3 Phylogeny study of evoluhonary relatedness among groups of organisms (e.g. species, populahons), which is discovered through molecular sequencing data and morphological data matrices tree represents a hypothesis of the order in which evoluhonary events are assumed to have occurred

17 SEQUENCING OF MICROORGANISMS Data Summary Complete Draf Totals Bacteria Archaea Viruses Totals

18 SMALL SUBUNIT rrna SEQUENCING Bacteria = 16S (eucaryotes = 18S) copies/cell IdenHfy culturable and non- culturable microorganisms in sample Less expensive than standard microbiological methods and faster Gene encoding SSU rrna is sequenced

19 16S rrna SEQUENCING 1 approach AmplificaHon of DNA by PCR DNA primers recognize conserved region of 16S rrna on the DNA genome generate segment of 16SrRNA gene by PCR Variants of PCR, such as RAPD (randomly amplified polymorphic DNA) uses random mix of six base long primers idenhfies even different strains of same species Sequence PCR fragment and compare with extensive database from ~10,000 species

20 Biochemical Diversity A ClassificaHon Scheme for Life redox * * * *

21 Diversity: Another Schema ClassificaLon Carbon Source Energy Source Electron Donors Photoautotrophs CO 2 Light H 2 O, H 2 S, S, other inorganic compounds Photoheterotrophs Organic compounds Light Chemoautotrophs CO 2 OxidaHon- reduchon reachons Chemoheterotrophs Organic compounds OxidaHon- reduchon reachons Organic compounds Inorganic compounds: H 2, H 2 S, NH 4+, NO 2-, Fe 2+, Mn 2+ Glucose, etc Examples cyanobacteria photosynthehc bacteria Nonsulfur purple bacteria Bacteria : nitrifying, hydrogen, sulfur and iron most microorganisms Note that classification schema are different. ASSIGNMENT: BUILD A TABLE WITH ALL CHARACTERISTICS

22 DIVERSITY EXAMPLE 1 E.coli: Energy from fermentahon or respirahon. RespiraHon Aerobic using - O 2 as final electron acceptor - or Anaerobic, using NO 3 or fumarate as a terminal electron acceptor. Carbon source: uses glucose or lactose and makes all the necessary amino acids, vitamins and nucleohdes

23 DIVERSITY EXAMPLE 2 Rhodospirillum rubrum: Same as E. coli and grows by photoautotrophic, photoheterotrophic or lithotrophic means as long as biohn is in its growth media.
