The dynamics of microbial community structure of the various domestic wastewater treatment processes were examined using a novel approach of quinone profiles. The compositions of microbial quinone of 5 sites fer plant and lab-scale activated sludge were analyzed. More than 14 kinds of quinones were observed in the activated sludges tested in this study. The microbial community structure of the plant activated sludge processes a little differed from that of the lab-scale submerged MBR systems. The dominant quinones were UQ-8, UQ-10 followed $MK-8(H_4)$, MK-7 and MK-6. The molar ratio of ubiquinones to menaquinones (UQ/MK) changed from 0.81 to 1.9, indicating that aerobic bacteria dominated the microbial community of the activated sludge examined. The microbial diversity of the activated sludges calculated from the all quinone compositions was 9.5-11.9 and the microbial equability of the activated sludges was 0.64-0.79.

Various environmental ecosystems are valuable sources for microbial ecology studies, and their analyses using recently developed molecular ecological approaches have drawn significant attention within the scientific community. Changes in the microbial community structures due to various anthropogenic activities can be evaluated by various culture-independent methods e.g. ARISA, DGGE, SSCP, T-RFLP, clone library, pyrosequencing, etc. Direct amplification of total community DNA and amplification of most conserved region (16S rRNA) are common initial steps, followed by either fingerprinting or sequencing analysis. Fingerprinting methods are relatively quicker than sequencing analysis in evaluating the changes in the microbial community. Being an efficient, sensitive and time- and cost effective method, T-RFLP is regularly used by many researchers to access the microbial diversity. Among various fingerprinting methods T-RFLP became an important tool in studying the microbial community structure because of its sensitivity and reproducibility. In this present review, we will discuss the important developments in T-RFLP methodology to distinguish the total microbial diversity and community composition in the various ecosystems.

폐기물매립장의 안정화에는 미생물이 중요한 역할을 수행한다. 폐기물매립장에서 미생물군집 변화 모니터링에 말단 제한절편다형성(Terminal Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism; T-RFLP)법의 활용 가능성을 평가하고자 박테리아의 16S rDNA 서열에 기초한 T-RFLP법으로 4개의 폐기물매립장 내부에서 채취한 침출수의 미생물군집 구조를 조사하였다. T-RFLP법을 사용하여 해석한 침출수 내 우점 미생물군집 구조와 일반적으로 널리 사용되고 있는 16S rDNA 클론 해석법에 의한 우점 미생물군집구조는 유사하였다. 또한, T-RFLP법을 이용하여 폐기물매립장의 구조, 매립 폐기물 종류, 운영기간이 다른 폐기물매립장 침출수의 우점 미생물군집 구조가 서로 다르게 나타나는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 따라서 T-RFLP법을 사용하여 폐기물매립장 침출수내 미생물군집 구조를 장기적으로 모니터링 한다면 많은 비용과 시간이 소요되는 클론해석법의 반복적인 수행 없이도 비교적 간단하게 폐기물매립장의 안정화 정도를 평가할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

최근 10년간 미생물생태분석 기반의 연구는 차세대염기서열분석법이 개발된 이래로 지속적으로 증가하고 있다. 장내미생물생태와 건강의 연관성은 미생물 생태학 분야에 있어서 중요한 결과로 여겨지고 있다. 미생물 군집 분석은 주로 16S rRNA 유전자 가변 영역의 염기서열을 통해 분석되지만 이는 미생물의 활성 정보를 제공하지 않는다. 본 연구에서는 cDNA 기반의 미생물 생태분석을 수행하고 DNA 및 cDNA기반의 미생물생태분석 결과를 비교하였다. 두 가지의 서로 다른 접근법이 Butyrate producer와 probiotics와 같이 장내 대사과정에서 중요한 미생물의 abundance 뿐만 아니라 비만 지표로 알려진 Firmicutes 와 Bacteroidetes의 비율에 있어서 차이가 있음을 나타내었다. 따라서, cDNA 기반 미생물 군집은 이전에 수행된 DNA 기반 미생물 군집 분석과 비교하여 장내미생물생태의 역할과 관련된 또 다른 분석 방향성을 제공한다.

본 연구는 경기도 중소하천에서 하상의 부착미생물군집의 시간에 따른 생장 변화와 부착미생물군집의 성장에 따른 불소의 제거 효율을 파악하기 위해 수행하였다. 방류수가 유입되는 지점인 P1과 그 곳에서 약 2 km 유하한 하류 지점인 P2에서 12주 동안의 현장 모니터링을 실시하고, 조사 지점의 수질과 부착미생물군집의 생체량 분석을 진행하였다. 부착미생물군집의 성장량은 7차 조사 시점까지 증가하다 이후 탈리현상이 발생하는 것으로 관찰되었으며, 부착미생물군집의 성장에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 유량, 유속, 영양물질(질소, 인) 등으로 조사되었다. 한편, 부착미생물군집 체내의 불소 함유량 또한 7차 조사 시기까지 증가하다 8차 시점부터 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 이는 부착미생물군집의 탈리현상에 의해 불소의 함유량 또한 감소하였음을 사사한다. 이를 통해 하천 관리의 방안으로서 부착미생물군집의 활용법에 대한 평가 및 관리에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 부착미생물군집을 활용한 기법의 적용 시에는 부착미생물군집의 성장에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 요인에 대한 기초 조사 및 탈리 시점에 따른 부착판 교체 방안 등이 포함되어야할 것으로 사료된다.

The seasonal change in attached algae and microbial community structure at sedimentation basin of water treatment plant was investigated by using quinone profiles and denaturing gel gradient electrophoresis (DGGE). The photosynthetic bacteria and algae contains PQ-9 and VK-1 as major quinone are major component of the total quinone fraction in attached algae and microorganisms on sedimentation basin trough. The microorganisms containing menaquinones appear to be sensitivity to the change in temperature than those containing ubiquinones. The plot of the mole fraction of dominant quinone species ($f_d$) to the DQ values showed higher sensitivity to the seasonal change in the microbial community structure. The results indicated that quinone and DGGE are useful tool for the evaluation of the changes in the microbial community structure.

Soil samples were collected from new-developed wetland soil ecosystem of Tamarix chinesis plantation in Chinese Yellow River Delta in different months of 2003. Soil characteristics, temporal change and spatial distribution of microbial community composition and their relationship with nitrogen turnover and circling were investigated in order to analyze and characterize the role of microbial diversity and functioning in the specific soil ecosystem. The result showed that the total population of microbial community in the studied soil was considerably low, compared with common natural ecosystem. The amount of microorganism followed as the order: bacteria> actinomycetes>fungi. Amount of actinomycetes were higher by far than that of fungi. Microbial population remarkably varied in different months. Microbial population of three species in top horizon was corrected to that in deep horizon. Obvious rhizosphere effect was observed and microbial population was significantly higher in rhizosphere than other soils due to vegetation growth, root exudation, and cumulative dead fine roots. Our results demonstrate that microbial diversity is low, while is dominated by specific community in the wetland ecosystem of Tamarix chinesi.

Electricity generation of microbial fuel cells (MFC) is greatly affected by the kind of feed substrates because substrates would change microbial community of electrochemically active bacteria (EAB) able to transfer electrons to electrode. The effect of different substrates on electricity generation and microbial community of MFC was investigated. Two-chamber MFCs fed with acetate (A-MFC), butyrate (B-MFC), propionate (P-MFC), glucose (G-MFC) and a mixture (M-MFC) of the 4 substrates (acetate : butyrate : propionate : glucose = 1 : 1 : 1 : 1 as $COD_{Cr}$ base) were operated under continuous mode. The maximum power density was found from the M-MFC ($190W/m^3$) which showed the lowest internal resistance ($89{\Omega}$). The maximum power densities of the pure substrates feed MFCs were in order of A-MFC ($25W/m^3$), P-MFC ($21W/m^3$), B-MFC ($20W/m^3$) and G-MFC ($9W/m^3$). In DGGE analysis, the microbial community structure in suspension was quite different from each others depending on feed substrates, while the community structure in the biofilm was relatively similar regardless of the substrates. This result suggests that the feed substrates would affect the microbial community of suspended growth bacteria than attached growth bacteria resulting in difference of electricity generation in MFCs.

Understanding the microbial community and function are crucial knowledge for crop management. In this study, bacterial and fungal community structures both rhizosphere and endosphere in kiwifruit were analyzed to gain our knowledge in kiwifruit microbiome. Microbial community in rhizosphere was less variation than endosphere community. Functional prediction results demonstrated that abundance of saprotrophic fungi was similar in both rhizosphere and endosphere, but potential pathogenic fungi was more abundance in endosphere than in rhizosphere. This finding suggested that maintain healthy soil is the first priority to protect the host plant against biotic stresses.

Allyl isothiocyanate (AITC), as a fumigant, plays an important role in soil control of nematodes, soil-borne pathogens, and weeds, but its effects on soil microorganisms are unclear. In this study, the effects of AITC on microbial diversity and community composition of Capsicum annuum L. soil were investigated through Illumina high-throughput sequencing. The results showed that microbial diversity and community structure were significantly influenced by AITC. AITC reduced the diversity of soil bacteria, stimulated the diversity of the soil fungal community, and significantly changed the structure of fungal community. AITC decreased the relative abundance of dominant bacteria Planctomycetes, Acinetobacter, Pseudodeganella, and RB41, but increased that of Lysobacter, Sphingomonas, Pseudomonas, Luteimonas, Pseudoxanthomonas, and Bacillus at the genera level, while for fungi, Trichoderma, Neurospora, and Lasiodiplodia decreased significantly and Aspergillus, Cladosporium, Fusarium, Penicillium, and Saccharomyces were higher than the control. The correlation analysis suggested cellulase had a significant correlation with fungal operational taxonomic units and there was a significant correlation between cellulase and fungal diversity, while catalase, cellulose, sucrase, and urease were the major contributors in the shift of the community structure. Our results will provide useful information for the use of AITC in the assessment of environmental and ecological security.
