Abstract
The goal of this research was to use and to validate different quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assays to quantify the pertinent microbial populations in full-scale anaerobic digesters at municipal wastewater treatment facilities. Methanomicrobiales (similar to 40% of Archaea) and Methanosarcinales (similar to 35% of Archaea) were the most dominant methanogenic orders in the mesophilic anaerobic digesters, whereas the Methanobacteriales (similar to 40% of Archaea) were the most common in the thermophilic anaerobic digester. qPCR results were validated via comparisons with profiles of microbial community composition obtained by PCR-amplified 16S rRNA gene sequences. Exceptionally strong linear correlations (P < 10(-10)) were observed when comparing the microbiome profile with the qPCR results for Archaea, Methanomicrobiales, Methanosarcinales, Methanobacteriales, and Methanosarcinacea. In addition, core communities of both Bacteria and Archaea were observed in the mesophilic anaerobic digesters. This research demonstrates that monitoring microbial groups in full-scale anaerobic digesters is feasible via qPCR, providing the prerequisite tools needed to track and to understand microbial population dynamics in anaerobic digesters.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
