Microbiome tests - What's good, what's bad?

Recommended Posts

I pulled these lists from a couple of the papers I've come across to make it easier to identify which way my tests are going.  They list the some of the classes and orders of microbial stuff according to their associations with different sources of Dissolved Organic Carbon (DOC "carbon dosing").

From the paper "Global Microbialization of Coral Reefs" Fig. 3 

These microbial order/families were enriched with algae cover on reefs.
Cytophagaceae
Flavobacteriaceae
Planctomycetaceae
Burkholderiaceae
Pasteurellaceae
Synechococcus
Prochlorococcus
Brucellaceae
Vibrionaceae
Enterobacteriaceae


These microbial orders/families were enriched with coral cover on reefs.
Shewanellaceae
Bacillaceae
Caulobacteriaceae
Sphingomonadaceae
Hyphomonadaceae
Bradyrhizobiaceae
Acetobacteriaceae
Phyllobacteriaceae
Clostridiaceae
Rhodospirillaceae
SAR11
Rhizobiaceae
Rhodobacteriaceae


From the paper "Coral and macroalgal exudates vary in neutral sugar composition and differentially enrich reef bacterioplankton lineages" Fig. 2
 

These phyla were more elevated in ambiant and control samples
Chloroflexi_SAR202
Deltaproteobacteria_SAR324

Alphaproteobacteria_SAR116
Alphaproteobacteria_SAR11
Cynobacteria_Synechococcus
Gammaproteobacteria_Oleiphilaceae
Betaproteobacteria_Methylophilaceae

These phyla were elevated in coral exudates (sugars)
Plantomycetes_OM190
Deltaproteobacteria_Bacteriovoraceae
Alphaproteobacteria_Erythrobacteraceae
Alphaproteobacteria_Kordiimaonadaceae
Alphaproteobacteria_Hyphomonadaceae
Alphaproteobacteria_Sneathiellaceae


These phyla were elevated in algal exudates (sugars)
Alphaproteobacteria_Rhodobacteraceae
Flavobacteria_Flavobacteriaceae
Flavobacteria_Crymorphaceae
Gammaproteobacteria_OMG
Gammaproteobacteria_Alteromonadaceae
Gammaproteobacteria_Oceanospirillaceae
Gammaproteobacteria_Pseudoalteromonadaceae
Gammaproteobacteria__Virbrionaceae

I guess this qualifies as "what makes it more complicated", as if it's not already complicated enough.   Here's a paper looking at daily fluctuations in microbial populations.

 

Diel population and functional synchrony of microbial communities on coral reefs

Here's one of the tables from hte paper showing daily changes in various parameters and variables:
