Summary

We investigated the species diversity of Mycobacteriaceae in surface water samples from six environments at the zoological park in São Paulo, Brazil. Three hundred and eighty isolates were cultivated and identified by phenotypic characteristics (growth rate and pigmentation) and sequencing of hsp65, rpoB and 16S rRNA genes. The results revealed that almost 48% of the isolates could be identified at the species level; about 50% were classified at the genus level, and only less than 2% of the isolates showed an inconclusive identification. The isolates classified at the genus level and not identified were then evaluated by phylogenetic analyses using the same three concatenated target genes. The results allowed us to identify at the genus level some isolates that previously had inconclusive identification, and they also suggested the presence of putative candidate species within the sample, demonstrating that this zoological park is an important source of diversity.

Introduction

A comparative genomic analysis among 150 species of the genus Mycobacterium based on core proteins has shown the existence of distinct monophyletic groups, leading to the division of the genus into five distinctive genera [1,2]. According to this study, the genera of the family Mycobacteriaceae were named Mycobacterium, which includes all of the major human pathogens, namely Mycolicibacterium, Mycolicibacter, Mycolicibacillus and Mycobacteroides, corresponding to the “Fortuitum-Vaccae”, “Terrae”, “Triviale” and “Abscessus-Chelonae” clades, respectively.

Most species of the family Mycobacteriaceae are considered saprophytic microorganisms and inhabitants of several natural environments, such as lakes, rivers, swamps, soils and environments influenced by humans, such as water treatment and distribution systems [37]. Some environmental isolates have raised interest because of their ability to metabolize aliphatic hydrocarbons and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, which are important pollutants [811]. Apart from that, genome analysis of M. brisbanense (UM_WWY) has revealed the presence of genes associated with nitrogen and urea cycles, suggesting that their use in soil may result in the synthesis of urea, favoring plant growth [12].

In Brazil, studies on the diversity of environmental isolates from Mycobacteriaceae are still scarce. Lima-Junior et al. (2016) characterized isolates of Mycobacteriaceae and mycobacteriophages from the compost at São Paulo Zoo and isolated an environmental M. insubricum for the first time [13]. The mycobacteriophage isolates displayed considerable genomic diversity and the phage Madruga showed over 95% similarity with the genome of the phage Patience forming a new assigned cluster U. These data demonstrate the richness of the microbial communities within the composting systems and their potential source for the prospecting of new phage and bacterial isolates. The São Paulo Zoological Park Foundation (FPZSP) has an area of 824,529 m2 of original Atlantic Forest, and besides the composting unit, it has several springs and lakes that shelter captive and free-living animals and migratory birds, a water treatment station and a sewage treatment station.

This work aimed to isolate microorganisms from the family Mycobacteriaceae from six aquatic environments with distinct anthropic and trophic characteristics at the zoo in São Paulo, Brazil. We investigated the diversity of Mycobacteriaceae isolates and found the possible occurrence of putative candidate species among these isolates.

Material and methods

Description of study sites

FPZSP is located in an urban area of the city of São Paulo, and within a remnant area of the Atlantic Forest. Its location is between the parallels 23° 38’ 08” S and 23° 40’ 18” S and the meridians 46°36’48” W and 46°38’00” W. Surface water samples from six environments of FPZSP were studied, which were classified according to the degree of anthropization, color and odor as suggested by Bicudo et al., 2002 [14]. The Bigger Spring (BS) has an area of 3,852 m2, and is odorless and barren; it is an enclosure for five alligators and has little human influence. The Smaller Spring (SS) has a water area of 388 m2 and is clear and odorless; it is located inside a bird enclosure, where it is considered an environment with a medium degree of anthropization. Lake70 (L70) has an area of 34,665 m2 and is an artificial lake with a medium degree of anthropization; it is inhabited by primates and local and migratory birds. A particular feature of this environment is the presence of algae, making the water greenish though odorless. Water samples from the sewage treatment station were also analyzed at two points, the crude sewage (cS) and treated sewage (tS). The sewage treatment station receives water from the animal enclosures and the daily activities of the park, which has a characteristic odor and brownish color. Water from the water treatment station (WTS) was collected shortly after the end of the physical and chemical treatment. WTS treats water from the sewage treatment station and Lake70 on alternate days, generating re-cycled water to wash the animal enclosures and also to restore the water level of Lake70. This study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of UNIFESP and FPZSP under numbers 0082/10 and 263/2009, respectively.

Sample collection

Surface water samples were collected from six different sources every month between November 2011 and October 2012, totaling 72 samples. Using a sterile flask, 1L of water was collected from each site, and for the WTS water the flasks contained 0.01% sodium thiosulfate for neutralization of residual chlorine [15]. The samples were stored and transported at 4°C until processed, which did not exceed three hours.

Processing of water samples

Each sample was totally concentrated under vacuum and filtered with a 0.45-μm nitrocellulose membrane (Millipore) for subsequent decontamination and culture of bacteria belonging to the family Mycobacteriaceae. The water samples from Lake70 were first filtered with a 20-μm mesh phytoplankton net and then with a 8-μm glass microfiber filter (AP20 Millipore), followed by filtration through a 5-μm cellulose ester membrane (Millipore) for the removal of microalgae [1618]. The crude and treated sewage samples were also previously pre-filtered due to a high concentration of organic matter.

After the sample concentration procedure, each membrane was transferred to a sterile tube with 10 mL of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS 1X, pH 7.4) and maintained under vigorous stirring for 30 min. The bacterial suspension was decontaminated with 0.05% cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) and spread on Middlebrook 7H10 medium supplemented with 0.5% glycerol and 10% OADC-oleic acid, albumin, dextrose and catalase (Becton Dickinson) and 10% PANTA (40 U/mL polymyxin, 4 μg/mL amphotericin B, 16 μg/mL nalidixic acid, 4 μg/mL trimethoprim and 4 μg/mL azlocillin) (Becton Dickinson) according to the protocol described by Radomski et al., 2010 [19]. The cultures were incubated at 30°C and examined for 60 days.

Species identification

All recovered colonies were initially visualized under a light microscope (Eclipse E100, Nikon) after Ziehl-Neelsen staining (Renylab, Brazil). Acid-fast bacteria colonies were isolated and identified by evaluation of phenotypic characteristics (growth rate and pigment) and sequences of the hsp65 gene, rpoB gene V region and 16S rRNA gene [2024].

DNA was extracted by thermal lysis, that is suspension of bacterial colonies in 300 μL of sterile MiliQ water and incubation at 95°C for 10 minutes, and 5 μL of the supernatant were used for each PCR. The regions amplified by PCR included a 667 bp fragment of hsp65 gene, containing the fragment described by Telenti, a 752 bp fragment of the V region of rpoB and the complete (1,500 bp) 16S rRNA gene [20,2225]. The amplification and sequencing of region III of rpoB gene performed in cases of doubt in the identification [26]. The amplicons were purified using the QIAquick PCR purification kit (Qiagen), as recommended by the manufacturer and were sequenced in both directions in an ABI Prism 3500xL Sequencer (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA). The primers used for sequencing reactions were the same as those for PCR, except for the sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene, which included the internal primers described by Adékambi & Drancourt (2004) [23].

Nucleotide sequences were edited using the BioNumerics program version 7.6.3 (Applied Maths, Sint-Martens-Latem, Belgium) to generate single consensus sequences, which were later compared with those deposited in the NCBI database (National Center for Biotechnology Information) using the tool BLAST–Basic Local Alignment (URL: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/BLAST). The cut-off points for the analyses of the hsp65, rpoB and 16S rRNA genes were ≥97, ≥98.3 and ≥99%, respectively [22,27,28].

Consensus sequences of rpoB and 16S rRNA gene regions were aligned using Bionumerics 7.6.3 with Fast Algorithm (AppliedMaths, Sint-Martens-Latem, Belgium) and those of hsp65 using Clustal W 1.6 [29], implemented on Mega 7.0 [30]. Alignments of coding regions (hsp65 and rpoB) were translated into amino acids using the program Se-Al v.2.0a11 (http://tree.bio.ed.ac.uk/software/seal) to verify the presence of unexpected stop-codons. One representative of each sequence obtained from the hsp65, rpoB and 16S rRNA genes were deposited in GenBank under accession numbers KP768386, KP768387, KR779718, MK876855-MK877231; MK879838-MK879916; KP768388, KP768389, KR779819, and MK890454-890532.

Phylogenetic analysis

The isolates identified at the genus level according to Gupta et al, (2018) [1] along with unidentified isolates and 86 sequences of described Mycobacteriaceae species downloaded from GenBank (S1 Table) were used in the phylogenetic analyses. The species Corynebacterium afermentans DSM 44280 (NZ_FTMH00000000.1), Nocardia abscessus DSM44557 (JN041731.1; JN215598.1; JN041494.1) and Tsukamurella paurometabola NCTC13232 (NZ_UHIQ00000000.1) were selected as outgroups.

Phylogenetic analyses were performed using a concatenated dataset of 2,511 bp from the two fragments of the coding gene regions of hsp65 and rpoB and the ribosomal 16S rRNA gene. Prior to analyses, models of substitution for each gene region and the concatenated dataset were selected using jModelTest v.2.1.6 [31], according to Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) as implemented at CIPRES Science Gateway (https://www.phylo.org/).

Phylogenetic analyses were carried out using both maximum-likelihood (ML) and bayesian inference (BI). The tree search under the ML criterion was performed in PAUP v.4.0 with 20 replicates of random stepwise addition under tree-bisection-reconnection (TBR) [32]. BI analyses were conducted in MRBAYES v.3.2.2 [33] implemented at CIPRES Science Gateway (https://www.phylo.org/), with two independent searches of 107 generations each, sampling every 1000 generations, and with four Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) runs. We assessed convergence between runs using Tracer v1.6 [34] and discarded the first 20% trees as burn-in.

Node support in resulting nodes on ML tree was evaluated by 200 non-parametric bootstrap analyses and by posterior probability values the BI topology [35]. Nodes with bootstrap proportions (BP) ≥ 70% ([36]; with caveats) on the ML tree and those with posterior values (PP) ≥ 0.95 on BI tree were considered as evidence of supported clades [33]. Trees were edited in the program FigTree 1.3.1. (http://tree.bio.ed.ac.uk/).

Analysis of the diversity of species

The species diversity in each environment studied was analyzed by the Shannon-Wiener index (H’) [37]. This index determines the alpha (α) diversity of a local community providing values that allow the comparison of diversity between the different sites sampled.

Results

Identification of isolates

Among the 72 water samples analyzed, 56 (77.7%) showed growth of Mycobacteriaceae totaling 380 isolates. A total of 237 isolates were collected from the effluents, 92 from Lake70, 45 from the springs and 6 from the water treatment station, Fig 1.

Most of the isolates (314, 82.6%), were recovered during the months of November to May, corresponding to the period of higher temperatures in Brazil, Fig 1. According to the phenotypic classification, 347 isolates (91.3%) displayed rapid growth and 33 (8.7%) slow growth. Regarding pigmentation, 214 (56.3%) isolates were classified as achromogenic and 166 (43.7%) as chromogenic.

Initially, the identification was performed by sequencing a 401 bp fragment of hps65 gene for all isolates, and the results were analyzed together with phenotypic characteristics. All sequences were deposited in GenBank as described in the Material and Methods section. Thus, it was possible to identify 140 isolates (36.8%) corresponding to the species Mycobacteroides chelonae, Mycobacterium gordonae, Mycobacterium parascrofulaceum, Mycobacterium lentiflavum, Mycobacterium kansasii, Mycolicibacter arupensis, Mycolicibacterium insubricum and Mycolicibacterium austroafricanum/M. vanbaalenii. In addition, these results allowed us to classify the other 240 isolates (63.2%) as belonging to the genera Mycobacterium, Mycobacteroides, Mycolicibacterium and Mycolicibacter and also to separate them into 78 groups, Fig 2.

Similarity dendrogram was based on the multiple alignment matrix of the hsp65 gene sequences using the UPGMA method. In the first column are the isolates randomly selected to be analyzed by sequencing the 16S rRNA and rpoB genes. Column 2: Number of isolates included in each group. Column 3: Result of the comparison of the hsp65 gene sequences of isolates with sequences deposited in the GenBank database with their percentages of identity. Column 4: GenBank accession number of each sequence.

To further identify these isolates, at least one representative of each group was randomly selected and then sequenced for the 16S rRNA and rpoB genes.

The analysis of the three targets allowed us to identify 11.1% more isolates to the species level, namely: Mycobacteroides abscessus subsp. bolletii, Mycolicibacterium bacteremicum, Mycolicibacterium brisbanense¸ Mycolicibacterium fluoranthenivorans, Mycolicibacterium fortuitum, Mycolicibacterium mucogenicum, Mycolicibacterium neoaurum, Mycolicibacterium phocaicum, Mycolicibacterium septicum, Mycolicibacter kumamotonensis and Mycobacterium marseillense. Thus, at the end of the identification stage, 182 (47.9%) isolates were identified at the species level, 191 (50.3%), clustered in 55 groups, were classified at the genus level, while seven isolates (1.8%), clustered in 6 groups, showed identity with sequences of species belonging to different genera, so their identification was considered inconclusive, Table 1.

The species Mycobacterium gordonae, Mycolicibacterium insubricum and Mycobacteroides chelonae were the most prevalent, representing between 11 and 7.9% of the isolates identified. The species Mycobacterium parascrofulaceum, Mycolicibacterium mucogenicum, Mycobacterium kansasii, Mycolicibacter arupensis, Mycolicibacterium austroafricanum/vanbaalenii, Mycolicibacterium fluoranthenivorans, Mycolicibacterium neoaurum, Mycolicibacterium brisbanense, Mycolicibacterium bacteremicum, Mycolicibacterium septicum, Mycobacteroides abscessus subsp. bolletti, Mycobacterium lentiflavum, Mycobacterium marseillense and Mycolicibacter kumamotonsensis were also found in the samples analyzed and represented between 3.7 and 0.3% of the total isolates. Mycolicibacterium was the most prevalent genus, followed by Mycolicibacter and Mycobacterium.

A more detailed analysis of the isolates from Lake70 revealed that 36 of the 49 isolates were recovered in November and December 2011. They were initially identified as Mycolicibacterium komossense, because they showed pigment, rapid growth and sequence identity of 100 and 98.7% with hsp65 and 16S rRNA genes of that species (AY438649.1; NR026086.1), respectively. The sequence of rpoBV gene of M. komossense was not available in databases, and thus, rpoB region III sequencing was performed here (Genbank accession number MK907678), which showed 93.9 and 98.2% identity with the sequences of M. komossense (AY544936.1) and Mycolicibacterium parafortuitum (AY544952.1), raising doubts about their identification.

Phylogenetic analysis

The phylogenetic analyses were conducted on a concatenated dataset of sequences from three genes (hsp65, rpoB and ribosomal 16S rRNA), comprising 2,511 bp of 152 members of Mycobacteriaceae that included 60 isolates (representing 55 groups classified at the genus level), six isolates with inconclusive identification and 86 sequences from known species (S1 Table) analyzed with both ML and BI methods. Groups with more than 15 isolates had more than one isolate analyzed.

ML analysis was conducted under the GTR (general time-reversible) model of evolution, with rate of variable sites (gamma = 0.547) and the proportion of invariant sites (I = 0.545), and generated 3 equally likely trees, from which we produced a semi-strict consensus tree (Lnl = 36046.26; Fig 3). BI analysis (hsp65: GTR+I+G; rpoB: TIM1+G; 16S rRNA: TIM3+I+G) produced a very similar topology as the ML consensus tree (S1 Fig).

Values above branches are bootstrap proportions (≥70%) and those in parenthesis after the terminal names refer to number of isolates belonging to each group. * Groups with more than one isolate studied by phylogenetic analysis.

These phylogenetic analyses allowed us to identify at the genus level some isolates whose identification was previously considered inconclusive, such as MYC270 belonging to Mycolicibacter and isolates MYC252, MY011, MYC284, MYC248 and MYC244 attributed to the genus Mycolicibacterium (Fig 3 and S1 Fig).

Herein, we focused our attention on groups of isolates of the genera Mycolicibacter and Mycobacterium, which may contain potentially candidate species. Within the genus Mycolicibacter, some isolates were grouped closely related to sequences of known species: MYC028 to Mycolicibacter icosiumassiliensis (BP = 84, PP = 0.88), MYC182 to Mycolicibacter virginiensis (BP = 73, PP = 0.76), and MYC224 to Mycolicibacter longobardus, (BP = 97, PP = 1.0), with strong support, especially with the ML method (bootstrap proportions). Regarding isolates MYC049 and MYC375, both ML and BI methods uncovered different relationships between them and other known species, some without support.

Contrarily, ten isolates placed in the genus Mycolicibacter were recovered in distinct phylogenetic groups and more distantly related to those sequences of known species. For instance, the isolate MYC098 was recovered externally to a major group that contains seven known species and eight isolates (BP = 99; PP = 0.99; Fig 3 and S1 Fig). Next in the topology, the highly supported sister group MYC334+MYC340 (BP = 100; PP = 0.99) was placed. Externally, the clade containing (MYC187+ MYC270) with MYC191 as its sister taxon (BP = 100; PP = 1.0) was recovered. Following all these clades, a major clade was recovered (BP = 100; PP = 1.0) grouping MYC101 and MYC123 (BP = 100; PP = 1.0) with MYC017 (BP<50; PP = 0.73) as its sister group, and isolate MYC074 placed basal to them (BP = 100; PP = 0.99).

Within the genus Mycobacterium, MYC170 was recovered as sister to Mycobacterium angelicum (BP = 100; PP = 0.99), while MYC161 grouped with Mycobacterium saskatchewanense (BP = 81; PP = 0.84; Fig 3 and S1 Fig). As a distinct group, both ML and BI methods recovered a clade formed by (MYC070+MYC233; BP = 73, PP = 0.74) with MYC141 sister to them (BP = 100; PP = 1.0).

Additionally, we mention that within the genus Mycolicibacterium our phylogenetic analyses recovered a well-supported major clade containing five isolates (MYC015+MYC035+MYC354) and (MYC342+MYC355), the last being placed as sister to the M. septicum species (BP = 81; PP = 0.796; Fig 3 and S1 Fig).

Analysis of bacterial diversity

After the identification of the isolates, it was possible to evaluate the bacterial diversity by origin. The values of α diversity found were: 3.28 for crude sewage (cS), 2.73 for treated sewage (tS), 2.31 for Lake70 (L70) and 1.7, 1.65 and 1.25 for Bigger Spring (BS), Smaller Spring (SS) and the water treatment station (WTS), respectively. These results revealed that the cS, tS and L70 environments had higher diversity than the others investigated.

Discussion

In the last decades, we have observed an increase in Mycobacteriaceae species described. This study aimed to determine the diversity of these bacteria in water samples in a zoological park during a period of twelve months.

Most of the isolates were recovered during the warmest period of the year and also from eutrophic environments, in accordance with data already described in other studies [3841].

Using an approach associated with sequencing three genes and phenotypic characteristics, we were able to characterize almost 48% of the isolates at the species level and 50.3% at the genus level. Several studies have described that analyses based on concatenated housekeeping genes support the clustering of most species in well-defined phylogenetic groups and emphasize the importance of including also data on growth rate and pigmentation of colonies [1,23,4246].

M. fluoranthenivorans DSM44556, M. vanbaalenii-PYR1 and M. neoaurum NRRL B-3805 were isolated from the environment by screening tests and later characterized as sterol, hydrocarbon and aflatoxin B degraders, indicating potential biotechnological application [4749]. Among the species identified herein, there are saprophytic and potentially pathogenic ones and also species previously described as having biotechnological potential. In addition, it was possible to isolate M. bacteremicum, a species involved in cases of catheter-related sepsis, in samples from the sewage treatment plant, where this is the first report of isolation of this species from water samples [50]. A curious finding is that the isolates identified as M. komossense were prevalent in Lake70 only during the months of November and December. These isolates exhibited more similarity to M. parafortuitum than to M. komossense on the basis of the region III of rpoB gene sequence. Kim and colleagues (2013) reported the horizontal transfer of the rpoB gene from M. parascrofulaceum to Mycobacterium yongonense [51]. A horizontal gene transfer event may have occurred in the isolates of this study, and it is a hypothesis that would explain our results.

Our study showed that all analyzed aquatic environments at the zoo presented several species of Mycobacteriaceae and, many of them might have been characterized at genus level without conclusive species identification, possibly belonging to new taxa. Some studies have demonstrated that inconclusive results after the analysis of several genes are indicative of putative new species and also point to the importance of a phylogenetic approach to achieve this conclusion [50,5254].

The results of our phylogenetic analyses based on three concatenated target genes confirmed the identity of isolates at the genus level. Also, this allowed us to verify the relationships within the Mycolicibacterium and Mycobacterium clades, as isolates MYC028, MYC182 and MYC224 are closely related to M. icosiumassiliensis, M. virginiensis and M. longobardus, and MYC170 and MYC161 recovered closely to M. angelicum and M. saskatchewanense, respectively. Besides, among the isolates with inconclusive identification, the ML and BI phylogenies made it possible to recognize one isolate as belonging to the genus Mycolicibacter and to attribute six others to the genus Mycobacterium, confirming the value of inferring phylogenetic relationships for more accurate identification of Mycobateriaceae. The present work suggests the presence of putative candidate species.

Some studies on microbial diversity use metagenome analyses since they consider that cultivation approaches provide a limited view on bacterial diversity [41,55]. However, the analysis of gut microbiota based on different cultivation conditions (microbial culturomics) has allowed the isolation and description of unknown species within the human intestine, reinforcing the importance of studies supported by bacterial culture [5658]. In this work, we demonstrated the possibility of using decontamination and cultivation methods to recover environmental isolates representing species diversity in the family Mycobacteriaceae. Isolation of bacteria presents the advantage of having the live isolates, and not only their sequences, for genetic, physiological, taxonomic studies and biotechnological applications.
