Whilst the development of next-generation sequencing, and more recently third generation long-read approaches such as nanopore sequencing, have greatly advanced the study of metagenomics, recovery of unbiased material from microbial populations remains challenging. One promising advancement in genomic sequencing from Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) is adaptive sampling, which enables real-time enrichment or depletion of target sequences. As sequencing technologies continue to develop, and advances such as adaptive sampling become common techniques within the microbiological toolkit, it is essential to evaluate the benefits of such advancements to metagenomic studies, and the impact of methodological choices on research outcomes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Aim and methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Given the rapid development of sequencing tools and chemistry, this study aimed to demonstrate the impacts of choice of DNA extraction kit and sequencing chemistry on downstream metagenomic analyses. We first explored the quality and accuracy of 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing for DNA extracted from the ZymoBIOMICS Microbial Community Standard, using a range of commercially available DNA extraction kits to understand the effects of different kit biases on assessment of microbiome composition. We next compared the quality and accuracy of metagenomic analyses for two nanopore-based ligation chemistry kits with differing levels of base-calling error; the older and more error-prone (~ 97% accuracy) LSK109 chemistry, and newer more accurate (~ 99% accuracy) LSK112 Q20 + chemistry. Finally, we assessed the impact of the nanopore sequencing chemistry version on the output of the novel adaptive sampling approach for real-time enrichment of the genome for the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae from the microbial community.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Firstly, DNA extraction kit methodology impacted the composition of the yield, with mechanical bead-beating methodologies providing the least biased picture due to efficient lysis of Gram-positive microbes present in the community standard, with differences in bead-beating methodologies also producing variation in composition. Secondly, whilst use of the Q20 + nanopore sequencing kit chemistry improved the base-calling data quality, the resulting metagenomic assemblies were not significantly improved based on common metrics and assembly statistics. Most importantly, we demonstrated the effective application of adaptive sampling for enriching a low-abundance genome within a metagenomic sample. This resulted in a 5-7-fold increase in target enrichment compared to non-adaptive sequencing, despite a reduction in overall sequencing throughput due to strand-rejection processes.

'One Health' emphasizes the connectivity of each component's health. Chemical stress typically causes dysbiotic microbiomes, but it remains unclear whether chemical stressors consistently affect the microbiomes of food chain components. Here, we challenged food chain components, including water, sediments, soil, plants, and animals, with three chemical stresses consisting of arsenic (toxic trace element), benzoxazinoids (bioactive plant metabolites), and terbuthylazine (herbicide). We analysed 1064 microbiomes to assess their commonalities and differences in their stress responses. We found that chemical stressors overall decreased microbiome diversity in soil, but not in the other microbiomes. In response to stress, all food chain communities strongly shifted in their composition, generally becoming compositionally more similar to each other. In addition, we observed stochastic effects in host-associated communities (plant, animal). Dysbiotic microbiomes were characterized by different sets of bacteria, which responded specifically to the three chemical stressors. Microbial co-occurrence patterns significantly shifted with either decreased (water, sediment, plant, animal) or increased (soil) network sparsity and numbers of keystone taxa following stress treatments. These results suggest major re-distribution of specific taxa in the overall stress- and component-specific responses of microbiomes with the community stability of plant and animal microbiomes being the most affected by chemical stresses.</p>","PeriodicalId":48553,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Microbiome","volume":"20 1","pages":"43"},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12039292/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144022879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We analyzed 32 metagenomic samples from six groundwater wells within a hillslope aquifer system to assess the genetic and functional diversity of plasmids and to evaluate the role of these plasmids in horizontal gene transfer (HGT).</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Our results revealed 4,609 non-redundant mobile genetic elements (MGEs), with 14% (664) confidently classified as plasmids. These plasmids displayed well-specific populations, with fewer than 15% shared across wells. Plasmids were linked to diverse microbial phyla, including Pseudomonadota (42.17%), Nitrospirota (3.31%), Candidate Phyla Radiation (CPR) bacteria (2.56%), and Omnitrophota (2.11%). The presence of plasmids in the dominant CPR bacteria is significant, as this group remains underexplored in this context. Plasmid composition strongly correlated with well-specific microbial communities, suggesting local selection pressures. Functional analyses highlighted that conjugative plasmids carry genes crucial for metabolic processes, such as cobalamin biosynthesis and hydrocarbon degradation. Importantly, we found no evidence of high confidence emerging antibiotic resistance genes, contrasting with findings from sewage and polluted groundwater.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Overall, our study emphasizes the diversity, composition, and eco-evolutionary role of plasmids in the groundwater microbiome. The absence of known antibiotic resistance genes highlights the need to preserve groundwater in its pristine state to safeguard its unique genetic and functional landscape.</p>","PeriodicalId":48553,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Microbiome","volume":"20 1","pages":"42"},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12023590/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144046583","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
