Microdiversity and temporal dynamics of marine bacterial dimethylsulfoniopropionate genes

Abstract: Summary Dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) is an abundant organic sulfur metabolite produced by many phytoplankton species and degraded by bacteria via two distinct pathways with climate‐relevant implications. We assessed the diversity and abundance of bacteria possessing these pathways in the context of phytoplankton community composition over a 3‐week time period spanning September–October, 2014 in Monterey Bay, CA. The dmdA gene from the DMSP demethylation pathway dominated the DMSP gene pool and was harbour… Show more

“…The patchy distribution of subclade D/3 in the AW might also indicate that the representative bacterial group (SAR11 clade) consists of many ecotypes with fine‐tuned adaptations to physical and chemical gradients (Carlson et al ., ). The SAR11 clade consists of members highly active in DMSP degradation correlating with haptophyte abundance (including coccolithophores) (Nowinski et al ., ). In this study, subclade D/3 was present in June, when coccolithophores were abundant and DMSPt + DMS concentrations high.…”

“…It is released from phytoplankton into the ambient water and is subsequently degraded by bacteria either via the DMSP cleavage or demethylation pathway (Kiene et al ., ; Moran et al ., ). Diverse taxa of marine bacteria can mediate one or the other, or both processes (Simó, ; Reisch et al ., ; Moran et al ., ; Varaljay et al ., ; Nowinski et al ., ), thereby controlling the fate of dissolved DMSP in the ocean. Genes of the demethylation pathway have been found in 2‐ to about 5‐fold higher abundance than genes of the cleavage pathway in metagenomes obtained from the Global Ocean Survey (Moran et al ., ), at Station ALOHA (Varaljay et al ., ) and Monterey Bay (Nowinski et al ., ).…”

“…However, a recent 51 work has unravelled a higher phylogenetic diversity of microbes carrying the hgcAB genes than 52 previously expected (McDaniel et al, 2020) and this calls for novel analyses of microbial Hg-53 methylation in aquatic environments. 54 55 Recent advances in metagenomics have yielded new insights into the microbial taxonomic and 56 functional diversity in various aquatic ecosystems (e.g., Mehrshad et al, 2016;Haro-Moreno et al, 57 2018; Nowinski et al, 2019). The approach has for example been applied to broadly assess the 58 presence and diversity of genes central to biological Hg cycling in marine systems (Podar et al,59 2015; Gionfriddo et al, 2016;Bowman et al, 2019;Villar et al, 2020).…”
