Variable impact of geochemical gradients on the functional potential of bacteria, archaea, and phages from the permanently stratified Lac Pavin

Alexander L. L. Jaffe et al.

Summary: The metabolism of microbial lineages in Lac Pavin, a stratified lake in central France, is impacted by oxygen gradients, leading to distinct carbon fixation pathways in different zones. However, this impact is smaller on Candidate Phyla Radiation (CPR) bacteria and phages compared to other bacteria and archaea.

Sulfur cycling and host-virus interactions in Aquificales-dominated biofilms from Yellowstone's hottest ecosystems

Luke J. McKay et al.

Summary: This study identified Sulfurihydrogenibium as the predominant chemoautotrophs in the sublacustrine, vapor-dominated vents of Yellowstone National Park, along with the host-virus interactions within the microbial community. The research also revealed that carbon fixation by Sulfurihydrogenibium was powered by the oxidation of reduced sulfur and H-2, and discovered uncultivated virus genomes associated with this chemoautotroph.

Synergistic effects of prokaryotes and oxidants in rapid sand filters treatment of groundwater versus surface water: Purification efficacy, stability and associated mechanisms

Haiyang Yang et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that the addition of potassium permanganate (KMnO4) significantly reduced the start-up period for treating groundwater and surface water in RSF systems, enhancing manganese removal rates. Prokaryotes played a crucial role in system performance and NH4+-N removal, enriching bacterial community diversity and improving RSF stability when facing hydraulic loading shock. The synergistic effect of KMnO4 and prokaryotes provided new insights into manganese and ammonium elimination in RSF systems, beneficial for practical applications.

Can we shape microbial communities to enhance biological activated carbon filter performance?

Zedong Lu et al.

Summary: This study investigates the linkages between microbial community structure and biofilter function in biological activated carbon (BAC) filters. It finds that the pore size distribution of granular activated carbon (GAC) is crucial for BAC filter performance, particularly micropores and micro-level macropores. Additionally, the study reveals that microbial cooperation is more prevalent than competition in BAC filters, and identifies key bacterial species that contribute significantly to metabolic functions.

Microbial ecology of biofiltration used for producing safe drinking water

Xi Bai et al.

Summary: Biofiltration is a crucial water treatment technology for producing safe drinking water. It is gaining worldwide interest due to its advantages of no chemical addition, low energy input, and high removal efficiency of organic compounds, undesirable taste and odours, and pathogens. This review highlights the microbial ecology of three commonly used biofiltration processes in drinking water treatment plants and summarizes their characteristics, removal performance, and newly revealed mechanisms. It also discusses the role of microbial communities in removing nutrients, organic compounds, and pathogens, and suggests future perspectives for a comprehensive understanding of the microbial ecology of biofiltration.

Cultivation-independent genomes greatly expand taxonomic-profiling capabilities of mOTUs across various environments

Hans-Joachim Ruscheweyh et al.

Summary: We developed mOTUs3, a command line tool that enables accurate species-level profiling of metagenomes. It provides a more comprehensive view of prokaryotic community diversity, especially for underexplored microbiomes. The tool leverages the reconstruction of over 600,000 draft genomes, including metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs), to address the lack of reference genomes for many microbial species. mOTUs3 is found to be more accurate and congruent with 16S rRNA gene-based methods, and it increases the resolution of microbial groups and identifies differentially abundant taxa in comparative metagenomic studies.

Crop management shapes the diversity and activity of DNA and RNA viruses in the rhizosphere

George Muscatt et al.

Summary: This study investigates the impact of crop management on the composition and activity of viral communities in soil. The researchers found that soil viruses play a role in driving bacterial community succession and their activity increases with proximity to crop roots. This study provides evidence of crop rotation-driven impacts on soil microbial communities, including viral communities, and highlights the importance of considering soil viruses in exploiting the rhizosphere microbiome for food security and environmental sustainability.

Ecological and functional roles of bacteriophages in contrasting environments: marine, terrestrial and human gut

Teagan L. Brown et al.

Summary: The role of bacteriophages in the microbiome is still poorly understood. However, recent metagenomic studies have provided valuable data on the genomic diversity of bacteriophages and their specific roles in microbial communities. By learning from these studies, we can focus on two aspects of bacteriophage's role in the microbiome: their ecological role in structuring bacterial populations and their contribution to microbiome functioning through encoding auxiliary metabolism genes.

Huahua Jian et al.

Summary: By analyzing 19 microbial metagenomes from different oceanic trenches, this study established the oceanic trench viral genome dataset (OTVGD) and found that the trench viral communities exhibited high novelty and potential infection to ecologically important microbial clades. Inter-trench and intra-trench exchange of viral communities was proposed, along with niche-dependent distribution patterns and genomic properties in different habitats and ocean zones. Notably, viruses in the hadal zone seemed to prefer lysogenic lifestyles and had specific auxiliary metabolic genes, suggesting their impact on the hadal ecosystem.

Prokaryotic viruses impact functional microorganisms in nutrient removal and carbon cycle in wastewater treatment plants

Yiqiang Chen et al.

Summary: This study presents a catalogue of approximately 50,000 prokaryotic viruses from six WWTPs, significantly increasing the known diversity of AS viruses. Most viral genera are found in multiple AS systems, spanning various archaeal and bacterial phyla, and linked with functional microorganisms controlling nitrogen/phosphorous removal. Notably, Mycobacterium, associated with AS foaming, is connected with 402 viral genera. These findings expand the current AS virus catalogue and provide insights for phage treatment in controlling undesired microorganisms in WWTPs.

Enhanced mutualistic symbiosis between soil phages and bacteria with elevated chromium-induced environmental stress

Dan Huang et al.

Summary: The study revealed that heavy metal pollution affected the abundance, diversity, and composition of viral and bacterial communities in soils. Enhanced host-phage linkage and mutualistic phage-bacterium interactions were observed under greater environmental stresses, facilitating the spread of heavy metal resistance genes and adaptation of the microbial community to extreme habitats. Viral genomic analysis further demonstrated that lysogenic phages under higher Cr-induced stresses carried more auxiliary metabolic genes regulating microbial heavy metal detoxification.
