    <title>Abstract</title>To improve our understanding of the environmental microbiome, we developed a single-cell genome sequencing platform, named SAG-gel, which utilizes gel beads for single-cell isolation, cell lysis, and whole genome amplification (WGA) for sequencing. SAG-gel enables serial, parallel and independent reactions of &gt; 100,000 single cells in a single tube, delivering high-quality genome recovery with storable randomized single-cell genome libraries. From soil and marine environmental sources, we acquired 734 partial genomes that are recapitulated in 231 species, 35% of which were assigned as high-to-medium qualities. We found that each genome to be almost unique and 98.7% of them were newly identified, implying the complex genetic diversities across 44 phyla. The various metabolic capabilities including virulence factors and biosynthetic gene clusters were found across the lineages at single-cell resolution. This technology will accelerate the accumulation of reference genomes of uncharacterized environmental microbes and provide us new insights for their roles.

    BACKGROUND: The gut microbiota can have dramatic effects on host metabolism; however, current genomic strategies for uncultured bacteria have several limitations that hinder their ability to identify responders to metabolic changes in the microbiota. In this study, we describe a novel single-cell genomic sequencing technique that can identify metabolic responders at the species level without the need for reference genomes, and apply this method to identify bacterial responders to an inulin-based diet in the mouse gut microbiota. RESULTS: Inulin-feeding changed the mouse fecal microbiome composition to increase Bacteroides spp., resulting in the production of abundant succinate in the mouse intestine. Using our massively parallel single-cell genome sequencing technique, named SAG-gel platform, we obtained 346 single-amplified genomes (SAGs) from mouse gut microbes before and after dietary inulin supplementation. After quality control, the SAGs were classified as 267 bacteria, spanning 2 phyla, 4 classes, 7 orders, and 14 families, and 31 different strains of SAGs were graded as high- and medium-quality draft genomes. From these, we have successfully obtained the genomes of the dominant inulin-responders, Bacteroides spp., and identified their polysaccharide utilization loci and their specific metabolic pathways for succinate production. CONCLUSIONS: Our single-cell genomics approach generated a massive amount of SAGs, enabling a functional analysis of uncultured bacteria in the intestinal microbiome. This enabled us to estimate metabolic lineages involved in the bacterial fermentation of dietary fiber and metabolic outcomes such as short-chain fatty acid production in the intestinal environment based on the fibers ingested. The technique allows the in-depth isolation and characterization of uncultured bacteria with specific functions in the microbiota and could be exploited to improve human and animal health.
