摘要 | Gutless tubeworms obtain their nutrition from their bacterial endosymbiotic partners, and the metazoan hosts provide the bacteria with sulfide, carbon dioxide, and molecular oxygen taken up through the plume. At seeps, tubeworms take up sulfide using their posterior end, allowing them to fix carbon dioxide and synthesize organic molecules. Compared to bulk tissue isotope compositions, lipid biomarkers and their compound-specific delta C-13 values of soft tissues allow to assign nutritional modes of endosymbionts and hosts, as well as associations be-tween endosymbionts and the animal host. In this study, the tubeworm Paraescarpia echinospica retrieved from the Haima seeps in the South China Sea (SCS) at approximately 1400 m water depth was analyzed using 16S rRNA, bulk tissue isotopes, lipid biomarkers, and compound-specific delta C-13 values. The Lamellibrachia sp. endo-symbiont, a phylotype of the Gammaproteobacteria, is a bacterium gaining energy from oxidizing sulfur com-pounds (thiotrophic endosymbiont). Further, six phylotypes of Gammaproteobacteria and seven phylotypes of Alphaproteobacteria were identified in the trophosome. High contents of n-C-16:1 omega 7, n-C-18:1 omega 7 fatty acids, and n-C-16:0 and n-C-18:1 omega 7 fatty alcohols were found in the trophosome, and somewhat lower contents in the plume and vestimentum, consistent with the prevalence of thiotrophic endosymbionts in the trophosome. The fatty acids n-C-16:1 omega 7 and n-C-18:1 omega 7 produced by the endosymbionts yielded delta C-13 values ranging from -34 parts per thousand to -30 parts per thousand, reflecting the use of marine dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) rather than DIC derived from anaerobic oxidation of methane. The overall small differences in delta C-13 values (Delta(among tissues) <= 3 parts per thousand) for n-C-16:1 omega 7 and n-C-18:1 omega 7 fatty acids in both symbiont-containing and symbiont-free tissues appear to represent the delta C-13 signatures of the endo-symbionts. Generally, n-C-16:1 omega 7 and n-C-18:1 omega 7 fatty acids should be more C-13-depleted than the respective n-C-16:0, n-C-18:0 fatty acids resulting from desaturation. However, in this study, the saturated n-C-16:0, n-C-18:0 fatty acids in soft tissues were C-13 depleted by 4 parts per thousand-10 parts per thousand compared to the respective n-C-16:1 omega 7 and n-C-18:1 omega 7 fatty acids, sug-gesting complex trophic interactions between P. echinospica, its endosymbionts, other bacteria living in P. echinospica, and the environment. Sterols, yielding the lowest delta C-13 values from-49 parts per thousand to-46 parts per thousand, are inter-preted to be derived from bioconversion of dietary sterols by the animal host. The combination of microbial diversity, bulk tissue isotopes, and lipid biomarkers used here is a valuable approach to evaluate the nutritional associations between symbionts and hosts in chemosymbiosis as well as the diet of the animal host. |
