AbstractThe “Dual Structure” model on the formation of the modern Japanese population assumes that the indigenous hunter-gathering population (symbolized as Jomon people) admixed with rice-farming population (symbolized as Yayoi people) who migrated from the Asian continent after the Yayoi period started. The Jomon component remained high both in Ainu and Okinawa people who mainly reside in northern and southern Japan, respectively, while the Yayoi component is higher in the mainland Japanese (Yamato people). The model has been well supported by genetic data, but the Yamato population was mostly represented by people from Tokyo area. We generated new genome-wide SNP data using Japonica Array for 45 individuals in Izumo City of Shimane Prefecture and for 72 individuals in Makurazaki City of Kagoshima Prefecture in Southern Kyushu, and compared these data with those of other human populations in East Asia, including BioBank Japan data. Using principal component analysis, phylogenetic network, and f4 tests, we found that Izumo, Makurazaki, and Tohoku populations are slightly differentiated from Kanto (including Tokyo), Tokai, and Kinki regions. These results suggest the substructure within Mainland Japanese maybe caused by multiple migration events from the Asian continent following the Jomon period, and we propose a modified version of “Dual Structure” model called the “Inner-Dual Structure” model.

Bacterium Strain

A novel thermophilic bacterium, strain KW1T, was isolated from a coastal hydrothermal field on the Satsuma Peninsula, Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan. The variably Gram-stained cells were motile rods with flagella, did not form spores and proliferated at 52–78 °C (optimum, 70 °C), pH 5–8 (optimum, pH 7) and 0–4.5 % NaCl (optimum, 1.0 %). The novel isolate was a strictly aerobic heterotroph that utilized complex proteinaceous substrates as well as a variety of carboxylic acids and amino acids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 70.8 mol%. Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain KW1T is closely related to Thermaerobacter subterraneus C21T (98.4 % sequence similarity). However, the DNA–DNA hybridization value for strain KW1T and T. subterraneus ATCC BAA-137T was below 46 %. On the basis of the molecular and physiological traits of strain KW1T, it represents a novel species of the genus Thermaerobacter, for which the name Thermaerobacter litoralis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KW1T (=JCM 13210T=DSM 17372T).
