However, the participation of phages in soil's overall ecological functions (multifunctionality) remains unclear. Hence, this study investigated the potential for phages and bacterial communities to shape the multifunctionality of compost-applied soils. The findings revealed that cow compost and vermicompost applications enhanced the soil's multifunctionality; consequently, the highest multifunctionality was observed in the soil with vermicompost application (p < 0.05). The composition and diversity of bacteria and phages, as well as the abundance of functional genes of bacteria and phages related to carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and sulphur metabolism, were dramatically altered following the application of both compost types. Moreover, the impact of phage diversity on soil multifunctionality is crucial for multi-threshold calculations. Structural equation modelling indicated that the effects of bacterial diversity on soil multifunctionality following compost application were paramount, with a path coefficient of 0.88 (p < 0.01). The rise in phage diversity and the enrichment of functional genes indirectly led to a dramatic increase in the soil's ecological multifunctionality by affecting the host bacteria's metabolic processes. These results offer a novel avenue to improve soil's functions and environmental services by transforming the phage community composition and functions of soils.","PeriodicalId":11898,"journal":{"name":"Environmental microbiology","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.1,"publicationDate":"2025-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143660634","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results revealed several novel genera, families and species, including three specimens belonging to Beggiatoales (Beggiatoaceae family), five to Desulfobacterales (Desulfobacteraceae family), two to the Chloroflexi phylum and one to the phylum Firmicutes. Metabolically, Beggiatoaceae bacteria exhibit a flexible and versatile genomic repertoire, enabling them to adapt to variable conditions at the sediment–water interface. All the bacteria demonstrated a mixotrophic mode, gaining energy from both inorganic and organic carbon sources. Except for the Firmicutes bacterium, all others displayed the ability to grow chemolithoautotrophically using H2 and CO2. Remarkably, the reverse tricarboxylic acid (rTCA) and Calvin–Benson–Bassham (CBB) pathways coexisted in one Beggiatoaceae bacterium. Additionally, various defence systems, such as CRISPR-Cas, along with evidence of viral interactions, have been identified. These defence mechanisms suggest that large filamentous bacteria inhabiting sulphidic sediments frequently encounter bacteriophages. Thus, robust defence mechanisms coupled with multicellularity may determine the survival or death of these large bacteria.","PeriodicalId":11898,"journal":{"name":"Environmental microbiology","volume":"27 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1462-2920.70083","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143646108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We hypothesise that the timing and strength of the NO signal necessary for full nir expression are key factors in the bet-hedging strategy of Paracoccus denitrificans, and that systems scavenging NO under hypoxia reduce the probability of nir induction. We show that the flavohemoglobin Hmp scavenges NO in aerobic cultures and that hmp is regulated by an NsrR-type repressor. Using a strain with an mCherry-nirS fusion, we found a clear, negative effect of Hmp on initial nir expression. Deletion of norCB eliminated bet-hedging, but the elevated NO levels in co-cultures with the wild type did not abolish bet-hedging in the wild type cells. Our results demonstrate clear roles for Hmp and Nor in regulating the expression of nirS through NO scavenging, while suggesting that the trigger for nir induction is not NO itself, but rather an intracellularly generated derivative.

Little is known about how these environmental factors affect the microbiome of N. luetkeana, which could affect nutrient availability, vitamin production, and stress response for the host. We experimentally tested the interactive effects of three seawater temperatures (13°C, 16°C, 21°C) crossed with abundant and replete DIN levels on the diversity and composition of blade-associated microbiomes from two spatially separated kelp host populations. We hypothesised that kelp microbiomes exposed to high temperatures and low DIN would experience the lowest diversity. Contrary to our hypothesis, the highest temperature treatment resulted in the largest increase in microbial diversity, and microbiomes in all temperature treatments experienced a decrease in previously dominant taxa. Temperature had a larger effect than DIN on the kelp microbiome in all cases.
