A holobiont approach towards polysaccharide degradation by the highly compartmentalised gut system of the soil-feeding higher termite Labiotermes labralis

Termites are among the most successful insects on Earth and can feed a broad range of organic matter at various stages decomposition. The termite gut system is often referred to as micro-reactor complex structure consisting several components. It includes host, its microbiome fungal gardens, in case fungi-growing higher termites. digestive tract soil-feeding termites characterised by radial axial gradients physicochemical parameters (e.g. pH, O2 H2 partial pressure), also differs density residing microbial communities. Although account for 60% known species, their biomass degradation strategies far less compared wood-feeding counterparts.In this work, we applied an integrative multi-omics approach first time holobiont level study highly compartmentalised Labiotermes labralis. We relied 16S rRNA gene community profiling, metagenomics (meta)transcriptomics uncover distribution functional roles, particular those related carbohydrate hydrolysis, across different compartments members bacterial host itself. showed that was dominated Firmicutes phylum, whose abundance gradually decreased towards posterior segments hindgut, favour Bacteroidetes, Proteobacteria Verrucomicrobia. Contrary expectations, observed L. labralis microbes expressed high diversity active enzymes involved cellulose hemicelluloses degradation, making unique reservoir lignocellulolytic with considerable biotechnological potential. evidenced cellulases have phylogenetic origins structures, which possibly translated into specificities cellulose. From ecological perspective, could speculate capacity distinct polymorphs retained soil might enabled species widely colonise habitats Amazon basin.Our provides interesting insights hydrolytic potential gut. large number targeting lignocellulose components make worker relevant lignocellulose-valorising model mimic conversion industries.

Insects and microbes: best friends from the nursery

Current Opinion in Insect Science, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 66, P. 101270 - 101270

Published: Sept. 16, 2024

Insects host microbes and interact with them throughout their life cycle. This microbiota is an important, if not essential, partner participating in many aspects of insect physiology. Recent omics studies have contributed to considerable advances the current understanding molecular implications during development. In this review, we present overview knowledge about mechanisms underlying interactions between developing insects microbial companions. The implicated nutrition, both via compensating for metabolic pathways lacking regulating metabolism. Furthermore, plays a protective role, enhancing insect's tolerance to, or resistance against, various environmental stresses.

Gut bacteria of adult and larval Cotinis nitida Linnaeus (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) demonstrate community differences according to respective life stage and gut region

Frontiers in Microbiology, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 14

Published: July 7, 2023

The close association between bacteria and insect hosts has played an indispensable role in diversity ecology. Thus, continued characterization of such insect-associated-microbial communities is imperative, especially those saprophagous scarab beetles. bacterial community the digestive tract adults larvae cetoniine species Cotinis nitida characterized according to life stage, gut structure, sex via high-throughput 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing. Through permutational ANOVAs resulting sequences, system are shown differ significantly taxon richness, evenness relatedness. Significant community-level differences also observed midgut hindgut adult beetles, while no significant host-sex observed. partitioning larval through two distinct regions, ileum expanded paunch, but not portion region. These data further corroborate hypothesis strong members Scarabaeoidea, suggest hypotheses physiological-digestive association, demonstrate presence a seemingly unusual non-scarab-associated taxon. findings contribute general portrait scarabaeoid illuminating microbiome common new world Gymnetini-a tribe largely neglected beetle symbiosis literature.
