  1. Summary of the current status of the work of TUM-BO Scientists: Andreas Gattinger, Michael Schloter, Alexandra Hagn (DNA), Ursula Bausenwein (Socioeconomics) Technicians: Franz Buegger (EA-IRMS, GC-IRMS, GC/MS-c-IRMS, plant labelling),Conny Galonska (DNA) Christine Kollerbaur, Benjamin Mehnert (Lipids) Voluntary worker (Environmental Protection): Matthias Weiss (2003-2004), Jens Prescher (2004-2005) Technical University of Munich(at the campus of GSF-Research Center for Environment & Health)Chair of Soil Ecology, D- 85764 Neuherberg

  2. Summary of the current status of the work of TUM-BO 1. Extraction and analysis of phospholipid biomarker in peat (bog) samples (WP 04: D12-D14) 2. Extraction and analysis of DNA in peat (bog) samples (WP 04: D12-D14) 3. Production of 13C/15N labelled plant litter for field experiment (WP 04: D13; WP 05: D19) 4. Socioeconomical appraisal for German peatlands (WP 01: D3)

  3. 1. Extraction and analysis of phospholipid biomarker in peat (bog) samples (W P04: D12-D14)

  4. Side chain analysis of phospholipids biomarker to describe bacterial, eukaryotic and archaeal diversity with particular emphasis on methanogenic archaea and methanotrophic bacteria; the following fractions (biomarker) are analysed: Bacterial & eukaryotic diversityAnalysis of esterlinked fatty acids (PLFA):- saturated (SATFA): Gram-positives, sulfate reducer- monounsaturated (MUFA): Gram- negatives, methanotrophs - polyunsaturated (PUFA): fungi, protozoa Archaeal diversity Analysis of etherlinked isoprenoids (PLEL):- saturated short chain (i20:0): all archaea - saturated long chain (i40:0): all archaea - cyclic long chain (i40:0-cy): Crenarchaeota- unsaturated short chain (i20:1): methanogens

  5. Extraction and analysis of phospholipid biomarker in peat (bog) samples (W P04: D12-D14) From the peat samples investigated within work programme 1, 208 samples were selected for PLFA analysis; from layer 6 and 8 only duplicate samples were analysed to reduce sample amount for PLFA and DNA analysis (59 from Finland (FI), 40 from France (FR), 46 from Switzerland (CH), 43 from Scotland (SCO), 20 from France (FB)) All PLFA samples are prepared 832 (+ 360 from labelling experiment) because of 4 different PLFA fractions, in average 20-30 PLFA compounds per run are to be identified and quantified Problems with GC/MS-c-IRMS system since 4 months, company has not solved the problem yet (GC columns of poor quality, splitting technique unreliable, RF generator of the ion source is unstable, compliance of the peak evaluation software has not been sorted out)

  6. Simultaneous identification and quantification of PLFA/PLEL from environmental samples and their corresponding 12C/13C ratios by GC/MS-C-IRMS 20% of the analyte MS(DSQ) IRMS(DeltaPlusAdvantage) 80% of the analyte

  7. PLEL-derived isoprenoids (2-6 archaeal/methanogenic marker) site comparison site*situation comparison

  8. PLEL-derived isoprenoids (archaeal/methanogenic marker) depth*situation comparison

  9. PLEL-derived isoprenoids (archaeal/methanogenic marker) depth*situation comparison

  10. 2. Extraction and analysis of DNA in peat (bog) samples (W P04: D12-D14)

  11. Reproducability FI-A-3-3

  12. Heterogeneity FI-A-3-2 FI-A-3-1

  13. Heterogeneity FR-A-4-3 FR-A-4-1

  14. Depth profiling FI-A-3-3 FI-A-2-1

  15. Depth profiling CH-A-4-1 CH-A-3-4

  16. Extraction and analysis of DNA in peat (bog) samples (WP 04: D12-D14) • The same 208 peat samples were selected for DNA analysis as for PLFA • From all 208 peat samples DNA was extracted (DNA extraction kit soilBio101 following test analysis with MLURI) • MLURI (Rebekka) received all DNA extracts (apart from FB samples) for fungal community fingerprints • EPFL/UfZ (Antonis) received DNA extracts (only CH samples) for protozoan diversity studies • first DNA analysis by TUM-BO: bacterial communities using 16S primer and subsequent t-RFLP analysis

  17. 4. Socioeconomical appraisal for peatlands in GermanyA. Gattinger, U. Bausenwein & M. Drösler (Uni Bayreuth) • data on peatland distribution, economics on peat production, import/export has been collected • in parallel a German group (among others M. Drösler, University of Bayreuth) is generating a new peatland inventory, as the current data is of poor quality (quite old, patchy, wrong, etc.) • the major focus on the study will be on the political framework in Germany to support sustainable management of peatlands, reports/concepts from 3 of 6 selected German States (peatland area > 2%) on this issues have been received

  26. Socioeconomical appraisal for peatlands in Germany • for us the major task is to review the political framework regarding the sustainable management of peatlands (e.g. reduction of climate-relevant trace gases by converting arable field into extensive pastures/grasslands)
