Is there a limit to the extent of the rare (soil) biosphere?
Complete sequencing of the soil metagenome: An attainable utopia?
Pascal Simonet

Number of bacterial cells: 2.6x1029

Gans et al., 2005DNA reassociation method 107 microbial species per gram of soil (predicted).

Rare biosphere.
Analysis of species distribution patterns usually indicates that while a significant fraction of bacterial biomass belongs to a relatively small number of species, the majority of bacterial species within a complex microbial community are present in extremely low numbers.

Role of the rare biosphere ?
•Genes can be strongly expressed (numerous examples in the literature)
•Rare taxa can become dominant when environmental conditions change
•Rare taxa are a reservoir of transferable genetic information

Novelty and Uniqueness Patterns of Rare Members of the Soil Biosphere. Elshahed et al., 2008 AEM: 74: 5422–5428
The rare biosphere and sensitivity of techniques
Threshold between abundant and rare bacteria ??
RARE BACTERIA
Metagenome DNA extraction :
•Soil heterogeneity•In situ lysis•Bacteria extraction (Nycodenz)•Cell lysis•DNA adsorption•DNA degradation
•Cloning bias•PCR bias•Sequencing bias
Rare, protected, lysis recalcitrant bacteria?
The right definition of the « Rare biosphere » in soil ?
Rare bacteria or/and inaccessible bacteria or DNA?
Number of colonies increased with the stringency of the lysis treatment!!
Recovery of added lambda phage DNA?
Max. recovery: 25% Most treatments and soils: less than 10%
The clay soil « A black hole »
What is the rare biosphere ??
DNA extraction: critical bias !!!!
Not only to determine the extent of the rare biosphere but this of bacterial diversity.

Genomics:
“core-genome” : the genes existing in all strains
“dispensable genome” : genes present in two or more strains and genes unique to single strains
“pan-genome” : “core-genome” + “dispensable genome”
Given that the number of unique genes is vast, the pan-genome of a bacterial species might be orders of magnitude larger than any single genome.
13
Core-metagenome : genes existing in all soilsCore-metapopulation : species found in all soils
Pan-metagenome : Core-metagenome + Specific metagenomePan-metapopulation :Core-metapopulation + Specific metapopulation
Specific-metagenome : genes present in two or more soils and genes unique to single soils Specific-metapopulation : species « «« and species « «

Abundant/Rare taxa ? The right question ?
Extent of the Soil Bacterial Diversity
….independently of the species distribution ?
SOIL MICROFLORA
Extent of the soil bacterial diversity?
•Genes can be strongly expressed (numerous examples in the literature)
•Rare (or unavailable) taxa can become dominant (or accessible) when environmental conditions change
•Rare taxa are a reservoir of transferable genetic information

Provide new developing conditions to soil bacterial communities
Congo: Black PointKenya: EmbuMartinique New Caledonia
CSA
Brévil Talmont St-Hilaire Chinon
Montrond
Nine soils selected
CONCEPTUAL APPROACH
1. Extraction of the 9 bacterial communities
2. Inoculation of each bacterial community into the nine sterilized soils
4. Monitoring of bacterial community structure evolution (direct DNA extraction, PCR and phylochip)
Nycodenz density gradient
3. Incubation at RT for 1 day, 2 months, 6 months
Two questions:
•Are new developing community structures different from the donor ones and from these of the recipient soils?
•Are new taxa detected?
Inoculated Community
Recipient Soil
« inoculated community » stronger effect than « recipient soil »
« Recipient Soils S7 and S9 »: stronger effect
Are new developing community structures different from the original donor one and from the one of the recipient soil?
Yes: With both a recipient soil and an inoculated
community structuring effect.
A bacterial community inoculated into new (sterilized) soils reveals bacteria genera undetected in the original inoculum
Each inoculated community: Extent of the diversity increases when considering the different recipient soils.
Are new taxa detected?

Identification of « Italy » and « Rothamsted » specific bacteria.
(Taxonomic microarrays/454/Illumina)
Extent of the bacterial (soil) diversity / extent of the soil (rare) biosphere?
Combination of conceptual and methodological approaches.
Conceptual approach:
Increase the range of conditions offered to developing communities
Methodological approach:
Phylogenetic microarrays: Limited by the number of probes and specificity /sensitivity of hybridization.
Pyrosequencing approaches required.
Conclusion
Diversity of Bacteria (rare and abundant) : Huge
•Collaboration at the international level
•Focus on one « reference » soil
