RT02 - CAMI: Critical assessment of metagenome
interpretation

In silico analysis, design, and simulations of natural and engineered consortia
Hyun Seob Song , PNNL, USA
Description: The interpretation of metagenomes relies on sophisticated computational
approaches such as read assembly, binning and taxonomic classification.
All subsequent analyses can only be as meaningful as the outcome of these
initial data processing methods. Tremendous progress has been achieved
during the last years. However, none of these approaches can completely
recover the complex information encoded in metagenomes. Simplifying
assumptions are needed and lead to strong limitations and potential
inaccuracies in their practical use.
The accuracy of computational methods in metagenomics has so far
been evaluated in publications presenting novel or improved methods.
However, these snapshots are difficult to comparable due to the lack
of a general standard for the assessment of computational methods
in metagenomics. Users are thus not well informed about general
and specific limitations of computational methods. This may result in
misinterpretations of computational predictions. Furthermore, method
developers need to individually evaluate existing approaches in order to
come up with ideas and concepts for improvements and new algorithms.
This consumes substantial time and computational resources, and may
introduce unintended biases.
We suggest tackling this problem by a new initiative, aiming at the
“Critical Assessment of Metagenome Interpretation” (CAMI). It should
evaluate methods in metagenomics independently, comprehensively
and without bias. The initiative should supply users with exhaustive
quantitative data about the performance of methods in all relevant
scenarios. It will therefore guide users in the selection and application of
methods and in their proper interpretation. Furthermore it will provide
valuable information to developers, allowing them to identify promising
directions for their future work.

RT01 - Engineering Microbial Consortia for Controllable
Outputs
Description: Although much research has been invested into engineering
microorganisms to perform desired biotransformations, these efforts
frequently fall short of expected results due to the unforeseen effects
of biofeedback regulation and metabolic incompatibility in mixed
cultures. In nature, metabolic function is compartmentalized into diverse
organisms assembled into resilient consortia, in which labor division
is thought to lead to increased community efficiency and productivity.
In this roundtable session, we consider whether and how consortia can
be designed to perform bioprocesses of interest beyond the metabolic
flexibility limitations of a single organism.
The post-genomic era has enabled the use of global measurements (e.g.,
transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics) to quantitate the response
of individual microbes within communities to environmental stimuli.
However, in order to engineer consortia with the desired properties, we
need to understand the fundamental principles that govern both structural
and functional dynamics in complex associations as a function of
environmental variables. Equally important is elucidation and quantitation
of the means by which metabolic exchange and other interspecies
interactions occur within consortia thus contributing to gains in higherorder community properties (e.g., resilience, efficiency). When combined
with appropriate modeling framework that generates testable hypotheses
and orthogonal synthetic biology tools (e.g., tunable genetic circuits and
regulatory networks), such understanding can dramatically improve our
ability to control the fate and functioning of consortia via programmable
interactions (e.g., metabolite exchange, functional complementation). This
session will feature cutting-edge research using both natural and synthetic
systems to identify the important design principles that will allow the
construction and/or management of microbial consortia to more efficiently
and resiliently perform desired functions.

RT04 - Enzymes to oil fields; fundamental science and practical
implications of anaerobic hydrocarbon degradation
Chairperson: Søren J. Sørensen, University of Copenhagen, Denmark
Chairpersons: Rainer U. Meckenstock, Institute of Groundwater
Ecology, Helmholtz Zentrum, München, Germany
Ian M. Head, School of Civil Engineering and
Geosciences, Newcastle University, UK
Many relevant topics are to be addressed in order to understand the
ecology of multispecies biofilms: How are the bacteria organized and
does this pattern reflect the function or resistance of the biofilm? What
are the molecular mechanisms mediating interspecies interactions and
how do they affect gene expression? The many technical advances
have improved our ability to study complex communities such as
multispecies biofilms, but how do we sample these, adapt the methods
and interpret the results? The suggested roundtable speakers have been
selected to address these and many other outstanding questions within
this growing area of research.

molecular level

Description: Anaerobic hydrocarbon degradation has a multitude of dimensions.
Novel biochemistry has been discovered that permits microorganisms
to activate chemically stable hydrocarbons in the absence of molecular
oxygen. New anaerobic hydrocarbon-degrading organisms and
consortia are steadily being uncovered but there remain challenges
in e.g. unequivocally revealing the central syntrophic partners in
methanogenic hydrocarbon-degrading consortia. The importance of
electrical interactions in anaerobic hydrocarbon degradation has also
emerged as an exciting new element in microbial ecology of anaerobic
hydrocarbon degradation. Nevertheless, in many cases it’s still unclear
when and why such process takes place or not.
The purpose of this roundtable is to:
* Establish the state of the art in understanding anaerobic hydrocarbondegrading systems
* To identify generic limitations or triggers for anaerobic hydrocarbon
degradation
* Identify how knowledge of the fundamental ecology and biochemistry
of these systems can be best harnessed for:
a. Development of approaches to better predict the fate and
persistence of hydrocarbons in anoxic systems
b. Develop new biological processes for energy recovery

RT03 - Multispecies bacterial biofilm – the multicellular
microbial organism?
Description: The focus of this roundtable session will be on the spatial bacterial
organization and interspecies interactions in multispecies biofilms.
Research in biofilms has in recent years shifted focus towards the more
ecologically relevant multispecies biofilms and the consequences of
their interactions on the species present and the surroundings. Various
studies have now confirmed that interspecies interactions often cause
a functional change of the biofilm, enhancing a function or product.
This is a clear indication of multispecies biofilm being different and
more complex than monospecies biofilms and direct extrapolations of
results obtained from monoculture lab experiments to complex natural
biofilms are therefore imprecise and sometimes misleading. Instead, it
is now time to focus on studying the multispecies biofilm as a single
unit in order to obtain a complete understanding of the consequences of
bacterial species interaction when residing closely together in biofilms.

Greg Caporaso , Northern Arizona University, USA
Description: Microfluidics is an area of research in which small volumes of fluids are
handled. Use of microfluidics enables us to analyze single molecules or
cells; therefore, this technology has a great potential to study microbial
physiology, ecology, and evolution. In the past, we need to design and
assemble microfluidics devices by ourselves to meet the purpose of
our study. Nowadays, several microfluidics devices are commercially
available for various applications: to detect single molecules (e.g. digital
PCR), to quantify multiple genes simultaneously, to prepare libraries
for next generation sequencing, and to capture single cells to perform
genome and transcriptome sequencing. Thus, this technology became
closer to us.
In this session, we will discuss how microfluidics can be designed and
applied to study microbial ecology. The speakers who have successfully
applied microfluidics to solve their scientific questions will share their
experiences with the audiences.

RT05 - Is bigger better? Advice as Metagenomes Grow
Description: Many of the promises of metagenomics will come to fruition as we
collect increasing volumes of metagenomic data. This roundtable is
targeted for investigators who are interested in current metagenomic
analysis approaches as well as the challenges associated with
metagenomic data. We will present a summary of tools used by leaders
in the field, specifically, approaches towards analyzing complex datasets,
datasets with multiple replicates, and datasets leveraging publicly
available/global datasets. A broad of array of strategies including data
scaling, statistics, and visualization will be discussed. This roundtable
is aimed towards those interested in leveraging metagenomic data as
well as those currently producing and interpreting metagenomes. It
will include lightning talks from six diverse speakers who will present
their advice for metagenomic studies and discuss their perspectives on
the challenges and future of metagenomics. These talks will launch a
discussion amongst both participants and speakers focused on enabling
improved investigations in this field. Though broad methods will
naturally be discussed at this roundtable, it will not be a methods-based
session but rather a discussion on best practices going forward. Some
discussion points may include: How do we deal with poorly replicated
data? When is metagenomics worth the investment? What are the
assumptions you must or must not make during analysis? How much
data do I need?

RT07 - Microbial ecosystem in the aquaculture environments
Chairpersons: Shiu-Mei Liu, National Taiwan Ocean University,
Taiwan
Shir-ly Huang, National Central University, Taiwan
Description: Aquaculture practice, especially intensive one not only produces
considerable amount of particulate and soluble organic wastes, such as
feces and uningested feed, which may negatively affect the environment
(Mc Caig et al., 1999; Thoman et al., 2001), but also discharges a large
portion of antibiotics which have been used as veterinary medications to
treat or prevent diseases of aquacultured organisms, which may lead to
residues in the surrounding environment.
The negative impacts of such effluents are greatest in low hydrodynamic
aquatic environments where the high nitrogen and phosphorous content
of effluent may lead to eutrophication and other ecosystem changes
(Thoman et al., 2001; Li et al., 2003).
Effects of antibiotics on ecological functions have also been discovered,
including microbial nitrogen transformation, methanogenesis, and
sulfate reduction in soil and aquatic environment. Add to that the
fact that many of these organisms harbor antibiotic resistance genes,
eventually found in plasmids, transposons and integrons, which are able
to transfer to different bacterial water and soil communities (Baquero et
al., 2008).
Studies are needed to better understand combined effects on microbial
diversity and risks in aquaculture environments, as this activity is
increasingly becoming one of the most profitable commercial activities in
both developed and developing geographical regions around the World
(Resende et al. 2012).

RT08 - The impacts of human activity on dynamics of antibiotic
resistance gene flow in the aquatic environment
Chairpersons: William H. Gaze, University of Exeter Medical School,
UK
Satoru Suzuki, Ehime University, Japan
Description: Increased prevalence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) is a serious
public health issue, identified during the London G8 summit in 2013 as
a top priority requiring action at an international level. We can consider
this problem as resulting from complex interactions between human and
natural environments. One source of ARGs are hospitals, agriculture,
aquaculture, wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) and so on are
also known to be reservoirs of ARGs. These reservoirs are connected
to river catchments and receiving waters. The media, water, can not
only transport bacteria, ARGs and pharmaceutical residues, but also
allows mixing of bacteria from different environments. What are the
impacts of this human activity on aquatic microbial communities? This
roundtable will focus on ARG contamination in aquatic environments.
We will discuss selection for and dissemination of ARGs and their
transfer vehicles in aquatic microbial community with reference to risk
assessment and mitigation strategies.

Scientific Program
Description: Large ecosystems on this planet are difficult to reach places such
as the deep-sea water column, sediments, rocks, and the terrestrial
subsurface. They constitute the most under-investigated and least
known biosphere on Earth, the so called “Deep Biosphere” or “Dark
Energy Biosphere”, since it exists without recent photic inputs. As
the majority of the organisms in the deep biosphere, as revealed by
molecular markers (usually the 16S rRNA gene), are uncultivated
and have no close cultured representatives, the physiology, metabolic
function, and biogeochemical role of these microbes remain largely
unknown. Here, we call for scientists at this roundtable to discuss recent
progress, challenges, and prospects in this field, with particular focus on
multidisciplinary approaches to bridge the gaps in our understanding
of the deep ecosystems. The energy strategies, the adaptations and the
evolution of the deep biosphere will also be discussed.
