A comparison of DNA- and RNA-based clone libraries from the same marine bacterioplankton community

Abstract: Clones from the same marine bacterioplankton community were sequenced, 100 clones based on DNA (16S rRNA genes) and 100 clones based on RNA (16S rRNA). This bacterioplankton community was dominated by alpha-Proteobacteria in terms of repetitive DNA clones (52%), but gamma-Proteobacteria dominated in terms of repetitive RNA clones (44%). The combined analysis led to a characterization of phylotypes otherwise uncharacterized if only the DNA or RNA libraries would have been analyzed alone. Of the DNA clones, 25.5… Show more

“…Each of these cases can be readily explained-or at least speculated upon (Moeseneder et al, 2005). First, phylotypes from the same sponge species represented in both DNA and RNA libraries are clearly present and-as indicated by the detection of their rRNA-are presumably active as well.…”

“…Activity profiles for marine sponge-associated bacteria J Kamke et al Bacterial 16S rRNA gene vs 16S rRNA comparisons in sponges Earlier studies have successfully used the 16S rRNA gene vs rRNA approach to investigate the activity of, for example, marine plankton, sediment and gas hydrate communities (Moeseneder et al, , 2005Mills et al, 2005;Gentile et al, 2006;RodriguezBlanco et al, 2009 Agelas dilatata clone AD004, EF076125 Tethya aurantium clone TAA-10-101, AM259897…”

“…Even though potential biases can be introduced during DNA and RNA extraction, complementary DNA (cDNA) synthesis, and PCR amplification [12], parallel comparisons of DNA-and RNA-based pyrosequencing approaches can help differentiate whether abundant taxa are active or whether rare but active taxa exist. In addition, stronger evidence on the links between biogeochemical processes and microbial communities might be obtained if active communities are monitored rather than bulk communities [13][14][15][16].…”

“…The importance of focusing not only on the total bacterial community (based on 16S rDNA) but also on the metabolically active fraction (based on 16S rRNA) to evaluate the influence of environmental factors on bacterial populations has been underlined in previous studies (Schafer et al 2001;Troussellier et al 2002;Moeseneder et al 2005;Gentile et al 2006;Lami et al 2009;). To our knowledge, only one study used a combined 16S rDNA/16S rRNA approach to compare dynamics of total versus metabolically active bacterial community structure of hypersaline microbial mats in the context of hydrocarbons pollution (Bordenave et al 2007).…”
