This study aimed to the variations of fungal diversity and community structure in different parts of traditional homemade Sichuan pork bacon. A total of seven phyla and 91 fungal genera were identified. Among them, Ascomycota and Basidiomycota were the first and second most abundant phyla in the bacon tissues. In addition, five dominant genera (Aspergillus, Candida, Debaryomyces, Malassezia, and Penicillium) were shared by all bacon tissues. The numbers of OTUs unique to individual groups were 14, 67, and 65 for the muscle tissue, the adipose tissue, and pork skin, respectively. Linear discriminant analysis showed that a total of 31 taxa significantly differed among the groups. Results of redundancy analysis indicated that fat content, protein content, aw, and pH of bacon tissue shaped the bacon fungal communities. Results of network analysis also indicated that tissue type was a crucial factor influencing the fungal interactions in different tissues. This study can lay a foundation for further isolation and identification of fungi in the product and provides a basis for further research of food health in homemade traditional pork bacon.Here, we report a novel double-stranded RNA virus designated Colletotrichum liriopes partitivirus 1 (ClPV1) from the plant pathogenic fungus C. liriopes. ClPV1 genome has two double stranded RNAs (dsRNAs), named as dsRNA 1 and dsRNA 2, which in the lengths of 1,807 and 1,706 bp, respectively. The dsRNA 1 and dsRNA 2 encoded proteins showing significant amino acid (aa) sequence identity to the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) and coat protein (CP) of partitiviruses, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis using the aa sequences of RdRp and CP indicated that ClPV1 was grouped to members of the putative Epsilonpartitivirus genus in the Partitiviridae family. Spherical viral particles in approximately 35 nm in diameter and packaging the ClPV1 genome were isolated. Virus elimination and virus transfection with purified viral particles, and biological comparison revealed that ClPV1 could reduce the virulence and conidia production of C. liriopes. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of mycovirus in C. liriopes fungus.Melampsora larici-populina is a macrocyclic rust, and the haploid stage with two nuclei and the diploid of mononuclear sequentially occur annually. During the preservation of dry urediniospores at -80°C, we found that one isolate, ΔTs06, was different from the usual wild-type isolate Ts06 at -20°C because it has mixed polykaryotic urediniospores. However, the other spores, including the 0, I, III, and IV stages of a life cycle, were the same as Ts06. After five generations of successive inoculation and harvest of urediniospores from the compatible host Populus purdomii, the isolate ΔTs06 steadily maintained more than 20% multiple nucleus spores. To test the pathogenesis variation of ΔTs06, an assay of host poplars was applied to evaluate the differences between ΔTs06 and Ts06. After ΔTs06 and Ts06 inoculation, leaves of P. purdomii were used to detect the expression of small secreted proteins (SSPs) and fungal biomasses using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and trypan blue staining. ΔTs06 displayed stronvolved H2O2 may destroy tube proteins of mitosis and meiosis, which could cause abnormal nuclear division and lead to multinucleation, which has a different genotype. Therefore, the multinuclear isolate is different from the wild-type isolate in terms of phenotype and genotype; this multinucleation phenomenon in urediniospores improves the pathogenesis and environmental fitness of M. larici-populina.Lake Magic is an extremely acidic, hypersaline lake found in Western Australia, with the highest concentrations of aluminum and silica in the world. Previous studies of Lake Magic diversity have revealed that the lake hosts acid- and halotolerant bacterial and fungal species. However, they have not canvassed microbial population dynamics across flooding, evapo-concentration and desiccation stages. In this study, we used amplicon sequencing and potential function prediction on sediment and salt mat samples. We observed that the bacterial and fungal diversity in Lake Magic is strongly driven by carbon, temperature, pH and salt concentrations at the different stages of the lake. We also saw that the fungal diversity decreased as the environmental conditions became more extreme. However, prokaryotic diversity was very dynamic and bacteria dominated archaeal species, both in abundance and diversity, perhaps because bacteria better tolerate the extreme variation in conditions. Bacterial species diversity was the highest during early flooding stage and decreased during more stressful conditions. We observed an increase in acid tolerant and halotolerant species in the sediment, involved in functions such as sulfur and iron metabolism, i.e., species involved in buffering the external environment. Thus, due to activity within the microbial community, the environmental conditions in the sediment do not change to the same degree as conditions in the salt mat, resulting in the sediment becoming a safe haven for microbes, which are able to thrive during the extreme conditions of the evapo-concentration and desiccation stages.The host microbiome plays an essential role in health and disease. Microbiome modification by pathogens or probiotics has been poorly explored especially in the case of probiotic yeasts. Next-generation sequencing currently provides the best tools for their characterization. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/at13387.html Debaryomyces hansenii 97 (D. hansenii 97) and Yarrowia lipolytica 242 (Y. lipolytica 242) are yeasts that protect wildtype zebrafish (Danio rerio) larvae against a Vibrio anguillarum (V. anguillarum) infection, increasing their survival rate. We investigate the effect of these microorganisms on the microbiome and neutrophil response (inflammation) in zebrafish larvae line Tg(BacmpxGFP) i114. We postulated that preinoculation of larvae with yeasts would attenuate the intestinal neutrophil response and prevent modification of the larval microbiome induced by the pathogen. Microbiome study was performed by sequencing the V3-V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene and prediction of metabolic pathways by Piphillin in conventionally raised larvae. Survival and the neutrophil response were both evaluated in conventional and germ-free conditions.
