Microbes produce specialized compounds to compete or communicate with one another and their environment. Some of these compounds, such as antibiotics, are also useful in medicine biotechnology. Historically, most antibiotics have come from soil bacteria which can be isolated grown the lab. Though vast majority cannot isolated, we extract genetic information search it for genes compounds. These understudied offer a wealth potential discovery new important microbial products. Here, identified ability diverse novel range environments.

Members of the bacterial family Flavobacteriaceae are widely distributed in marine environment and often found associated with algae, fish, detritus or invertebrates. Yet, little is known about characteristics that drive their ubiquity diverse ecological niches. Here, we provide an overview functional traits common to taxonomically members from different environmental sources, a focus on Marine clade. We include seven newly sequenced sponge-derived strains were also tested for gliding motility antimicrobial activity.

Abstract Sponges underpin the productivity of coral reefs, yet few their microbial symbionts have been functionally characterised. Here we present an analysis ~1200 metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) spanning seven sponge species and 25 phyla. Compared to MAGs derived from reef seawater, sponge-associated were enriched in glycosyl hydrolases targeting components tissue, mucus macroalgae, revealing a critical role for cycling organic matter. Further, visualisation distribution these genes amongst symbiont taxa uncovered functional guilds matter degradation. Genes utilisation sialic acids glycosaminoglycans tissue found specific lineages that also encoded attachment sponge-derived fibronectins cadherins, suggesting can utilise structural elements tissue. encoding CRISPR restriction-modification systems used defence against mobile genetic symbionts, along with eukaryote-like gene motifs thought be involved maintaining host association. Finally, provide evidence many sponge-enriched are laterally transferred between taxa, they confer selective advantage within niche therefore play ecology evolution.

Sponges are the oldest known extant animal-microbe symbiosis. These ubiquitous benthic animals play an important role in marine ecosystems cycling of dissolved organic matter (DOM), largest source on Earth. The conventional view DOM through microbial processing has been challenged by interaction between this efficient filter-feeding host and its diverse abundant microbiome. Here we quantify, for first time, cells symbionts sponge heterotrophy. We combined stable isotope probing nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry to compare different sources (glucose, amino acids, algal-produced) particulate (POM) a high-microbial abundance (HMA) low-microbial (LMA) with single-cell resolution. Contrary common notion, found that both choanocyte (i.e. filter) were active uptake. Although all assimilated sponges, higher biomass HMA corresponded increased capacity process greater variety compounds. Nevertheless, situ feeding data demonstrated was primary carbon LMA sponge, accounting ~90% their heterotrophic diets. Microbes accounted majority (65-87%) (and ~60% total diet) but <5% sponge. propose evolutionary success sponges is due strategies exploit vast reservoir ocean.

Abstract In the deep ocean symbioses between microbes and invertebrates are emerging as key drivers of ecosystem health services. We present a large-scale analysis microbial diversity in deep-sea sponges (Porifera) from scales sponge individuals to basins, covering 52 locations, 1077 host translating into 169 species (including understudied glass sponges), 469 reference samples, collected anew during 21 ship-based expeditions. demonstrate impacts abundance status, geographic distance, phylogeny, physical-biogeochemical environment microbiome composition, descending order relevance. Our study further discloses that fundamental concepts microbiology apply robustly across distances >10,000 km. Deep-sea microbiomes less complex, yet more heterogeneous, than their shallow-water counterparts. underscores uniqueness each ground based on which we provide critical knowledge for conservation these vulnerable ecosystems.
