The concentration of heavy metals in the potato tubers of the basic seed groups examined by the variation of fertilizers, pesticides and the period of cultivation

  • The compost, insecticides, and fungicides used by potato farmers in Bali contain heavy metals Fe, Pb, Cd, and Cr. The purpose of this study was to analyze the impact of the seed group potato cultivation system on the concentration of several heavy metals in potato tubers. Cultivation was carried out in the rainy and dry season with: (1) NPK fertilization, (2) NPK fertilization, insecticide and fungicide spraying, (3) NPK fertilization and compost, and (4) NPK fertilization, compost, insecticide and fungicide spray. Each experimental unit was carried out by 5 farmers as a replication. The variables observed were concentrations of Fe, Pb, Cd, and Cr in the soil, plant parts, and potato tubers. Soil, plant, and potato tuber samples were taken randomly with 5 repetitions from the experimental unit. The Concentrations of Fe, Pb, Cd, and Cr metals in potato plants which are cultivated in the rainy season are on average greater in the amount of metal Fe = 1-21 ppm, Pb = 0.05-3.65 ppm, Cd = 0.01-0.15 ppm, and Cr = 0.02-0.18 ppm of concentrations in plants cultivated in the dry season. The metal content in the root zone of the potato seeds plants were Fe = 120.5 ± 3.2 ppm, Pb = 0.82 ± 0.17 ppm, Cd = 0.4 ± 0.1 ppm, and Cr = 0.59 ± 0, 2 ppm. Metal content in potato tubers were Fe = 0.1-0.3 ppm, Pb = 0.07-0.21 ppm, Cd = 0.03-0.06 ppm, and Cr = 0.03-0.07 ppm, these values are still below the food safety threshold according to WHO. The potato tuber which cultivated is still within safe limits for human consumption, but the spraying of insecticides and fungicides and the use of compost must begin to be limited because it causes an increase in Fe, Pb, Cd, and Cr metals in potato plants amounting 3.53-4.36 ppm, 0.41-0.5 ppm, 0.12-0.15 ppm, and 0.22-0.27 ppm, respectively. Fertilization using chicken manure compost at a dose of 10-20 tons ha-1 is very effective in supporting potato cultivation with the LEISA system. The ability of microbes in the compost to carry out an in-situ bioremediation process on Fe, Pb, Cd, and Cr metals is 49.61-55.60 ppm, 2.59-5.64 ppm, 35.24-52.44 ppm, and 19.68-54.24 ppm, respectively.

    1. Introduction

    Hafnia alvei is a Gram-negative facultatively anaerobic bacillus that belongs to the family Enterobacteriaceae. It is known to be among the Enterobacteriaceaespecies most commonly isolated from vacuum-packed chilled meat samples, raw milk, raw fish and other foods [1,2,3]. H. alvei is also an opportunistic human pathogen involved in various types of nosocomical infections [4,5,6,7]. Though H. alvei isolation from human clinical specimens remains uncommon, development of drug resistance by this species is emerging and it is likely that this organism will gain increasing importance in the future [8]. Moreover, these bacteria have been considered as opportunistic pathogens in several animal species including mammals, fish, insects and birds [4,9,10]. Although some virulence traits have been studied in H. alvei, little is known about the factors that contribute to their pathogenesis within a host, including biofilm formation [11,12,13]. Biofilms can be defined as a structured community of bacterial cells enclosed in a self-produced polymeric matrix and adherent to an inert or living surface. Growth in biofilm enables bacterial populations to survive better in hospital environments, food-processing environments and during host infections, increasing the probability of causing infections. In addition, some antiseptics and disinfectants extensively used in hospitals are ineffective against pathogens growing as biofilms attached to surfaces [14]. Furthermore, biofilm formation has been connected to infections associated with indwelling medical devices, such as central venous or urinary catheters [15]. We recently used the next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies to obtain the complete genome sequence of H. alvei HUMV-5920 isolated from the urine sample from a human patient [16]. The goal of the present study was to analyze the capacity of an H. alvei HUMV-5920 human isolate to form biofilms. Our results confirmed the presence of genes already described for the modulation of multicellular behavior in Salmonella Typhimurium and other Enterobacteriaceae species, but also revealed new aspects of the biofilm formation process. This should contribute to a better understanding of the correlation between adherence capabilities and the pathogenicity of this bacterium.


    2. Materials and Methods


    2.1. Bacterial strains

    The strain used in this study (HUMV-5920) was isolated from the urine sample from a woman at the Hospital Universitario Marqués de Valdecilla in Santander, Spain [16]. The strain was routinely cultured in Luria-Bertani (LB) agar or broth and frozen at -80 °C with 20% glycerol. Strains Salmonella Enteritidis 3934 with rdar, bdar, pdar and saw morphotypes (kindly provided by Dr. Toledo-Arana) were used as positive controls for the different phenotypes.


    2.2. Growth conditions and morphotype identification

    Hafnia alvei was directly streaked on Congo Red (CR) plates, which are LB plates without salt supplemented with CR (40 µg/ml) and Coomassie brilliant blue (20 µg/ml). Colony morphology was assessed on CR plates after growth at 37 °C for 24 h and at 28 °C for 48 h according to the basic morphotypes detected in S. Enteritidis 3934: rdar (expresses curli fimbriae and cellulose), pdar (expresses cellulose), bdar (expresses curli fimbriae) and saw (no expression of curli fimbriae nor cellulose) [17,18]. Indication for cellulose production was obtained when fluorescent colonies were observed under a 366-nm UV light source after growth on calcofluor (fluorescent brightener) plates (LB agar plates with 50 µM calcofluor).


    2.3. Biofilm formation

    Biofilm formation was estimated in 48-well Ubottom polystyrene microtiter plates (Nunc, Thermo Fisher Scientific) by the method of O’Toole and Kolter with some modifications [19]. H. alvei was grown in LB medium for 24 h at 37 °C with shaking (175 rpm), and a 1:1,000 dilution was prepared in PBS (OD620, 0.01). Twenty-five microliters were placed in each well containing 500 µl of culture medium. The microplates were incubated under static conditions for 48 h at 28 °C or 37 °C. Wells containing biofilms were rinsed three times with distilled water (1 ml/well), and stained with 1ml/well of crystal violet (CV) (0.7% [wt/vol] solution; Sigma-Aldrich) for 12 min. Excess stain was removed by three washes with distilled water. Crystal violet was extracted by an ethanol-acetone solution (80:20, vol/vol), and the plates were incubated at RT in an orbital shaker for 1 min at 400 rpm (Thermomixer comfort; Eppendorf) to release the dye into the solution. Then, a sample of 100 µl from each well was transferred to another 96-well flat-bottom plate, and the amount of dye (proportional to the density of adherent cells) was determined at 620 nm using a microplate reader (Multiskan FC; Thermo Fisher). In each experiment, results were corrected for background staining by subtracting the value for crystal violet bound to uninoculated controls. The biofilm assay was performed three times, with duplicates in each assay. To confirm the role of cellulose in the biofilm formation process of the wild-type strain H. alvei HUMV-5920, the biofilm-forming assay was carried out in the presence of 0.1% cellulase (Sigma) as described elsewhere [20]. Biofilm formation was studied also using Tryptic Soy Broth (TSB) and Brain Heart Infusion Broth (BHIB) as culture media.


    2.4. Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM)

    Bacteria were grown in 4-well μ-chamber uncoated slides (Ibidi, Martinsried) without shaking, in presence or absence of 0.1% cellulase (Sigma). The slides were incubated at 37 °C for 48 h. After 48 h, planktonic cells were removed by rinsing with saline (0.85% NaCl) and bacterial viability within biofilms in chambers with or without cellulose was determined by adding 200 ml of the BacLight LIVE/DEAD bacterial viability kit (Molecular Probes Inc.) per well for 25 min. For LIVE/DEAD a 488/561 nm excitation, 500-550/570-620 nm emission filters were used respectively. A series of optical sections were obtained with a Nikon A1R confocal scanning laser microscope. Images were captured at random with a ×20 Plan Apo 0.75 NA objective. Reconstructions of confocal sections were assembled using the NIS-Elements 3.2 software. Z-stacks of confocal images were rendered into 3D mode using the ImageJ software.


    2.5. Sequence analysis of cellulose biosynthesis genes

    Genome-wide comparative and interspecies clustering analyses of protein coding sequences (CDSs) related to cellulose production were performed using a new version of the Conserved Domain Database (CDD) Version 3.15 and UGENE Version 1.24.


    3. Results

    Hafnia alvei strain HUMV-5920 was able to form biofilms in microtiter plates and glass. The amount of biofilm formed in LB or in TSB medium was higher than that of cells grown in BHIB (Figure 1). Interestingly, 28 °C was the most favorable temperature to form biofilms in all culture media under static conditions in comparison with 37 °C.

    Figure 1. Biofilm formation in H. alvei HUMV-5920 in conventional media and polystyrene plates. Biofilm formation on polystyrene surface after 48 h was assessed by crystal violet staining. Each bar indicates the mean values with standard deviations. H. alvei was cultivated in LB (black bars), BHIB (grey bars) or TSB (white bars) at both temperatures.

    Calcofluor binding assays indicate putative production of cellulose in this strain (Figure 2).

    Figure 2. Calcofluor staining of morphotype in H. alvei 5920. Strain HUMV-5920 fluoresced on calcofluor agar plates (left) in comparison with other H. alvei strains from different origin. Morphotype was compared with the phenotype of different mutants of S. Enteritidis 3934 (right). A, B, C and D corresponding to S. Enteritidis 3934 (pdar morphotype), S. Enteritidis 3934 (rdar morphotype), S. Enteritidis 3934 (bdar morphotype) and S. Enteritidis 3934 (saw morphotype) respectively.

    Since calcofluor binding is not absolutely specific for cellulose (a 1,4-β-glucan), we confirmed cellulose production by an enzymatic assay. The presence of cellulase in the media during the biofilm formation process in H. alvei led to a total absence of a visible biofilm in LB medium without salts (Figure 3).

    Similar results were obtained after staining of Hafnia alvei and Salmonella biofilms and processed by CLSM. Our findings also showed that bacterial attachment and biofilm formation can be greatly prevented by cellulase treatment in H. alvei as well as in the rdar morphotype of S. Enteritidis (expresses curli fimbriae and cellulose), whereas pdar (expresses only cellulose) and bdar (expresses only curli fimbriae) were less affected. The saw morphotype (no expression of curli fimbriae nor cellulose) was not significantly affected. Representative CLSM images are shown in Figure 4.

Enteritidis 3934 (pdar, rdar, bdar, and saw morphotypes) after growth on uncoated 4-well chamber slides in presence or absence of cellulase and stained with the LIVE/DEAD viability kit. Live cells are stained green with Syto 9 dye and dead cells are stained red with propidium iodide. Original magnification ×200.

    Genome-wide comparative and interspecies clustering analyses of CDSs related to cellulose production were performed with E. coli and Salmonella enterica, yielding interesting information. The basic structural genomic organization of the cellulose biosynthesis system present on both reference species (operons bcsABZC and bcsEFG) is also present in the H. alvei HUMV-5920 chromosome (Figure 5).

    Figure 5. Comparison of the genomic loci bearing conserved genes related to cellulose production and their background. The displayed operons are from (top to down): Escherichia coli O157:H7 (accession no: NC_002695.1); Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Typhimurium str. LT2 (accession no NCBI: NC_003197.1) and Hafnia alvei HUMV-5920 (accession no: CP015379.1). Products of the core genes of various cellulose synthase operons (protein name and functional annotation) were: BcsA, Cellulose synthase catalytic subunit A; BcsB, Cellulose synthase subunit B (periplasmic); BcsC, Cellulose synthase subunit C, spans periplasm and outer membrane; BcsE, Cellulose synthase cytoplasmic subunit E, binds c-di-GMP; BcsF, Membrane-anchored subunit (1 TM segment); BcsG, Contains 4 TM segments and a periplasmic AlkP domain; BcsR, Likely regulatory subunit; BcsZ, Endo-β-1,4-glucanase (cellulase), periplasmic.

    4. Conclusion

    The ability of opportunistic pathogens to form biofilms is of significant clinical interest, since biofilm formation influences the efficacy of antimicrobial therapy and the outcome of an infection. Moreover, biofilm formation may contribute to the establishment and long-term survival of bacterial pathogens in the hospital environment or in food processing environments [21]. A number of previous studies have shown that the nutrient content of the growth medium influences biofilm development in different organisms. More specifically, environmental factors such as glucose and temperature affect biofilm development in Enterobacteriaceae and other bacteria [22,23]. In this line, we have shown that environmental factors such as temperature affect biofilm development in H. alvei [12,13]. In agreement with our previous reports, low temperature induces high biofilm formation in strain HUMV-5920.

    A four-gene bcsABCD operon involved in cellulose biosynthesis was initially identified in Acetobacter xylinus. An early analysis of the cellulose synthase operons in E. coli and S. enterica indicated the presence of the same bcsA, bcsB, and bcsC genes and two additional genes, yhjQ and bcsZ conforming a new variant, the bcsABZC operon. This locus also contains a divergent operon, bcsEFG, which is also required for cellulose production [24]. All the four proteins in the bcsABZC operon were required for maximal cellulose production in vivo with BcsC involved in exporting the glucan molecules and packing them at the cell surface [24], and all these genes are present in the H. alvei HUMV-5920 chromosome [16]. The production of an extracellular matrix is recognized as a key element in determining the mature biofilm architecture [25,26]. Cellulose production prepares bacteria for surface colonization because it has a high capacity of water retention, mediates cell-cell interactions and cell adherence [27].

    To date, only two other H. alvei genomes have been fully sequenced: strain FB1, from a kind of fish food in Asia [28] and strain FDAARGOS-158 (GenBank sequence CP014031.1) from stool. Our genomic analysis also suggests a high frequency of putative adhesins and toxins produced by Hafnia isolates and also several genes implicated in antimicrobial resistance such as metallo-and beta-lactamases, multidrug export proteins and efflux pumps, and penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) [16]. The genotypic and phenotypic characteristics of Hafnia alvei strains, in particular our clinical isolate, could reflect the organism’s ability to sense and adapt to changes in its environment. Moreover, the genomics of this strain will accelerate research on H. alvei in numerous domains and will provide new insights into the genetic mechanisms responsible for the virulence in this species. These data and recent preoccupant findings on antimicrobial resistance in Hafnia strains [8] claim for further efforts to examine the precise significance of Hafnia strains in the clinical settings.
