콩은 우리나라와 극동아시아가 원산지로 알려져 있으나 국산 콩의 근권 세균 군집에 대한 연구는 미흡하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 국산 재배콩을 대상으로 차세대 염기서열 분석 방법인 파이로시퀀싱 방법을 사용하여 콩 근권 세균 군집 구조를 해석하고 생육단계별 군집의 변화 및 콩 근권의 핵심 세균 군집을 구명하고자 하였다. 세균 군집 분석 결과, 근권 세균의 군집은 근권과 비근권간에 뚜렷한 차이를 보였으며, 총 21개의 문으로 구성되었다. Proteobacteria가 가장 우점(36.6-42.5%)하였고, Acidobacteria (8.6-9.4%), Bacteroidetes (6.1-10.9%), Actinobacteria (6.4-9.8%), Firmicutes (5.7-6.3%) 등의 순으로 상대풍부도가 감소하였다. 모든 생육단계에 걸쳐 콩 근권의 핵심 세균 군집에는 Proteobacteria에 속한 OTU들이 가장 많이 분포하였으며, 이들 중 Bradyrhizobium에 속한 OTU의 상대 풍부도가 가장 높았다. 본 연구결과는 콩 근권의 핵심 세균 군집은 주로 생육 촉진 기능과 유기물 순환에 관련된 OTU로 구성되어 있다는 것을 보여주었다.

Pollination is an essential process for plants to carry on their generation. Pollination is carried out in various ways depending on the type of plant species. Among them, pollination by insect pollinator accounts for the most common. However, these pollinators have be decreasing in population density due to environmental factors. Therefore, use of artificial pollination is increasing. However, there is a lack of information on microorganisms present in the artificial pollens. We showed the composition of bacteria structure present in the artificial pollens of apple, kiwifruit, peach and pear, and contamination of high-risk pathogens was investigated. Acidovorax spp., Pantoea spp., Erwinia spp., Pseudomonas spp., and Xanthomonas spp., which are classified as potential high-risk pathogens, have been identified in imported pollens. This study presented the pollen-associated bacterial community structure, and the results are expected to be foundation for strengthening biosecurity in orchard industry.

Objective: To investigate changes in rumen fermentation characteristics and bacterial community by a sudden change to a high concentrate diet (HC) in Korean domestic ruminants. Methods: Major Korean domestic ruminants (each of four Hanwoo cows; $545.5{\pm}33.6kg$, Holstein cows; $516.3{\pm}42.7kg$, and Korean native goats; $19.1{\pm}1.4kg$) were used in this experiment. They were housed individually and were fed ad libitum with a same TMR (800 g/kg timothy hay and 200 g/kg concentrate mix) twice daily. After two-week feeding, only the concentrate mix was offered for one week in order to induce rapid rumen acidosis. The rumen fluid was collected from each animals twice (on week 2 and week 3) at 2 h after morning feeding using an oral stomach tube. Each collected rumen fluid was analyzed for pH, volatile fatty acid (VFA), and $NH_3-N$. In addition, differences in microbial community among ruminant species and between normal and an acidosis condition were assessed using two culture-independent 16S polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based techniques (terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism and quantitative real-time PCR). Results: The HC decreased ruminal pH and altered relative concentrations of ruminal VFA (p<0.01). Total VFA concentration increased in Holstein cows only (p<0.01). Terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism and real-time quantitative PCR analysis using culture-independent 16S PCR-based techniques, revealed rumen bacterial diversity differed by species but not by HC (p<0.01); bacterial diversity was higher in Korean native goats than that in Holstein cows. HC changed the relative populations of rumen bacterial species. Specifically, the abundance of Fibrobacter succinogenes was decreased while Lactobacillus spp. and Megasphaera elsdenii were increased (p<0.01). Conclusion: The HC altered the relative populations, but not diversity, of the ruminal bacterial community, which differed by ruminant species.

The microbial activity and bacterial community structure of activated sludge reactors, which treated free cyanide (FC), zinc-complexed cyanide (ZC), or nickel-complexed cyanide (NC), were studied. The three reactors (designated as re-FC, re-ZC, and re-NC) were operated for 50 days with a stepwise decrease of hydraulic retention time. In the re-FC and re-ZC reactors, FC or ZC was almost completely removed, whereas approximately 80-87% of NC was removed in re-NC. This result might be attributed to the high toxicity of nickel released after degradation of NC. In the batch test, the sludges taken from re-FC and re-ZC completely degraded FC, ZC, and NC, whereas the sludge from re-NC degraded only NC. Although re-FC and re-ZC showed similar properties in regard to cyanide degradation, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) analysis of the 16S rRNA gene of the bacterial communities in the three reactors showed that bacterial community was specifically acclimated to each reactor. We found several bacterial sequences in DGGE bands that showed high similarity to known cyanide-degrading bacteria such as Klebsiella spp., Acidovorax spp., and Achromobacter xylosoxidans. Flocforming microorganism might also be one of the major microorganisms, since many sequences related to Zoogloea, Microbacterium, and phylum TM7 were detected in all the reactors.

Microbial diversity in the soil is responsive to changes in soil composition. However, the impact of soil amendments on the diversity and structure of rare and abundant sub-communities in agricultural systems is poorly understood. We investigated the effects of different Chinese herb residue (CHR) soil amendments and cropping systems on bacterial rare and abundant sub-communities. Our results showed that the bacterial diversity and structure of these sub-communities in soil had a specific distribution under the application of different soil amendments. The CHR soil amendments with high nitrogen and organic matter additives significantly increased the relative abundance and stability of rare taxa, which increased the structural and functional redundancy of soil bacterial communities. Rare and abundant sub-communities also showed different preferences in terms of bacterial community composition, as the former was enriched with Bacteroidetes while the latter had more Alphaproteobacteria and Betaproteobacteria. All applications of soil amendments significantly improved soil quality of newly created farmlands in whole maize cropping system. Rare sub-communitiy genera Niastella and Ohtaekwangia were enriched during the maize cropping process, and Nitrososphaera was enriched under the application of simple amendment group soil. Thus, Chinese medicine residue soil amendments with appropriate additives could affect soil rare and abundant sub-communities and enhance physicochemical properties. These findings suggest that applying soil composite amendments based on CHR in the field could improve soil microbial diversity, microbial redundancy, and soil fertility for sustainable agriculture on the Loess Plateau.

토양과 작물근계에 있어서 유용미생물의 농업적 이용을 위해서는 토양-근계의 미생물군집구조를 명확히 이해하고 파악하는 것이 무엇보다도 중요하다. 따라서 본 연구는 비닐하우스내에서 재배한 고추와 토마토의 생육이 건전한 지점과 역병이 이병되어 생육이 불량한 지점에서 토양과 작물근계의 미생물군집을 분석하여, 앞으로 생물비료 생물농약의 실용화를 위한 미생물의 농업적 이용에 대한 기초 자료로 활용하고자, 다각적인 측면에서 미생물 군집을 분석한 일련의 연구를 수행하는 데 있어서 배양이 되는 세균군집구조 결석의 결과를 보고 하고자 한다. 세균군집 구조를 분석한 결과 전세균 및 방선균의 개체군은 토양, 근면시료에 있어서 큰 변동을 보이지 않은 반면, 형광성 pseudomonas의 개체수는 토양보다는 근면(rhizoplane)에서 큰 변동을 보였으며 특히 근면에서 높은 개체군을 보였다. 또한 근면에 있어서는 건전한 근면이 역병이 이병된 비건전한 근면보다도 높은 개체군을 보였다. 그리고 고추와 토마토작목간에는 큰 차를 보이지 않았다. MIDI system을 이용한 지방산조성 분석에 의한 세균 285균주에 대하여 각각을 동정한 결과, 크게 두 그룹으로 뚜렸하게 나타났다. 가장 높은 것이 주로 Bacillus 속인 저(低) G + C 그램양성세균군이 52%를 보였고, 방선균 등의 고(高) G + C 그램양성세균군이 33%를 보였다. 따라서 토양 및 근권세균의 농업적 이용에 있어서 형광성 pseudomonas. Bacillus spp., 방선균등의 적절한 활용이 기대된다.

폐수처리에 중요한 역할을 담당하고 있는 세균 군집의 다양성과 폐수종류에 따른 군집차이를 알아보기 위해 분자생물학적 분석방법을 사용하였다. 국내 폐수처리장 슬러지 시료로부터 16S rDNA 클론 라이브러리를 구축하였고, HaeIII RFLP pattern과 염기서열을 분석하였다. 하수처리장 시료에서는 총 1,151개의 클론에서 699개의 서로 다른 RFLP pattern이, 화학산업 폐수처리장 시료에서는 총 1,228개의 클론에서 300개의 서로 다른 RFLP pattern이 관찰되었다. Shannon-Weiner diversity index의 계산결과 하수처리장 슬러지 시료는 8.7,화학산업 폐수처리장 슬러지 시료는 6.1로 하수처리장시료가 더 다양한 군집을 구성하고 있었다. 두 시료에서 우점하는 RFLP pattern에 해당되는 40개의 클론을 선정하여 염기서열 분석과 상동성 검색을 수행하였다. 분석된 서열의 $70\%$인 28개의 클론은 배양이 보고되지 않은 균주의 16S rRNA와 유사도가 높았고, 두 시료 모두 ${\beta}-Proteobacteria$가 우점하였다. 그러나, 하수처리장의 경우 활성슬러지에서 분리된 균주들과 유사한 군집이 많았던 반면, 화학산업 페수처리장의 경우 고온이며, 혐기성이고,탄화수소나 황이 많이 존재하는 환경에서 분리된 균주들과 유사한 군집이 많았다. 이러한 결과는 유입수의 조성에 따른 차이로 생각된다.

Zooplankton community structure and the factors correlated with community differences were examined in sandusky Bay (SB) and the open water of Lake Erie (LE, U.S.A.). SB zooplankton communities differed from those in LE by having a greater rotifer density and species richness. Keratella spp., Brachionus spp., and Pompholyx complanata dominated SB rotifers; Brachionus and Pompholyx were rarely seen in LE. Of 19 rotifer species observed, nine species were found only at SB sites. Ordination of zooplankton species abundance by detrended correspondence analysis (DCA) showed an overlap between SB and LE sites, but indicated a portion of the space that was occupied by only SB communities. The seasonal trajectories of zooplankton dynamics in the ordination space at SB sites differed from that of LE. The zooplankton most important in forcing site separation along a DCA Axis I at SB sites were Brachionus angularis, Pompholyx complanata, Keratella valga, Keratella quadrata, Filinia terminalis (rotifers), and Eubosmina coregoni and Daphnia (cladocerans). These species had axis scores which were significantly correlated (p<0.01) with bacterial density and bacterial phosphorus, total phosphorus, and algal density. Very high baterial density and very abundant bacterivorous rotifers in SB suggest that the transport of bacterial carbon through rotifers may be a relatively important link to higher trophic leaels. We believe that this "microbial carbon flow" from the base of the food web may be important in determining the suitability of SB as a spawning site and nursery for larval and juvenile fish.nile fish.

Light hydrocarbons accumulated in subsurface soil by long-term microseepage could favor the anomalous growth of indigenous hydrocarbon-oxidizing microorganisms, which could be crucial indicators of underlying petroleum reservoirs. Here, Illumina MiSeq sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene was conducted to determine the bacterial community structures in soil samples collected from three typical oil and gas fields at different locations in China. Incubation with n-butane at the laboratory scale was performed to confirm the presence of "universal microbes" in light-hydrocarbon microseepage ecosystems. The results indicated significantly higher bacterial diversity in next-to-well samples compared with background samples at two of the three sites, which were notably different to oil-contaminated environments. Variation partitioning analysis showed that the bacterial community structures above the oil and gas fields at the scale of the present study were shaped mainly by environmental parameters, and geographic location was able to explain only 7.05% of the variation independently. The linear discriminant analysis effect size method revealed that the oil and gas fields significantly favored the growth of Mycobacterium, Flavobacterium, and Pseudomonas, as well as other related bacteria. The relative abundance of Mycobacterium and Pseudomonas increased notably after n-butane cultivation, which highlighted their potential as biomarkers of underlying oil deposits. This work contributes to a broader perspective on the bacterial community structures shaped by long-term light-hydrocarbon microseepage and proposes relatively universal indicators, providing an additional resource for the improvement of microbial prospecting of oil and gas.

In order to assess the effects of organic fertilizer on soil microbial community structure and diversity in the greenhouse fields, fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) was analyzed by the MIDI (Microbial ID, Inc., Newark, DE, U.S.A.) system and enumerations were performed. In relation to bacterial division of each sample, low GC Gram-positive bacteria were predominant among bacteria cultured on aerobic bacteria media. On the other hand, alpha subdivision was predominant on proteobacteria of control and OM (organic matter) 1 treated plot, and Flavobacterium spp. existed in OM2 plot on crystal violet media of all samples. Shannon-weaver Index (H) of OM1 plot varied most by 1.9 and 5.0 among bacteria cultured on aerobic bacteria media and crystal violet media, respectively. Our results revealed that addition of the organic wastes to soil led to a highly diverse microbial community, but the excessive amounts of organic and mineral fertilizer applied in the greenhouse fields produced excess nutrients in soil and led to simplification on bacterial populations.
