species replacement alters microbial processes, and whether microbial shifts follow predictable assembly trajectories remain unclear.MethodsUsing space-for-time substitution approach, we studied shifts in bacterial and fungal communities in the succession from Leptodermis oblonga to Vitex negundo var. heterophylla shrubland in Taihang Mountain.Results and DiscussionSpecies replacement, induced by climate related environmental change, significantly increased the above-ground biomass of shrublands, and TP and TK contents in topsoil. The succession from L. oblonga to V. negundo var. heterophylla communities resulted in the gradually replacement of cold-tolerant microbes with warm-affinity ones, and alterations of microbial communities involved in soil biogeochemical processes. Soil and plant variables, such as above-ground biomass, soil pH, total phosphorus, and total potassium, well explained the variations in microbial communities, indicating that the coordinated changes in plant communities and soil properties during secondary succession caused accompanied shifts in microbial diversity and composition.

Abstract
Large amounts of insecticides bring selection pressure and then develop insecticide resistance in Aedes albopictus. This study demonstrated for the first time the effect of pyrethroid exposure on the internal microbiota in Ae. albopictus. 36, 48, 57 strains of virgin adult Ae. albopictus were exposed to the pyrethroids deltamethrin (Dme group), β-cypermethrin (Bcy group), and cis-permethrin (Cper group), respectively, with n-hexane exposure (Hex group) as the controls (n = 36). The internal microbiota community and functions were analyzed based on the metagenomic analysis. The analysis of similarity (ANOSIM) results showed that the Hex/Bcy (p = 0.001), Hex/Cper (p = 0.006), Hex/Dme (p = 0.001) groups were well separated, and the internal microbes of Ae. albopictus vary in the composition and functions depending on the type of pyrethroid insecticide they are applied. Four short chain fatty acid-producing genera, Butyricimonas, Prevotellaceae, Anaerococcus, Pseudorhodobacter were specifically absent in the pyrethroid-exposed mosquitoes. Morganella and Streptomyces were significantly enriched in cis-permethrin-exposed mosquitoes. Wolbachia and Chryseobacterium showed significant enrichment in β-cypermethrin-exposed mosquitoes. Pseudomonas was significantly abundant in deltamethrin-exposed mosquitoes. The significant proliferation of these bacteria may be closely related to insecticide metabolism. Our study recapitulated a specifically enhanced metabolic networks relevant to the exposure to cis-permethrin and β-cypermethrin, respectively. Benzaldehyde dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.28), key enzyme in aromatic compounds metabolism, was detected enhanced in cis-permethrin and β-cypermethrin exposed mosquitoes. The internal microbiota metabolism of aromatic compounds may be important influencing factors for pyrethroid resistance. Future work will be needed to elucidate the specific mechanisms by which mosquito microbiota influences host resistance and vector ability.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To reflect the potential and intrinsic association among microbiota structure, antibiotic resistance genes distribution and biological toxicity of landfill-leachate according to seasonal change, and accurately assess the potential threat of leachate to the surrounding environment. METHODS On the basis of the leachate water quality monitoring data from January to December 2020, principal component analysis (PCA) was used to identify the main pollutants in the leachate; Vibrio fischeri luminescence inhibition test was used to detect the comprehensive biotoxicity of the leachate; 16S rDNA amplicon sequencing was used for leachate microbiota. q-PCR was used to detect the class 1 integron (intI1), and eight antibiotic resistance genes (sul1, sul2, tetA, tetB, tetM, tetQ, mefA, and mexF); Canonical correspondence (CCA) analysis was carried out for the association analysis. RESULT The biotoxicity of leachate in the second quarter was the highest. The dominant phylum of leachate microbiota from 1st quarters to 4th quarters was Proteobacteria (94.97 %, 85.43 %, 88.20 %, and 84.11 %), and the dominant genera were Thiomonas (60.41 %, 26.83 %, 25.66 %, and 30.51 %), Pseudomonas (5.89 %, 1.86 %, 0.68 %, and 4.72 %), Desulfurella (8.52 %, 0.57 %, 3.81 %, and 8.25 %), and Acidithiobacillus (4.71 %, 0.69 %, 0.87 %, and 5.91 %); Nitrospirillum was negatively correlated with chemical oxygen demand (COD) (R=-0.561, P = 0.008) and five-day biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5) (R=-0.591, P = 0.005); Limnohabitans was positively correlated with pH (R=0.444, P = 0.044). Four AR genes (sul1, sul2,tetM, and tetQ) were detected in all the samples, while the second quarter had the highest concentration of sul1(6.31 ± 0.49 lg copies/ng DNA), tetM (3.01 ± 1.38 lg copies/ng DNA) and tetQ (3.64 ± 0.90 lg copies/ng DNA). CONCLUSION As the mature landfill, the quality of this leachate met the pollution control standards for domestic waste landfills. Thiomycetes, Pseudomonas, Desulfurization, and Thiopterus acidophyllum constitute the dominant microbiota. However, leachate in the second quarter had more serious contamination, the higher biotoxicity, higher concentration of AR genes, together with higher microbiota richness and diversity, which deserved more attention for the potential threat to the surrounding environment.

Abstract
Microbial remediation, especially the application of probiotics, has recently gained popularity in improving water quality and maintaining aquatic animal health. The efficacy and mechanism of mixed Bacillus for improvement of water quality and its effects on aquatic microbial community structure remain unknown. To elucidate these issues, we applied two groups of mixed Bacillus (Bacillus megaterium and Bacillus subtilis (A0 + BS) and Bacillus megaterium and Bacillus coagulans (A0 + BC)) to the aquaculture system of Crucian carp. Our results showed that the improvement effect of mixed Bacillus A0 + BS on water quality was better than that of A0 + BC, and the NH4+-N, NO2--N, NO3--N, and total phosphorus (TP) concentrations were reduced by 46.3%, 76.3%, 35.6%, and 80.3%, respectively. In addition, both groups of mixed Bacillus increased the diversity of the bacterial community and decreased the diversity of the fungal community. Microbial community analysis showed that mixed Bacillus A0 + BS increased the relative abundance of bacteria related with nitrogen and phosphorus removal, such as Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Comamonas, and Stenotrophomonas, but decreased the relative abundance of pathogenic bacteria (Acinetobacter and Pseudomonas) and fungi (Epicoccum and Fusarium). Redundancy analysis showed that NH4+-N, NO2--N, and TP were the primary environmental factors affecting the microbial community in aquaculture water. PICRUST analysis indicated that all functional pathways in the A0 + BS group were richer than those in other groups. These results indicated that mixed Bacillus A0 + BS addition produced good results in reducing nitrogenous and phosphorus compounds and shaped a favorable microbial community structure to further improve water quality.

Abstract
Chemical oxygen demand to nitrogen (COD/N) and nitrogen to phosphorus (N/P) ratios have distinct effects on bacterial community structure and interactions. However, how organic to nutrient imbalances affect the structure of freshwater bacterial assemblages in restored wetlands remains poorly understood. Here, the composition and dominant taxa of bacterial assemblages in four wetlands [low COD/N and high N/P (LH), low COD/N and low N/P (LL), high COD/N and high N/P (HH), and high COD/N and low N/P (HL)] were investigated. A total of 7,709 operational taxonomic units were identified by high throughput sequencing, and Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, and Cyanobacteria were the most abundant phyla in the restored wetlands. High COD/N significantly increased bacterial diversity and was negatively correlated with N/P (R2 = 0.128; p = 0.039), and the observed richness (Sobs) indices ranged from 860.77 to 1314.66. The corresponding Chao1 and phylogenetic diversity (PD) values ranged from 1533.42 to 2524.56 and 127.95 to 184.63. Bacterial beta diversity was negatively related to COD/N (R2 = 0.258; p < 0.001). The distribution of bacterial assemblages was mostly driven by variations in ammonia nitrogen (NH4+-N, p < 0.01) and electrical conductivity (EC, p < 0.01), which collectively explained more than 80% of the variation in bacterial assemblages. However, the dominant taxa Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Cyanobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Verrucomicrobia, Planctomycetes, Chloroflexi, and Deinococcus-Thermus were obviously affected by variation in COD/N and N/P (p < 0.05). The highest node and edge numbers and average degree were observed in the LH group. The co-occurrence networkindicated that LH promoted bacterial network compactness and bacterial interaction consolidation. The relationships between organic to nutrient imbalances and bacterial assemblages may provide a theoretical basis for the empirical management of wetland ecosystems.

Abstract
Biofloc technology (BFT) has recently gained considerable attention as a sustainable method in shrimp aquaculture. In a successful BFT system, microbial communities are considered a crucial component in their ability to both improve water quality and control microbial pathogens. Yet, bacterioplankton diversity in rearing water and how bacterioplankton community composition changes with shrimp growth are rarely documented. In this study, the Pacific white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei was cultivated in a greenhouse-enclosed BFT system. Rearing water samples were collected on a weekly basis for 5 months (152 days) and water quality variables such as physicochemical parameters and inorganic nutrients were monitored. In parallel, 16S rRNA gene pyrosequencing was employed to investigate the temporal patterns of rearing-water microbiota. The productivity, survival rate, and feed conversion ratio were 3.2-4.4 kg/m3, 74%-89%, and 1.2-1.3, respectively, representing successful super-intensive cultures. The metataxonomic results indicated a highly dynamic bacterioplankton community, with two major shifts over the culture. Members of the phylum Planctomycetes dominated in rearing water during the early stages, while Actinobacteria dominated during the middle stages, and Chloroflexi and TM7 dominated during the late stages of culture. The bacterioplankton community fluctuated more in the beginning but stabilized as the culture progressed. Intriguingly, we observed that certain bacterioplankton groups dominated in a culture-stage-specific manner; these groups include Rhodobacteraceae, Flavobacteriaceae, Actinobacteria, and Chloroflexi, which either contribute to water quality regulation or possess probiotic potential. Altogether, our results indicate that an operationally successful BFT-based aquaculture system favors the growth and dynamics of specific microbial communities in rearing water. Our study expands the scientific understanding of the practical utilization of microbes in sustainable aquaculture. A thorough understanding of rearing-water microbiota and factors influencing their dynamics will help to establish effective management strategies.

Bacterial diversity and its functions are essential to soil health. N fertilization changes bacterial communities and interferes with the soil biogeochemical N cycle. In this study, bacterial community and soil physicochemical properties were studied in 2018 after applying N fertilizers (0, 52.5, 105, 157.5, and 210 kg N ha−1) for a long (2003–2018) and a short (2003–2004) duration in a wheat field on the Loess Plateau of China. Soil bacteria were determined using 16S rRNA Illumina-MiSeq®, and the prediction function was analyzed through PICRUSt. The study showed that N fertilizer significantly changed the diversity and abundance of bacterial communities. The phyla Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Acidobacteria, and Chloroflexi were most abundant, accounting for 74–80% of the bacterial community abundance. The optimum rates of N fertilizer application (N105) maintain soil health by promoting soil microbial diversity and abundance. The bacterial population abundance was higher after short-term N application than after N application for a long duration and lowest with the high N-fertilizer treatment (N210). High N enrichment led to more heterotrophic N-fixing microorganisms (Alphaproteobacteria), in which metabolism and genetic information processing dominated, while cellular processes, genetic information processing, metabolism, and organismal systems were the main functional categories under low N. The phyla Gemmatimonadetes, Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, and Chloroflexi were the key bacteria in the co-occurrence network. The genus Saccharimonadales of the superphylum Patescibacteria has a more significant impact under low N treatment. Long-term N fertilization affected the soil pH, NO3-N, and other physicochemical properties, and soil NO3-N was the highest indicator, contributing 81% of the bacterial community function under different N fertilizer treatments.

Abstract
Revealing the responses of rare and abundant bacteria to environmental change is crucial for understanding microbial community assembly and ecosystem function. However, both the environmental adaptability and the ecological assembly processes exhibited by rare and abundant soil bacteria remain poorly understood. Here we investigated the assembly processes of rare and abundant bacteria along a chronosequence of a 35-year reforestation succession (8, 17, and 35 years), particularly with regard to their environmental adaptations. Compared to the abundant taxa, the phylogenetic clustering of rare taxa was tighter but their environmental breadth wider. Homogeneous selection (65.8%) belonging to deterministic processes dominated the rare bacterial assembly, whereas homogenizing dispersal and undominated process (57.9%) belonging to stochastic processes governed the abundant taxa. Neutral processes had a significant impact on shaping the rare taxa compared to the abundant taxa. Rare taxa were environmentally less constrained than abundant taxa. Soil EC was the major determinant factor for the assembly processes of both rare and abundant taxa. Ecological assembly processes showed a significant negative correlation with rare bacterial functional redundancies, while they had a significant positive correlation with the abundant taxa. Microbial network modularity further demonstrated that rare taxa developed stronger environmental adaptation strategies than their abundant counterparts. Our study significantly advances the knowledge of the environmental adaptability of rare and abundant bacteria and emphasizes their key role in reforestation ecological succession soils.

ENVIRONMENTAL MICROBIOME 2022; 17:27. [PMID: 35599327 PMCID: PMC9124410 DOI: 10.1186/s40793-022-00422-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2022] [Accepted: 05/13/2022] [Indexed: 05/31/2023]
Abstract
While the rice-crayfish culture (RCFP) model, an important aquaculture model in Asia, is generally considered a sustainable model, its sustainability in terms of microbial community profiles has not been evaluated. In this study, multi-kingdom analyses of microbiome profiles (i.e., bacteria, archaea, viruses, and eukaryotes) were performed using environmental (i.e., water and sediment) and animal gut (i.e., crayfish and crab gut) microbial samples from the RCFP and other aquaculture models, including the crab-crayfish co-culture, crayfish culture, and crab culture models, to evaluate the sustainability of the RCFP systematically. Results showed that RCFP samples are enriched with a distinct set of microbes, including Shewanella, Ferroplasma, Leishmania, and Siphoviridae, when compared with other aquaculture models. Additionally, most microbes in the RCFP samples, especially microbes from different kingdoms, were densely and positively connected, which indicates their robustness against environmental stress. Whereas microbes in different aquaculture models demonstrated moderate levels of horizontal gene transfer (HGT) across kingdoms, the RCFP showed relatively lower frequencies of HGT events, especially those involving antibiotic resistance genes. Finally, environmental factors, including pH, oxidation-reduction potential, temperature, and total nitrogen, contributed profoundly to shaping the microbial communities in these aquaculture models. Interestingly, compared with other models, the microbial communities of the RCFP model were less influenced by these environmental factors, which suggests that microbes in the latter have stronger ability to resist environmental stress. The findings collectively reflect the unique multi-kingdom microbial patterns of the RCFP model and suggest that this model is a sustainable model from the perspective of microbiome profiles.

Abstract
Supplementing exogenous carbon sources is a practical approach to improving shrimp health by manipulating the microbial communities of aquaculture systems. However, little is known about the microbiological processes and mechanisms of these systems. Here, the effects of glucose addition on shrimp growth performance and bacterial communities of the rearing water and the shrimp gut were investigated to address this knowledge gap. The results showed that glucose addition significantly improved the growth and survival of shrimp. Although the α-diversity indices of both bacterioplankton communities and gut microbiota were significantly decreased by adding glucose, both bacterial communities exhibited divergent response patterns to glucose addition. Glucose addition induced a dispersive bacterioplankton community but a more stable gut bacterial community. Bacterial taxa belonging to Ruegeria were significantly enriched by glucose in the guts, especially the operational taxonomic unit 2575 (OTU2575), which showed the highest relative importance to the survival rate and individual weight of shrimp, with the values of 43.8 and 40.6%, respectively. In addition, glucose addition increased the complexity of interspecies interactions within gut bacterial communities and the network nodes from Rhodobacteraceae accounted for higher proportions and linked more with the nodes from other taxa in the glucose addition group than that in control. These findings suggest that glucose addition may provide a more stable gut microbiota for shrimp by increasing the abundance of certain bacterial taxa, such as Ruegeria.

Abstract
The rice-crayfish (RC) integrated breeding model is an important and special agricultural ecosystem that provides a unique ecological environment for exploring the microbial diversity, composition, and functional capacity. To date, little is known about the effect of the breeding model on microbiome assembly and breeding model-specific microbiome composition and the association of the microbiome with water quality and crayfish growth. In the present study, we assessed the taxonomic shifts in gut and water microbiomes and their associations with water quality and crayfish growth in the RC and crayfish monoculture (CM) breeding models across six time points of rice growth, including seedling (a), tillering and jointing (b), blooming (c), filling (d), fruiting (e), and rotting of rice residues (f). Dominant bacterial phyla, such as Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, and Firmicutes, were detected in both gut and water microbiomes across breeding models. Notably, the diversity and structure of the gut and water microbiomes significantly (P < 0.001) differed between the RC and CM models, with higher microbial diversity being noted in the RC model than in the CM model. The taxa enriched in the RC model included Bacillus sp., Streptomyces sp., Lactobacillus sp., Prevotella sp., Rhodobacter sp., Bifidobacterium sp., Akkermansia sp., and Lactococcus sp., some of which are potentially beneficial to animals. However, opportunistic pathogens, such as Citrobacter sp. and Aeromonas sp., were depleted in the RC model. Furthermore, in the RC model, the enriched taxa that formed complex cooccurrence networks showed a significant positive correlation with water quality and crayfish growth, whereas the depleted taxa showed a significant negative correlation with water quality and crayfish growth. These results suggest that the RC model has a better microbiome composition and that RC model-specific microbes could play important roles in improving crayfish growth and water quality. IMPORTANCE The present study comprehensively compared two different breeding models in terms of their microbiome composition and the associations of the microbiomes with crayfish growth and water quality. RC model-specific microbiome composition was identified; these microbes were found to have a positive association with water quality and crayfish growth. These results provide valuable information for guiding microbial isolation and culture and for potentially harnessing the power of the microbiome to improve crayfish production and health and water quality.

Abstract
Pond aquaculture has become the most important and broadest breeding model in China, and an extremely important source of aquatic products, but the potential hazard factors of potential pathogenic bacteria (PPB), antibiotic resistance bacteria (ARB), and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in aquaculture environment are largely invisible. In the present study, the bacterial communities in the larvae, juvenile, rearing, and harvesting culture stages of great grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus) ponds were investigated and the structure of microbial flora analysis showed that the larvae culture stage has the highest abundance and the most dominant phyla were Proteobacteria (27.8%). A total of 123 significant Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway annotations and the relative abundance of nine bacterial phenotypes implied that the larvae culture stage had the most abundance of pathogenic potential and mobile elements. The correlation analyses of environmental factors showed that temperature, stocking density, pH, and transparency showed the significant impacts on both the distribution of microbiome and the PPB. More importantly, a total of 40 ARB were identified, and 16 ARGs have the detection rates of 100%, which revealed that they are widely distributed and highly enriched in the aquaculture production. Notably, this is the first robust report to analyze and understand the PPB, ARB, and ARGs characteristics and dynamic changes in the pond aquaculture.

Abstract
Sediment nitrogen and sulfur cycles are essential biogeochemical processes that regulate the microbial communities of environmental ecosystems, which have closely linked to environment ecological health. However, their functional couplings in anthropogenic aquaculture sedimentary ecosystems remain poorly understood. Here, we explored the sediment functional genes in shrimp culture pond ecosystems (SCPEs) at different culture stages using the GeoChip gene array approach with 16S amplicon sequencing. Dissimilarity analysis showed that the compositions of both functional genes and bacterial communities differed at different phases of shrimp culture with the appearance of temporal distance decay (p < 0.05). During shrimp culture, the abundances of nitrite and sulfite reduction functional genes decreased (p < 0.05), while those of nitrate and sulfate reduction genes were enriched (p < 0.05) in sediments, implying the enrichment of nitrites and sulfites from microbial metabolism. Meanwhile, nitrogen and sulfur reduction genes were found to be linked with carbon degradation and phosphorous metabolism (p < 0.05). The influence pathways of nutrients were demonstrated by structural equation modeling through environmental factors and the bacterial community on the nitrogen and sulfur reduction functions, indicating that the bacterial community response to environmental factors was facilitated by nutrients, and led to the shifts of functional genes (p < 0.05). These results indicate that sediment nitrogen and sulfur reduction functions in SCPEs were coupled, which are interconnected with the SCPEs bacterial community. Our findings will be helpful for understanding biogeochemical cycles in anthropogenic aquaculture ecosystems and promoting sustainable management of sediment environments through the framework of an ecological perspective.

Abstract
The Ojo de Liebre Lagoon is a Marine Protected Area that lies within a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is a critical habitat for important migratory species such as the grey whale and bird species. Unique hypersaline environments, such as the Ojo de Liebre Lagoon, are underexplored in terms of their bacterial and chemical diversity, representing a potential source for new bioactive compounds with pharmacological properties. Actinobacteria are one of the most diverse and prolific taxonomic bacterial groups in terms of marine bioactive compounds. This study aimed to identify the culturable actinobacterial community inhabiting the Lagoon, as well as to test their potential as new sources of anticancer compounds with pharmacological potential. A selective isolation approach focused on spore-forming bacteria from 40 sediment samples generated a culture collection of 64 strains. The 16S rRNA gene analyses identified three phyla in this study, the Actinobacteria, Firmicutes and Proteobacteria, where the phylum Actinobacteria dominated (57%) the microbial community profiles. Within the Actinobacteria, nine different genera were isolated including the Actinomadura, Micromonospora, Nocardiopsis, Plantactinospora and Streptomyces sp. We observed seasonal differences on actinobacteria recovery. For instance, Micromonospora strains were recovered during the four sampling seasons, while Arthrobacter and Pseudokineococcus were only isolated in February 2018, and Blastococcus, Rhodococcus and Streptomyces were uniquely isolated in June 2018. Ethyl acetate crude extracts derived from actinobacterial cultures were generated and screened for cytotoxic activity against six cancer cell lines. Strains showed promising low percentages of viability on lung (H1299), cervical (SiHa), colon (Caco-2) and liver (HepG2) cancer lines. Molecular networking results suggest many of the metabolites produced by these strains are unknown and they might harbour novel chemistry. Our results showed the Ojo de Liebre Lagoon is a novel source for isolating diverse marine actinobacteria which produce promising bioactive compounds for potential biotechnological use as anticancer agents.

Abstract
As large-scale outdoor production cannot be done in complete containment, cultures are (more) open for bacteria, which may affect the productivity and stability of the algae production process. We investigated the bacterial diversity in two indoor reactors and four pilot-scale outdoor reactors for the production of Nannochloropsis sp. CCAP211/78 spanning four months of operation from July to October. Illumina sequencing of 16S rRNA gene amplicons demonstrated that a wide variety of bacteria were present in all reactor types, with predominance of Bacteroidetes and Alphaproteobacteria. Bacterial communities were significantly different between all reactor types (except between the horizontal tubular reactor and the vertical tubular reactor) and also between runs in each reactor. Bacteria common to the majority of samples included one member of the Saprospiraceae family and one of the NS11-12_marine group (both Bacteroidetes). Hierarchical clustering analysis revealed two phases during the cultivation period separated by a major shift in bacterial community composition in the horizontal tubular reactor, the vertical tubular reactor and the raceway pond with a strong decrease of the Saprospiraceae and NS11-12_marine group that initially dominated the bacterial communities. Furthermore, we observed a less consistent pattern of bacterial taxa appearing in different reactors and runs, most of which belonging to the classes Deltaproteobacteria and Flavobacteriia. In addition, canonical correspondence analysis showed that the bacterial community composition was significantly correlated with the nitrate concentration. This study contributes to our understanding of bacterial diversity and composition in different types of outdoor reactors exposed to a range of dynamic biotic and abiotic factors. Key points • Reactor types had significantly different bacterial communities except HT and VT • The inoculum source and physiochemical factors together affect bacterial community • The bacterial family Saprospiraceae is positively correlated to microalgal growth.

Spatio-temporal variation of bacterioplankton community structure in the Pearl River: impacts of artificial fishery habitat and physicochemical factors. BMC Ecol Evol 2022; 22:10. [PMID: 35114951 PMCID: PMC8812236 DOI: 10.1186/s12862-022-01965-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2021] [Accepted: 01/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Artificial fishery habitat has been widely used in fishery resource protection and water habitat restoration. Although the bacterioplankton plays an important ecological role in fisheries ecosystems, the effect of artificial fishery habitat on bacterioplankton is not clear. In this study, high-throughput sequencing based on the 16S rRNA gene was carried out to study the characteristics of bacterioplankton community structure in artificial fishery habitat and to determine the principal environmental factors that shaped the composition, structure and function of bacterioplankton communities in an unfed aquaculture system. Results The results indicated that the most dominant phyla were Proteobacteria (Alphaproteobacteria and Gammaproteobacteria), Actinobacteria, Cyanobacteria, and Bacteroidetes, which accounted for 28.61%, 28.37%, 19.79%, and 10.25% of the total abundance, respectively. The factors that cause the differences in bacterioplankton community were mainly manifested in three aspects, including the diversity of the community, the role of artificial fishery habitat, and the change of environmental factors. The alpha diversity analysis showed that the diversity and richness index of the bacterioplankton communities were the highest in summer, which indicated that the seasonal variation characteristics had a great influence on it. The CCA analysis identified that the dissolved oxygen, temperature, and ammonium salt were the dominant environmental factors in an unfed aquaculture system. The LEfSe analysis founded 37 indicator species in artificial structure areas (AS group), only 9 kinds existing in the control areas of the open-water group (CW group). Meanwhile, the KEGG function prediction analysis showed that the genes which were related to metabolism in group AS were significantly enhanced. Conclusions This study can provide reference value for the effect of artificial habitat on bacterioplankton community and provide fundamental information for the follow-up study of ecological benefits of artificial fishery habitat. It may be contributed to apply artificial fishery habitat in more rivers. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s12862-022-01965-3.

Dietary recombinant human lysozyme improves the growth, intestinal health, immunity and disease resistance of Pacific white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2022; 121:39-52. [PMID: 34983003 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2021.12.052] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2021] [Revised: 12/21/2021] [Accepted: 12/29/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
The present study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary recombinant human lysozyme (RHL) on the growth, immune response, anti-oxidative activity, intestinal morphology, intestinal microflora and disease resistance of shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei. Shrimps with an initial body weight of 2.36 ± 0.02 g were fed diets supplemented with 0 (control group, R0), 0.0025% (R1), 0.005% (R2), 0.01% (R3), 0.02% (R4) and 0.04% (R5) of RHL, respectively. After a 10-week feeding trial, the final body weight, survival rate, weight gain ratio and protein efficiency rate of the shrimps in dietary RHL supplemented groups were significantly higher than that in the control group, while feed conversion ratio was significantly lower (P < 0.05). The total haemocyte count, total anti-oxidative capacity, respiratory burst, activities of phagocytosis, nitric oxide synthase, phenol oxidase and lysozyme in serum were significantly higher in dietary RHL supplemented groups than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Meanwhile, the intestinal pile height and wall thickness were significantly higher in dietary RHL supplemented groups than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Dietary RHL significantly improved the expressions of immune-related genes in gill, such as lipopolysaccharide-β-glucan binding protein, Toll, immune deficiency, heat shock protein 70 and Crustin (P < 0.05). The abundance of proteobacteria and bacteroidetes in intestine was higher, while the abundance of firmicutes and cyanobacteria was lower than those in the control group at the phylum level. In addition, dietary RHL supplementation significantly improved the protective ability of shrimp against V. parahaemolyticus infection (P < 0.05). Based on the broken-line model analysis for weight gain ratio after the feeding trial, the optimal level of dietary RHL supplementation for shrimp was estimated to be 0.006375%.

Metagenomic Insights into the Structure of Microbial Communities Involved in Nitrogen Cycling in Two Integrated Multitrophic Aquaculture (IMTA) Ponds. JOURNAL OF MARINE SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING 2022.

Abstract
The microbial structure and metabolic potential, particularly with regard to nitrogen (N) cycling, in integrated multitrophic aquaculture (IMTA) ponds with shrimp remain unclear. In this study, an analysis of microbial community taxonomic diversity and a metagenomic analysis of N-related genes were performed in a shrimp-crab pond (Penaeus japonicus-Portunus trituberculatus, SC) and a shrimp-crab-clam pond (P. japonicus-P. trituberculatus-Sinonovacula constricta, SCC) to evaluate microbial structure and N transformation capacities in these two shrimp IMTA ponds. The composition of the microbial communities was similar between SC and SCC, but the water and sediments shared few common members in either pond. The relative abundances of N cycling genes were significantly higher in sediment than in water in both SC and SCC, except for assimilatory nitrate reduction genes. The main drivers of the differences in the relative abundances of N cycling genes in SC and SCC were salinity and pH in water and the NO2− and NH4+ contents of pore water in sediment. These results indicate that the coculture of S. constricta in a shrimp-crab pond may result in decreased N cycling in sediment. The reduced N flux in the shrimp IMTA ponds primarily originates within the sediment, except for assimilatory nitrate reduction.

Abstract
To reduce water utilization, limit environmental pollution, and guarantee aquatic production and quality, the in-pond raceway recirculating culture system (IPRS) has been developed and is widely used. The effectiveness and sustainability of IPRSs rely on a good understanding of the ecological processes related to bacterial communities in the purification area. In this study, we investigated the dynamics and assembly mechanisms of benthic bacterial communities in the purification area of an industrial-scale IRPS. We found significant temporal and spatial variations in the sediment characteristics and benthic bacterial communities of the IPRS, although correlation analyses revealed a very limited relationship between them. Among the different culture stages, we identified numerous benthic bacteria with different abundances. Abundances of the phyla Bacteroidota and Desulfobacterota decreased whereas those of Myxococcota and Gemmatimonadota increased as the culture cycle progressed. Co-occurrence networks revealed that the bacterial community was less complex but more stable in the IPRS at the final stage compared with the initial stage. The neutral community model (NCM) showed that stochastic processes were the dominant ecological processes shaping the assembly of the benthic bacterial community. The null model suggested that homogenizing dispersal was more powerful than dispersal limitation and drift in regulating the assembly of the community. These findings indicate that the benthic microbial communities in purification areas of the IPRS may not be affected by the deposited wastes, and a more stable benthic microbial communities were formed and mainly driven by stochastic processes. However, the benthic microbial communities in the purification area at the end of the culturing stage was characterized by potentially inhibited organic matter degradation and carbon and sulfur cycling abilities, which was not corresponding to the purification area’s function. From this point on, the IPRS, especially the purification area was needed to be further optimized and improved.

Abstract
Wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) effluents are pointed as hotspots for the introduction of both commensal and pathogenic bacteria as well as their antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in receiving water bodies. For the first time, the effect of partially treated submarine effluents was explored at the bottom and surface of the water column to provide a comprehensive overview of the structure of the microbiome and associated AR, and to assess environmental factors leading to their alteration. Seawater samples were collected over a 5-month period from submarine outfalls in central Adriatic Sea, Croatia. 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing was used to establish taxonomic and resistome profiles of the bacterial communities. The community differences observed between the two discharge areas, especially in the abundance of Proteobacteria and Firmicutes, could be due to the origin of wastewaters treated in WWTPs and the limiting environmental conditions such as temperature and nutrients. PICRUSt2 analysis inferred the total content of ARGs in the studied microbiomes and showed the highest abundance of resistance genes encoding multidrug efflux pumps, such as MexAB-OprM, AcrEF-TolC and MdtEF-TolC, followed by the modified peptidoglycan precursors, transporter genes encoding tetracycline, macrolide and phenicol resistance, and the bla operon conferring β-lactam resistance. A number of pathogenic genera introduced by effluents, including Acinetobacter, Arcobacter, Bacteroides, Escherichia-Shigella, Klebsiella, Pseudomonas, and Salmonella, were predicted to account for the majority of efflux pump-driven multidrug resistance, while Acinetobacter, Salmonella, Bacteroides and Pseudomonas were also shown to be the predominant carriers of non-efflux ARGs conferring resistance to most of nine antibiotic classes. Taken together, we evidenced the negative impact of submarine discharges of treated effluents via alteration of physico-chemical characteristics of the water column and enrichment of bacterial community with nonindigenous taxa carrying an arsenal of ARGs, which could contribute to the further propagation of the AR in the natural environment.

Abstract
Our study goal was to investigate the impact of biocides and nanoparticles (NPs) on the microbial diversity in a hydraulic fracturing impacted stream. Biocides and NPs are known for their antimicrobial properties and controlling microbial growth. Previous work has shown that biocides can alter the microbial community composition of stream water and may select for biocide-resistant bacteria. Additional studies have shown that nanoparticles can also alter microbial community composition. However, previous work has often focused on the response to a single compound. Here we provide a more thorough analysis of the microbial community response to three different biocides and three different nanoparticles. A microcosm-based study was undertaken that exposed stream microbial communities to either biocides or NPs. Our results showed a decrease in bacterial abundance with different types of nanoparticles, but an increase in microbial abundance in biocide-amended treatments. The microbial community composition (MCC) was distinct from the controls in all biocide and NP treatments, which resulted in differentially enriched taxa in the treatments compared to the controls. Our results indicate that NPs slightly altered the MCC compared to the biocide-treated microcosms. After 14 days, the MCC in the nanoparticle-treated conditions was similar to the MCC in the control. Conversely, the MCC in the biocide-treated microcosms was distinct from the controls at day 14 and distinct from all conditions at day 0. This finding may point to the use of NPs as an alternative to biocides in some settings.

Abstract
Microbial gill diseases caused by either opportunistic or specific pathogens are an emerging area of concern for aquaculture producers in part due to their sometimes complex and/or cryptic nature. Many antimicrobial treatments used in aquacultural settings are broad spectrum in nature. The effect of such therapeutics upon reduction and recolonization of commensal or pathogenic microbiota post-treatment has received little attention to date. Commensal bacteria are an integral component of the barrier function of mucosal surfaces in animals. This study evaluated the effect of several commercially relevant antimicrobial treatments upon the diversity and composition of branchial bacteria of Atlantic salmon. Here we exposed Atlantic salmon smolt to a number of commercially relevant antimicrobial treatments including chemotherapeutants (chloramine-t and hydrogen peroxide) and antibiotics (oxytetracycline and florfenicol) in vivo. Subsequently we examined the change in bacterial load, 16S rRNA gene expression, and taxonomic diversity post-treatment upon the gills. Results revealed a decrease in cultivable bacterial colonies after antimicrobial treatment, and a downstream decrease in bacterial richness and abundance post-treatment, with colonization of several prominent pathogenic taxa including Vibrio and Tenacibaculum. Temporal tracing over a 14-day period demonstrated that the bacteriome of gill mucus is sensitive to change, and altered by antimicrobial treatment and handling. This study identified candidate antimicrobial treatments which could be implemented in future studies to illustrate the effect of dysbiosis on microbial gill diseases.

Abstract
From increasing evidence has emerged a tight link among the environment, intestine microbiota, and host health status; moreover, the microbial interaction in different habitats is crucial for ecosystems. However, how the environmental microbial community assembly governs the intestinal microbiota and microbial communities of multiple habitats contribute to the metacommunity remain elusive. Here, we designed two delicate experiments from temporal and spatial scales in a shrimp culture pond ecosystem (SCPE). Of the SCPE metacommunity, the microbial diversity was mainly contributed to by the diversity of–βIntraHabitats and βInterHabitats, and water and sediment communities had a large contribution to the shrimp intestine community as shown by SourceTracker and Sloan neutral community model analyses. Also, phylogenetic bin-based null model results show that microbial assembly of three habitats in the SCPE appeared to be largely driven by stochastic processes. These results enrich our understanding of the environment–intestinal microbiota–host health closely linked relationship, making it possible to be the central dogma for an anthropogenic aquaculture ecosystem. Our findings enhance the mechanistic understanding of microbial assembly in the SCPE for further analyzing metacommunities, which has important implications for microbial ecology and animal health.

A watershed impacted by anthropogenic activities: Microbial community alterations and reservoir of antimicrobial resistance genes. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2021; 793:148552. [PMID: 34328962 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2021.148552] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2021] [Revised: 06/04/2021] [Accepted: 06/15/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Water is the main resource for maintaining life. Anthropic activities influence the microbial epidemiological chain in watersheds, which can act as ways of disseminating microorganisms resistant to antimicrobial drugs, with impacts on human, animal, and environmental health. Here, we characterized aquatic microbial communities and their resistomes in samples collected along Rio das Ostras watershed during two seasons. Surface water samples were collected at eleven sites from the Jundiá, Iriry, and Rio das Ostras rivers in two seasons (dry and wet season). Microbial DNA was extracted, high-throughput sequenced and screened for antimicrobial resistance genetic (ARG) markers. The physicochemical characteristics and the microbiota data confirmed that Rio das Ostras watershed can be divided into three well defined portions: rural, urban, and marine. Rural areas were enriched by bacteria typically found in limnic environments and Patescibacteria phyla. The urban portion was characterized by sites with low pH and groups associated with iron oxidation. Some genera of clinical relevance were also identified, though in relatively low abundance. The marine site was enriched mainly by Cyanobacteria and bacteria that showed strong correlation with conductivity, salinity, and chloride. Twenty-six ARG markers were identified on the resistome, being found most frequently in the urban area, despite being present in rural sites. Among them were some related to classes of great clinical concern, such as genes coding for extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (blaCTX-M and blaTEM), resistance to carbapenems (blaKPC) and to methicillin by Staphylococcus aureus (mecA). These results broaden our understanding of the microbial community of a watershed impacted by anthropogenic actions. The large number of ARGs detected along the Rio das Ostras watershed contrasts with the small number of microorganisms of clinical relevance observed, suggesting that antimicrobial resistance has arisen from non-clinical environments and microbes. Our results corroborate that freshwater acts as a reservoir of antimicrobial resistance genes.

Aquaculture production of hatchling Hawaiian Bobtail Squid (Euprymna scolopes) is negatively impacted by decreasing environmental microbiome diversity. J Appl Microbiol 2021; 132:1724-1737. [PMID: 34724303 PMCID: PMC9299211 DOI: 10.1111/jam.15350] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2021] [Revised: 09/16/2021] [Accepted: 10/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Aims The Hawaiian Bobtail Squid (Euprymna scolopes) is a model organism for investigating host–symbiont relationships. The current scientific focus is on the microbiome within E. scolopes, while very little is known about the microbiome of the tanks housing E. scolopes. We examined the hypothesis that bacterial communities and geochemistry within the squid tank environment correlate with the production of viable paralarval squid. Methods and Results Total DNA was extracted from sediment and filtered water samples from ‘productive’ squid cohorts with high embryonic survival and paralarval hatching, ‘unproductive’ cohorts with low embryonic survival and paralarval hatching. As a control total DNA was extracted from environmental marine locations where E. scolopes is indigenous. Comparative analysis of the bacterial communities by the 16S rRNA gene was performed using next generation sequencing. Thirty‐eight differentially abundant genera were identified in the adult tank waters. The majority of the sequences represented unclassified, candidate or novel genera. The characterized genera included Aquicella, Woeseia and Ferruginibacter, with Hyphomicrobium and Rhizohapis were found to be more abundant in productive adult tank water. In addition, nitrate and pH covaried with productive cohorts, explaining 67% of the bacterial populations. The lower abundance of nitrate‐reducing bacteria in unproductive adult tank water could explain detected elevated nitrate levels. Conclusions We conclude that microbiome composition and water geochemistry can negatively affect E. scolopes reproductive physiology in closed tank systems, ultimately impacting host‐microbe research using these animals. Significance and Impact of study These results identify the tight relationship between the microbiome and geochemistry to E. scolopes. From this study, it may be possible to design probiotic counter‐measures to improve aquaculture conditions for E. scolopes.

The Characteristics of Intestinal Bacterial Community in Three Omnivorous Fishes and Their Interaction with Microbiota from Habitats. Microorganisms 2021; 9:microorganisms9102125.

Abstract
Artificial fishery habitats have been extensively used for fishery resource protection and water habitat restoration, and they could attract a large number of omnivorous fishes to gather together. This study intended to reveal the relationship between bacterial communities in the habitats (water and sediment) and intestines of omnivorous fishes (Oreochromis mossambicus, Toxabramis houdemeri and Hemiculter leucisculus). Therefore, we investigated the bacterial communities of samples collected from intestines, water, and sediments in artificial fishery habitats via 16S rRNA metabarcoding high-throughput sequencing technology. The results showed that there were significant differences in the composition, core indicators, diversity and prediction functions in water, sediments, and intestinal microbial communities of the three omnivorous fish. The microbial diversities were significantly higher in habitats than in intestines. The analysis of similarity (ANOSIM) and nonmetric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) results indicated that the intestine microbial communities (T. houdemeri and H. leucisculus) were more similar to the water microbiota, but the intestine microbial communities (O. mossambicus) were more similar to the sediments. Source tracking analysis also confirmed that the contribution of habitat characteristics to omnivorous fish intestinal microorganisms was different; the sediment had a greater contribution than water to the intestinal microbiota of O. mossambicus, which was consistent with their benthic habit. Moreover, the functional prediction results showed that there were unique core indicators and functions between the bacterial community of habitats and intestines. Altogether, these results can enhance our understanding of the bacterial composition and functions about omnivorous fish intestines and their living with habitats, which have provided new information for the ecological benefits of artificial fishery habitats from the perspective of bacterial ecology and contributed to apply artificial fishery habitats in more rivers.

MARINE BIOTECHNOLOGY (NEW YORK, N.Y.) 2021; 23:671-681. [PMID: 34414527 DOI: 10.1007/s10126-021-10056-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2021] [Accepted: 08/09/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
The acclimation of a nitrifying biofilter is a crucial and time-consuming task for setting up a recirculating aquaculture system (RAS). Gaining a better understanding of the dynamics of the microbial community during the acclimation period in the system could be useful for the development of mature nitrifying biofilters. In this study, high-throughput DNA sequencing was applied to monitor the microbial communities on a biofilter during the acclimation period (7 weeks) in high (100 mg N/L) and low (5 mg N/L) total ammonia nitrogen (TAN) treatments. Both treatments were successful for developing a mature nitrifying biofilter, dominated by Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, and Nitrospirae. Complete nitrification was found after 7 days of biofilter acclimation as indicated by decreasing TAN concentration, increasing nitrate concentration, and high abundances of the nitrifying bacteria, Nitrosomonadaceae and Nitrospiraceae. The beta diversity analysis of microbial communities showed different clustering of the samples between high and low TAN treatment groups. A greater abundance of nitrifying bacteria was found in the high TAN treatments (27-51%) than in the low TAN treatment (15-29%). The bacterial diversity in biofilters acclimated at high TAN concentration (Shannon's index 5.40-6.15) were lower than those found at low TAN treatment levels (Shannon's index 6.40-7.01). The higher diversity in biofilters acclimated at low TAN concentrations, consisting of Planctomycetes and Archaea, might benefit the nutrient recycling in the system. Although nitrification activity was observed from the first week of the acclimation period, the acclimation period should be taken as at least 6 weeks for full development of nitrifying biofilm. Moreover, the reduction of potentially pathogenic Vibrio on biofilters was found at that period.

Abstract
Microbial communities are considered as vital members to reflect the health of a riverine system. Among them, pathogenic and fecal indicators imply health risks involved with potability of river water. The present study explores the diverse microbial communities, distribution pattern of potential pathogens, and fecal indicators between the geographically distinct Himalayan and Peninsular river systems of India. It also inquires into the environmental factors associated with community variance and distribution pattern of microbial indicators. The application of high-throughput amplicon sequencing approach unveiled significant demarcation (p < 0.004, Anosim R = 0.62) of samples suggesting unique microbial diversities in these two river sediments. Random forest analysis revealed Desulfobulbulus, PSB_M_3, and Opitutus in Himalayan, while DA101, Bacillus, and Streptomyces in the Peninsular as significant contributors to develop overall dissimilarity between the river systems. Permutational multivariate analysis of variance and co-occurrence network analysis were used to study the relationships between microbial taxa and environmental factors. Amongst the various studied environmental parameters, pH, K, Ca, Mg, Ba, and Al in the Himalayan and salinity, Na, temperature, and Th in the Peninsular significantly influenced shaping of distinct microbial communities. Furthermore, the potential pathogenic genera, including Flavobacterium, Clostridium, Arcobacter, Pseudomonas, and Bacillus were highly prevalent in both the river systems. Arcobacter, Clostridium, Acinetobacter, Bacteroides, and Caloramator were the prominent fecal indicators in these river systems. Our findings provide salient information about the crucial role and interplay between various environmental factors and anthropogenic influences in framing the microbiome of the distinct river systems in India. Moreover, assessing potential pathogenic and fecal indicators suggest the public health risk associated with untreated sewage discharge into these water sources. The detection of various F/S indicators and potentially pathogenic bacteria in Himalayan and Peninsular river systems emphasize the urgent need for future monitoring and management of major riverine systems in India.

Abstract
Sediment environments harbor a repertoire of microorganisms that contribute to animal health and the microecosystem in aquaculture ecosystems, but their community diversity and the potential factors that control it remain unclear. Here, we applied 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing to investigate bacterial diversity and assembly mechanisms in the sediments of shrimp cultural ponds at the mesoscale. Our results showed that sediment bacterial communities contained 10,333 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) but had only 34 core OTUs and that the relative abundances of these core OTUs were significantly correlated with the physicochemical properties of the sediments. Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Chloroflexi, Cyanobacteria, Acidobacteria, Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, Ignavibacteriae, Spirochaetae and Planctomycetes were the ten most abundant bacterial phyla. Notably, some opportunistic pathogens (e.g. Vibrio and Photobacterium) and potential functional microbes (e.g. Nitrospira, Nitrosomonas, Desulfobulbus and Desulfuromusa) were widely distributed in shrimp cultural pond sediments. More importantly, we found that there was a significant negative but weak distance-decay relationship among bacterial communities in shrimp culture pond sediments at the mesoscale, and that the spatial turnover of these bacterial communities appeared to be largely driven by stochastic processes. Additionally, environmental factors, such as pH and total nitrogen, also played important roles in influencing the sediment bacterial structure. Our findings enhance our understanding of microbial ecology in aquatic ecosystems and facilitate sediment microbiota management in aquaculture. KEY POINTS: • Core bacterial taxa in cultural pond sediments contributed to the shrimp health and element cycling. • There was a significant negative distance-decay relationship among bacterial communities in shrimp culture pond sediments at the mesoscale, and its spatial turnover appeared to be largely driven by stochastic processes. • Environmental factors (e.g. pH and total nitrogen) played important roles in influencing bacterial structure in shrimp cultural pond sediments.

Abstract
Microorganisms are an important part of productivity, water quality, and biogeochemical cycles in an aquaculture ecosystems and play a key role in determining the growth and fitness of aquaculture animals. Coculture ecosystems are widely applied with great significance in agricultural production worldwide. The crayfish-rice coculture ecosystem (CRCE) and crayfish-waterweed coculture ecosystem (CWCE) are two high-profile artificial ecosystems for crayfish culture. However, the bacterial communities of the environmental water, sediment, and intestine in the CRCE and CWCE remain elusive. In this study, we investigated the diversity, composition, and function of bacterial communities in water, sediment, and intestine samples from the CRCE to CWCE. The physicochemical factors of water [such as ORP (oxidation-reduction potential), TC (total carbon), TOC (total oxygen carbon), and NO3--N] and sediment [such as TC, TOC, TN (total nitrogen), and TP (total phosphate)] were significantly different in the CRCE and CWCE. The abundances of Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Verrucomicrobia, Cyanobacteria, Chlorobi, Chloroflexi, and Firmicutes were significantly different in the water bacterial communities of the CRCE and CWCE. The abundance of Vibrio in the crayfish intestine was higher in the CRCE than in the CWCE. The most abundant phyla in the CRCE and CWCE sediment were Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes. The abundances of genes involved in transporters and ABC transporters were different in water of CRCE and CWCE. The abundances of genes involved in oxidative phosphorylation were significantly higher in the crayfish intestine of the CRCE than in that of the CWCE. Furthermore, the functional genes associated with carbon metabolism were significantly more abundant in the sediment of the CRCE than in that of the CWCE. Spearman correlation analysis and redundancy analysis (RDA) showed that the bacterial communities of the water and sediment in the CRCE and CWCE were correlated with environmental factors (pH, total carbon (TC), total oxygen carbon (TOC), total nitrogen (TN), and total phosphorus (TP)). Our findings showed that the composition, diversity and function of the bacterial communities were distinct in the environmental water, sediment, and intestine of the CRCE and CWCE crayfish coculture ecosystems due to their different ecological patterns. These results can help guide healthy farming practices and deepen the understanding of bacterial communities in crayfish-plant coculture ecosystems from the perspective of bacterial ecology. KEY POINTS: • The composition of bacterial communities in the environmental water, sediment, and intestine of the CRCE and CWCE were distinct. ̉• The abundances of genes involved in transporters and ABC transporters were different in the water of the CRCE and CWCE. • The bacterial communities of the water and sediment in the CRCE and CWCE were correlated with some environmental factors.

Abstract
The FDA Produce Safety Rule states that water used for irrigation purposes, likely to come into contact with the edible portion of fruit and vegetables, must not exceed a defined limit of Escherichia coli populations. Although aquaponics has not been included in this guideline, it is worth investigating to establish a baseline for facilities to reference in produce production. Two microbial assays were performed, one a decoupled media-based aquaponics system over one year and another on a decoupled nutrient film technique (NFT) aquaponics system over 16 days. Water was sampled from each system over time to analyze changes of E. coli and coliforms. The geometric mean (GM) and statistical threshold variable (STV) were calculated based on E. coli populations from the irrigation source in each system. From the first experiment, it was determined, based on the FDA Produce Safety Rule, that E. coli must be monitored more closely from June to January as they were above the advised limit. The second experiment determined that E. coli and coliforms in the water significantly decreased over 16 days. Water should be held for 8 d and up to 16 d to reduce the likelihood of foodborne pathogens to contaminate produce.

Abstract
Aiming at the reutilizing wastewater for algal growth and biomass production, a saline water rejected from reverse osmosis (RO) facility (salinity 67.59 g L−1) was used to cultivate the pre-adapted green microalga Chlorella vulgaris. The inoculum was prepared by growing cells in modified BG-11 medium, and adaptation was performed by applying a gradual increase in salinity (56.0 g L−1 NaCl and 125 ppm FeSO4·7H2O) to the culture in 200 L photobioreactor. Experiments using the adapted alga were performed using original-rejected water (ORW) and treated rejected water (TRW) comparing with the recommended growth medium (BG-11). The initial salinity of ORW was chemically reduced to 39.1 g L−1 to obtain TRW. Vertical photobioreactors (15 L) was used for indoor growth experiments. Growth in BG-11 resulted in 1.23 g L−1, while the next adaptation growth reached 2.14 g L−1 of dry biomass. The dry weights of re-cultivated Chlorella after adaptation were 1.49 and 2.19 g L−1 from ORW and TRW; respectively. The cellular oil content was only 12% when cells grown under control conditions verses to 14.3 and 15.42% with original and treated water, respectively. Induction of stress affected the fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) profile and the properties of the resulting biodiesel. The present results indicated that induction of stress by high salinity improves the quality of FAMEs that can be used as a promising biodiesel fuel.

Abstract
Because colony formation is essential to seek bacterial functions by the direct observation of phenotype, the diversification of colony formation for culturable bacteria is a big challenge in the research field of Environmental Biotechnology. In this study, the biodiversity of cultivable bacteria (colony or liquid culture) was compared by using Luria-Bertani (LB) medium and waste sewage sludge (WSS) under different dilutions and temperatures. When WSS was used as a bacterial source, whereas the highest number of colonies was found at the concentration of WSS (5%), a particular concentration of LB (10%) or WSS (1%) as a growth medium showed the best number of the operational taxonomic units (OTUs) of colonies. The results of bacterial community structure indicated that there are 1, 8, and 12 bacterial genera found uniquely in the agar plates of LB, 10% LB, and 5% WSS. By contrast, when palm oil mill effluent sludge was used as a bacterial source, the effect of dilution was different with WSS. When comparing the biodiversity between colonies and liquid culture, a high OTU value was observed in the colonies on the plate. In addition, 30°C showed the highest number of colonies in LB, 10% LB, and 5% WSS whereas the best OTUs were observed at 37°C for LB and 10% LB, and at 25°C for 5% WSS. This study demonstrates the diversification of cultivable bacteria through the number of OTUs in diluted LB medium and WSS, which is beneficial to isolate a unique bacterial strain.Key points• Impacts of diluted LB medium and WSS for colony formation were determined.• Difference of concentration of LB and WSS made different effects on colony formation.• Temperature change affected on diluted LB and WSS as media.

JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2021; 408:124882.

Abstract
The microplastics pollution in wild aquatic organisms has been described by many studies. However, few studies focused on the farmed ones and MPs impacts on their gut microbiota under natural conditions. Here, we present the first detection of MPs in shrimp ponds and Litopenaeus vannamei. We also globally, firstly and preliminarily investigate the association between colonization of microorganism on MPs and intestinal microbiota under natural conditions. Microplastics (5129 ± 1176 items/kg d.w.) in sediments were mainly pellets, mostly white and blue, and in size less than 1 mm. Microplastics (14.08 ± 5.70 items/g w.w.) in shrimps were higher than that in mostly wild aquatic organisms and positively correlated with that in sediments. Blue fibers in small size (<0.5 mm) were dominant in shrimps. The bacterial communities and their microbial function on MPs were similar with that in shrimp gut, with higher diversity and richness in bacteria communities colonized on MPs. Network analysis demonstrated that the colonization of microorganism on MPs were associated with shrimp intestinal microbiota. Results suggest that except for toxicity reported previously, the effects on intestinal microbiota induced by MPs were possibly because of the biofilm on their surfaces as well, causing notable impacts on aquatic animals.

Abstract
The interplay between shrimp immune system, its environment, and microbiota contributes to the organism’s homeostasis and optimal production. The metagenomic composition is typically studied using 16S rDNA profiling by clustering amplicon sequences into operational taxonomic units (OTUs) and, more recently, amplicon sequence variants (ASVs). Establish the compatibility of the taxonomy, α, and β diversity described by both methods is necessary to compare past and future shrimp microbiota studies. Here, we used identical sequences to survey the V3 16S hypervariable-region using 97% and 99% OTUs and ASVs to assess the hepatopancreas and intestine microbiota of L. vannamei from two ponds under standardized rearing conditions. We found that applying filters to retain clusters >0.1% of the total abundance per sample enabled a consistent taxonomy comparison while preserving >94% of the total reads. The three sets turned comparable at the family level, whereas the 97% identity OTU set produced divergent genus and species profiles. Interestingly, the detection of organ and pond variations was robust to the clustering method’s choice, producing comparable α and β-diversity profiles. For comparisons on shrimp microbiota between past and future studies, we strongly recommend that ASVs be compared at the family level to 97% identity OTUs or use 99% identity OTUs, both using tailored frequency filters.

Abstract
This study explored biofloc technology for shrimp culture based on straw substrates with a size of 40 mu, 80 mu, and 120 mu. Straw substrates utilization stimulated shrimp growth compared to control. Treatment with 40 mu had the best ammonium (71.60%) and nitrite nitrogen (77.78%) removal rates generally. In all biofloc treatments, Proteobacteria (4.10-56.1%) was the most dominant phylum, followed by Bacteroidetes (2.44-38.21%), Planctomycetes (0.45-21.41%), and Verrucomicrobia (1.2-10.30%). Redundancy analysis showed that salinity was a significant factor closely related to the microbial community in biofloc. The environmental parameters (DO > pH > TN > NH4+-N > COD > Salinity > EC), nitrification, and denitrification genes (amoA > napA > nirK) were significant factors that interrelated with the bacterial genus in the network analysis. This study highlighted a novel technology of reusing agricultural waste that transformed inorganic nitrogen using nutrient recycling to control water quality in the culture system and produced microbial proteins that served as a natural nutritional supplement to enhance shrimp growth.

Abstract
Modifying the surface of an anode can improve electroactive bacteria (EAB) enrichment, thereby enhancing the performance of the associated microbial electrochemical systems (MESs). In this study, biosynthetic FeS nanoparticles were used to modify the anode in MESs. The experimental results demonstrated that the stable maximum voltage of the FeS composited biochar (FeS/BC)-modified anode reached 0.72 V, which is 20% higher than that of the control. The maximum power density with the FeS/BC anode was 793 mW/m2, which is 46.31% higher than that obtained with the control (542 mW/m2). According to cyclic voltammetry (CV) analysis, FeS/BC facilitates the direct electron transfer between bacteria and the electrode. The biomass protein concentration of the FeS/BC anode was 841.75 μg/cm2, which is almost 1.5 times higher than that of the carbon cloth anode (344.25 μg/cm2); hence, FeS/BC modification can promote biofilm formation. The composition of Geobacter species on the FeS/BC anode (75.16%) was much higher than that on the carbon cloth anode (4.81%). All the results demonstrated that the use of the biosynthetic FeS/BC anode is an environmentally friendly and efficient strategy for enhancing the electroactive biofilm formation and EAB enrichment in MESs.

Abstract
To elucidate the individual and multiple roles of physiological bacterial groups involved in biogeochemical cycles of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and sulfur, the changes in the abundance of aerobic bacteria (heterotrophs, methane oxidizers, ammonia oxidizers, sulfur oxidizers, phosphate solubilizers, phosphate accumulators) and anaerobic bacteria (total anaerobes, nitrate reducers, denitrifiers and sulfate reducers) were investigated in a biosecured, zero-exchange system stocked with whiteleg shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei for one production cycle. Key water quality parameters during the 96-day production cycle fell within the normal range for L. vannamei culture. Results of Spearman's correlation matrix revealed that different sets of variables correlated at varying levels of significance of the interrelationships between bacterial abundances and water quality parameters. The three nitrogenous species (ammonia, nitrite and nitrate) strongly influenced the physiological bacterial groups' abundance. The strong relationship of bacterial groups with phytoplankton biomass and abundance clearly showed the trophic interconnections in nutrient exchange/recycling. Canonical correspondence analysis performed to assess the total variation revealed that the three dissolved nitrogen species followed by salinity, temperature, phytoplankton biomass and pH collectively accounted for as much as 82% of the total variation. In conclusion, the results of the study revealed that the major drivers that interweaved biogeochemical cycles are the three dissolved nitrogen species, which microbially mediated various aerobic-anaerobic assimilation/dissimilation processes in the pond ecosystem. Considering the pond microbial ecology becoming an important management tool where applied research could improve the economic and environmental sustainability of the aquaculture industry, the findings of the present study are practically relevant.
