Show moreFlorida is a tropical paradise that attracts marine enthusiasts and seafood lovers from around the world. Its extensive waterways not only offer unique areas for us to explore but also provide essential habitat for marine life. Although you cannot see them, marine bacteria are common throughout Florida waters. Marine bacteria play an important role in environmental processes by breaking down organic matter or providing food for larger organisms. There are many different species of bacteria that live in Florida waters. They are natural inhabitants of marine environments and live in and on many aquatic organisms. Under certain conditions, one type of marine bacteria known as Vibrio is capable of causing wound infections and seafood sickness in people with weakened immune systems.

Creator

Abstract/Description
Under certain conditions, one type of marine bacteria known as Vibrio is capable of causing wound infections and seafood sickness in people with weakened immune systems. Recently, the term “flesh-eating bacteria” has been used to refer to Vibrio. This description is false and misleading and causes unnecessary fear and panic. To ensure that your time on the water is safe and enjoyable, be aware of local hazards and follow these simple safety guidelines.

Abstract/Description
Vibrio have been isolated from the guts and skin of fish from many environments as well as commercial fish products, however it is unknown if these pathogens naturally exist in the meat of foodfish. This study first investigated the association of Vibrio with Mangrove Snapper collected from the Indian River Lagoon to determine if its presence in their meat is natural or a product of contamination.

This study first investigated the association of Vibrio with Mangrove Snapper collected from the Indian River Lagoon to determine if its presence in their meat is natural or a product of contamination. The second part of this study was to identify Vibrio reservoirs within Mangrove Snapper to better understand how they can contaminate the meat during the filleting process. In addition, the effects of temperature abuse (a common food handling issue) and its duration, on Vibrio abundance, were also tested.

EFFECTS OF NATURAL AND ANTHROPOGENIC IMPACTS ON THE MICROBIOME OF THE INDIAN RIVER LAGOON, FL, USA.
Creator

Abstract/Description
The Indian River Lagoon (IRL) FL, USA, is an Estuary of National Significance due to its economic and high biodiversity. Microbial populations are understudied in the IRL despite their numerous ecological services. A two-year, nineteen-site Lagoon-Wide Survey (LWS) was conducted to provide the first 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing data on the microbiome of the sediment in the IRL and determine how the microbiome changed in response to environmental and anthropogenic factors.

Show moreThe Indian River Lagoon (IRL) FL, USA, is an Estuary of National Significance due to its economic and high biodiversity. Microbial populations are understudied in the IRL despite their numerous ecological services. A two-year, nineteen-site Lagoon-Wide Survey (LWS) was conducted to provide the first 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing data on the microbiome of the sediment in the IRL and determine how the microbiome changed in response to environmental and anthropogenic factors. The most influential variables that explained the variability between microbiomes were porewater salinity, total organic matter (TOM), and copper (Cu). These results correlated with some of the anthropogenic pressures the IRL faces such as freshwater discharges from St. Lucie Estuary (SLE), trace metal contamination, and the accumulation of fine-grained, highly organic sediment known as “IRL muck” (muck). Research then focused on determining the microbial differences between three sets of sample types: sediment from the IRL versus the SLE; sediment that had three muck characteristics versus those with zero; and high TOM sediment that had high Cu versus high TOM sediment that had low Cu. Differentially abundant prokaryotes between sample types were determined with novel indicator analysis techniques. One technique tested the effectiveness of an indicator list to separate samples based upon the product of the sensitivity and specificity of partitioning around medoids clustering in comparison to metadata classifications. The other technique allowed for the tracking of changes in the entire indicator microbiome. These new indicator analysis techniques were created using the original LWS data and tested to determine how sediment microbiomes responded during two opportunistic surveys: dredging of muck from an IRL tributary (Eau Gallie River) and Hurricane Irma. These studies have filled the knowledge gap regarding the unknown microbiome of the IRL and how sediment microbiomes respond to extreme events such as dredging and a hurricane. They also led to the development of new indicator analysis techniques that can be used by to track changes in the entire indicator microbiome.
