  • This study was carried out utilzing ability of sole carbon sources in soil microbial communities used by Biolog GN microplate. Cluster analysis showed that soil microbial cornmuties were categorized into three groups as forest, non-forest soil and naked soil of microbial group. Soil microbial commutites in a forest soil of Qirercus mongoIica was divided into another group microbial communites in Qirercus dendata vegetation soil and Pinus dnzsqlora vegetation soil by Multidimensional scaling(MDS). Generally, sole carbon utilzing abilties were higher in order of polymer, amino acids and carboxylic acids, but it was lower in amides substrates carbon group. From the result: it was supposed that metabolic diversity of microbial communities was corresponded to vegetation succession.

  • 연안에 가까운 광양만 퇴적토를 대상으로 하여 PAHs 오염도와 말단제한절편 다형성 분석방법(T-RFLP method)을 이용하여 미생물 군집구조를 조사하였다. 조사된 10개 정점의 PAHs오염도는 80$\pm$20~5,690$\pm$580 (평균 1,499$\pm$1,716) ng/g dry wt.였으며 폐수종말처리장이 위치하는 하천 입구에 위치한 정점 (Wl)과 광양제철소 우수배출구 입구에 위치한 정점에서 상대적으로 높은 농도를 보였다. T-RFLP방법으로 조사한 미생물 군집은 10개 정점이 4개의 그룹으로 구분되었으며 정점 Wl에서 다른 정점과 다른 독특한 군집구조를 형성하였다. PAHs 농후배양시료에서의 미생물군집구조 변화와 비교해 볼 때 조사대상지역 퇴적토의 미생물 군집구조는 PAHs의 오염에 부분적으로는 영향을 받지만 입도, 유기물 등과 같은 환경요인이 군집구조를 결정하는 주된 요인인 것으로 생각된다.

  • Studies based on microbial community analyses have increased in the recent decade since the development of next generation sequencing technology. Associations of gut microbiota with host's health are one of the major outcomes of microbial ecology filed. The major approach for microbial community analysis includes the sequencing of variable regions of 16S rRNA genes, which does not provide the information of bacterial activities. Here, we conducted RNA-based microbial community analysis and compared results obtained from DNA- and its cDNA-based microbial community analyses. Our results indicated that these two approaches differed in the ratio of Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes, known as an obesity indicator, as well as abundance of some key bacteria in gut metabolisms such as butyrate producers and probiotics strains. Therefore, cDNA-based microbial community may provide different insights regarding roles of gut microbiota compared to the previous studies where DNA-based microbial community analyses were performed.

  • There are four key factors for gas-phase biofilters; biocatalysts(microorganisms), packing materials, design/operating techniques, and diagnosis/management techniques. Biofilter performance is significantly affected by microbial community structures as well as loading conditions. The microbial studies on biofilters are mostly performed on basis of culture-dependent methods. Recently, advanced methods have been proposed to characterize the microbial community structure in environmental samples. In this study, the physiological, biochemical and molecular methods for profiling microbial communities are reviewed, and their applicability to biofilters is discussed. Community-level physiological profile is based on the utilization capability of carbon substrate by heterotrophic community in environmental samples. Phospholipid fatty acid analysis method is based on the variability of fatty acids present in cell membranes of different microorganisms. Molecular methods using DNA directly extracted from environmental samples can be divided into "partial community DNA analysis" and "whole community DNA analysis" approaches. The former approaches consist in the analysis of PCR-amplified sequence, the genes of ribosomal operon are the most commonly used sequences. These methods include PCR fragment cloning and genetic fingerprinting such as denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, terminal-restriction fragment length polymorphism, ribosomal intergenic spacer analysis, and random amplified polymorphic DNA. The whole community DNA analysis methods are total genomic cross-DNA hybridization, thermal denaturation and reassociation of whole extracted DNA and extracted whole DNA fractionation using density gradient.

  • Since the development of the next generation sequencing (NGS) technology, 16S rRNA gene sequencing has become a major tool for microbial community analysis. Recently, human microbiome project (HMP) has been completed to identify microbes associated with human health and diseases. HMP achieved characterization of several diseases caused by bacteria, especially the ones in human gut. While human intestinal bacteria have been well characterized, little have been studied about other animal intestinal bacteria. In this study, we surveyed diversity of livestock animal fecal microbiota and discuss importance of studying fecal microbiota. Here, we report the initiation of the fecal microbiome project in South Korea.

  • 16S rRNA를 분석한 연구들은 자연 생태계에서 추출한 핵산을 이용하여 16rRNA 유전자의 염기서열을 분석하거나 특정 DNA probe를 이용한 hybridization 실험이 주류를 이루어 왔다. 특히 PCR 기법이 개발됨에 따라 적은 양의 시료를 대량으로 손쉽게 증폭시킬 수 있어 다양한 분야에 응용되고 있다. 세균 군집의 구조를 이해하는데 있어서 PCR 방법의 적용 대상은 주로 16S rRNA 유전자의 염기서열 해독분야이며 해양 생태계를 대상으로 많은 연구 결과가 보고되었다(11,13,21,26). 한편 자연 생태계의 개별적 미생물 분류룬들을 검출하기 위한 특정 oligonucleotide probe의 개발방법들은 미생물 군집의 유전적 다양성에 대한 정보 파악 이외에 배양이 어려운 혐기성 세균과 같은 특정 세균들의 동정에도 이용되고 있다(3,24,55). 본고에서는 세균 군집의 구조와 다양성을 연구하는데 적용 가능한 rRNA 분석방법들을 수계 생태계를 중심으로 살펴보고자 한다.

  • Tea is the most popular beverage in the world. In fact, there are mainly three different kinds of tea (Green tea, black tea, and post-fermented tea). Post-fermented tea is produced by the microbial fermentation process using sun-dried green tea leaves (Camellia sinensis) as the raw material. Chungtaejeon was a traditional tea introduced in the age of the ancient three states and is the only "Ddeok-cha or Don-cha" culture in the world that survived on the southwestern shore of Republic of Korea. In this study, the structures of the bacterial community involved in the production of oriental traditional post-fermented tea (Chungtaejeon) were investigated using 16S rRNA gene analysis. The 16S rRNA gene analysis of dominant microbial bacteria in post-fermented tea confirmed the presence of Pantoea sp., and Klebsiella oxytoca. Phylogenetic analysis suggested that the taxonomic affiliation of the dominant species in the post-fermented tea was ${\gamma}$-proteobacteria. As a result of the microbial community size analysis, it was confirmed that the size of the microbial communities of Chungtaejeon was the largest compared to other teas

  • Despite the importance of traditional Korean fermented foods, little is known about the microbial communities and diversity of fermented soy products. To gain insight into the unexplored microbial communities of both Doenjang (DJ) and Ganjang (GJ) that may contribute to the fermentation in Korean traditional foods, we carried out next-generation sequencing (NGS) based on the V3-V4 region of 16S rDNA gene analysis. The alpha diversity analysis results revealed that both the Shannon and Simpson diversity indices were significantly different between the two groups, whereas the richness indices, including ACE, CHAO, and Jackknife, were not significant. Firmicutes were the most dominant phylum in both groups, but several taxa were found to be more abundant in DJ than in GJ. The proportions of Bacillus, Kroppenstedtia, Clostridium, and Pseudomonas and most halophiles and halotolerant bacteria, such as Tetragenococcus, Chromohalobacter, Lentibacillus, and Psychrobacter, were lower in DJ than in GJ. Linear discriminant effect size (LEfSe) analysis was carried out to discover discriminative functional biomarkers. Biomarker discovery results showed that Bacillus and Tetragenococcus were identified as the most important features for the classification of subjects to DJ and GJ. Paired-permutational multivariate analysis of variance (PERMANOVA) further revealed that the bacterial community structure between the two groups was statistically different (p=0.001).

  • We examined the vertical distribution of specific microbial groups and the patterns of microbial community structure within the soil profile using phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA). Samples were collected from the soil surface down to 15 cm in depth from paddy and upland fields located in Daegu, Korea. The two fields have been fertilized with only chemical fertilizers N, P, K for 33 years. Principal component analysis of the PLFA signatures indicated that the composition of the soil microbial communities changed significantly with the cultivation practices and soil depth, suggesting that cultivation practices of paddy and upland fields had more significant influence on soil microbial community than the soil depth did. The soil microbial communities changed more drastically with soil depth in upland field than in paddy field, with making thicker soil surface in paddy field in terms of soil microbial community. The ratios of cyclopropyl/monoenoic precursors and total saturated/total monounsaturated fatty acids increased with soil depth, suggesting that the deeper soil horizons are more carbon-limited and anaerobic than surface soil. The community analysis using PLFAs as biomarkers revealed that Gram-positive bacteria and actinomycetes tended to increase in proportional abundance with increasing soil depth, while the abundance of Gram-negative bacteria and fungi were highest at the soil surface and substantially lower in the subsurface.

  • The fermentation process of kimchi, which is a traditional Korean food, influences the resulting compo- sition of microorganisms, such as the genera Leuconostoc, Weissella, and Lactobacillus. In addition, several factors, including the type of kimchi, fermentation conditions, materials, and ingredients, can influence the distribution of the kimchi microbial community. In this study, next-generation sequencing (NGS) of kimchi samples obtained from central (Gangwon-do and Gyeonggi-do) and southern (Jeolla-do and Gyeongsang-do) regions in Korea was performed, and the microbial communities in samples from the two regions were compared. Good's coverage prediction for all samples was higher than 99%, indicating that there was sufficient reliability for comparative analysis. However, in a α -diversity analysis, there was no significant difference in species richness and diversity between samples. The Firmicutes phylum was common in both regions. At the species level, Weissella kandleri dominated in central (46.5%) and southern (30.8%) regions. Linear discriminant analysis effect size (LEfSe) analysis was performed to identify biomarkers representing the microbial community in each region. The LEfSe results pointed to statistically significant differences between the two regions in community composition, with Leuconostocaceae (71.4%) dominating in the central region and Lactobacillaceae (61.0%) dominating in the southern region. Based on these results, it can be concluded that the microbial communities of kimchi are significantly influenced by regional properties and that it can provide more useful scientific data to study the relationship between regional characteristics of kimchi and their microbial distribution.
