Legacies may result if historical climate differences alter the traits of soil microbial communities, particularly those associated with carbon cycling and stress tolerance. However, it is also possible that contemporary conditions can overcome the influence of historical climate, particularly under extreme conditions. Using shotgun metagenomics, we assessed the composition of soil microbial functional genes across a mean annual precipitation gradient that previously showed evidence of strong climate legacies in soil carbon flux and extracellular enzyme activity. Sampling coincided with recovery from a regional, multi-year severe drought, allowing us to document how the strength of climate legacies varied with contemporary conditions. We found increased investment in genes associated with resource cycling with historically higher precipitation across the gradient, particularly in traits related to resource transport and complex carbon degradation. This legacy effect was strongest in seasons with the lowest soil moisture, suggesting that contemporary conditions-particularly, resource stress under water limitation-influences the strength of legacy effects. In contrast, investment in stress tolerance did not vary with historical precipitation, likely due to frequent periodic drought throughout the gradient. Differences in the relative abundance of functional genes explained over half of variation in microbial functional capacity-potential enzyme activity-more so than historical precipitation or current moisture conditions. Together, these results suggest that long-term climate can alter the functional potential of soil microbial communities, leading to legacies in carbon cycling.","PeriodicalId":50271,"journal":{"name":"ISME Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11805608/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142973118","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"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}

A large number of rare taxa in the community have not been excluded by abundant taxa with competitive advantages, a contradiction known as the biodiversity paradox. Recently, increasing evidence has revealed the central importance of antimicrobial toxins as crucial weapons of antagonism in microbial survival. The powerful effects of antimicrobial toxins result in simple combinations of microorganisms failing to coexist under laboratory conditions, but it is unclear whether they also have a negative impact on the biodiversity of natural communities. Here, we revealed that microbial communities worldwide universally possess functional potential for antimicrobial toxin production. Counterintuitively, the biodiversity of global microbial communities increases, rather than decreases, as the abundance of antimicrobial toxins in rare taxa rises. Rare taxa may encode more antimicrobial toxins than abundant taxa, which is associated with the maintenance of the high biodiversity of microbial communities amid complex interactions. Our findings suggest that the antagonistic interaction caused by antimicrobial toxins may play a positive role in microbial community biodiversity at the global scale.","PeriodicalId":50271,"journal":{"name":"ISME Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11822679/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143030278","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"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}

Periodic or random fluctuation in diet typically alters the metabolic niches available to gut microbes, thereby continuously reshaping bacterial diversity and interspecific interactions. It remains unclear how closely related bacteria adapt to these fluctuations and maintain coexistence within the bee gut. Here, we demonstrate that the five predominant Gilliamella species associated with Apis cerana, a widely distributed Asiatic honey bee, have diverged in carbohydrate metabolism to adapt to distinct nutrient niches driven by dietary fluctuation. Specifically, the glycan-specialists gain improved growth on a pollen-rich diet, but are overall inferior in competition to non-glycan-specialist on either a simple sugar or sugar-pollen diet, when co-inoculated in the bee host and transmitted across generations. Strikingly, despite of their disadvantage in a high-sugar condition, the glycan-specialists are found prevalent in natural A. cerana guts. We further reveal that these bacteria have adopted a life history strategy characterized by high biomass yield on a low-concentration sugar diet, allowing them to thrive under poor nutritional conditions, such as when the bee hosts undergo periodical starvation. Transcriptome analyses indicate that the divergence in life history strategies is attributed to gene expression programming rather than genetic variation. This study highlights the importance of integrative metabolic strategies in carbohydrate utilization, which facilitate the coexistence of closely related Gilliamella species in a changing bee gut environment.","PeriodicalId":50271,"journal":{"name":"ISME Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11822680/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143076200","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"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 predict self-destructive cooperators can persist in highly segregated environments where populations are primarily divided into homogenous groups originating from one or two founders. In such contexts, the benefits of self-destructive cooperators remain within homogeneous groups of self-destructive cooperators, preserving the sacrifice value and ensuring its maintenance. To validate our hypothesis, we employ a synthetic self-destructive cooperators-cheaters system and develop automated experiments to monitor and operate the subgroups with diverse growth behaviors due to strong segregation. Ultimately, we demonstrate self-destructive cooperators is maintained under strong segregation. High stress further enhances self-destructive cooperators by reducing the benefits received by cheaters in heterogeneous subgroups.

Despite conceptually analogous to a multispecies invasion, the ecological processes driving this phenomenon remain poorly understood. Here, we developed and implemented a beta-diversity-based statistical framework to quantify the contribution of distinct donor communities to community reassembly dynamics over time following coalescence. We conducted a microcosm experiment with soils manipulated at varying levels of community structure (via dilution-to-extinction) and subjected these to pairwise coalescence scenarios. Overall, our results revealed variable patterns of abiotic and biotic donor dominance across distinct treatment sets. First, we show the occasional presence of an upfront stringent abiotic filter to disproportionally favor a donor biotic dominance through a \"home-field advantage\" mechanism, with abiotic factors explaining >90% of the variance in community structure. Functional community metrics (i.e. carbon metabolism and extracellular enzymatic activities) were significantly linked to donor contributions in these cases. Second, in the absence of abiotic dominance, interspecific interactions gained importance, with abiotic variables explaining <40% of the variance. Here, functional redundancy in donor communities (e.g. lower dilution) led to nonsignificant relationships between donor contributions and functional metrics. Collectively, this study advances the integration of coalescence with well-established fundamentals of invasion biology theory, highlighting the interplay of abiotic and biotic factors structuring community reassembly following coalescence. Last, we propose that our beta-diversity-based framework is widely applicable across various microbial systems. We believe this approach will promote research advances by offering a unified method for analyzing and quantifying coalescence.","PeriodicalId":50271,"journal":{"name":"ISME Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2025-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11971568/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143774660","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"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}

This is especially true in high microbial abundance (HMA) sponges, where filtration is usually deprecated in favor of a larger association with prokaryotic symbionts. Sponge-microbiome association is substantially less understood for deep-sea sponges than for shallow water species. This is most unfortunate, since HMA sponges can form massive sponge grounds in the deep sea, where they dominate the ecosystems, driving their biogeochemical cycles. Here, we assess the microbial transcriptional profile of three different deep-sea HMA sponges in four locations of the Cantabrian Sea and compared them to shallow water HMA and LMA (low microbial abundance) sponge species. Our results reveal that the sponge microbiome has converged in a fundamental metabolic role for deep-sea sponges, independent of taxonomic relationships or geographic location, which is shared in broad terms with shallow HMA species. We also observed a large number of redundant microbial members performing the same functions, likely providing stability to the sponge inner ecosystem. A comparison between the community composition of our deep-sea sponges and another 39 species of HMA sponges from deep-sea and shallow habitats, belonging to the same taxonomic orders, suggested strong homogeneity in microbial composition (i.e. weak species-specificity) in deep sea species, which contrasts with that observed in shallow water counterparts. This convergence in microbiome composition and functionality underscores the adaptation to an extremely restrictive environment with the aim of exploiting the available resources.","PeriodicalId":50271,"journal":{"name":"ISME Journal","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10837836/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139747726","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"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}

However, we have corresponding knowledge on environmental preferences (i.e. bacterial growth responses across gradients in oxygen, pH, temperature, salinity, and other environmental conditions) for a relatively narrow swath of bacterial diversity. These limits to our understanding of bacterial ecologies constrain our ability to predict how assemblages will shift in response to global change factors, design effective probiotics, or guide cultivation efforts. We need innovative approaches that take advantage of expanding genome databases to accurately infer the environmental preferences of bacteria and validate the accuracy of these inferences. By doing so, we can broaden our quantitative understanding of the environmental preferences of the majority of bacterial taxa that remain uncharacterized. With this perspective, we highlight why it is important to infer environmental preferences from genomic information and discuss the range of potential strategies for doing so. In particular, we highlight concrete examples of how both cultivation-independent and cultivation-dependent approaches can be integrated with genomic data to develop predictive models. We also emphasize the limitations and pitfalls of these approaches and the specific knowledge gaps that need to be addressed to successfully expand our understanding of the environmental preferences of bacteria.","PeriodicalId":50271,"journal":{"name":"ISME Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":10.8,"publicationDate":"2024-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11488383/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142373437","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"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}
