Characteristics and Driving Factors of the Aerobic Denitrifying Microbial Community in Baiyangdian Lake, Xiong'an New Area.

ABSTRACT: Here, the ion-exchangeable form of nitrogen (IEF-N), weak-acid extractable form of nitrogen (WAEF-N), strong-alkali extractable form of nitrogen (SAEF-N), strong-oxidant extractable form of nitrogen (SOEF-N), residue nitrogen (Res-N), and total nitrogen (TN) showed spatial differences, and most of the sediment nitrogen fractions exhibited positive correlations in Baiyangdian Lake. High-throughput sequencing analysis revealed that the aerobic denitrification microbial community was composed of proteobacteria (42.04%-99.08%) and unclassified_bacteria (0.92%-57.92%). Moreover, the microbial community exhibited significant differences (R2 = 0.4422, P < 0.05) on the basis of the adonis analysis. T(temperature), Moisture content (MC), sediment total phosphorus (STP), ion-exchangeable form of ammonia (IEF-NH4+-N), weak-acid extractable form of ammonia (WAEF-NH4+-N), weak-acid extractable form of nitrate (WAEF-NO3--N), and strong-alkali extractable form of ammonia (SAEF-NH4+-N) were the dominant environmental factors and explained 11.1%, 8.2%, 10.7%, 6.9%, 9.3%, 8.1%, 10.5%, 7.5%, and 7% variation, respectively, of the total variation in the microbial community. Furthermore, the network analysis showed that symbiotic relationships accounted for a major percentage of the microbial networks. The keystone aerobic denitrifying bacteria belonged to Comamonas, Rhodobacter, Achromobacter, Aeromonas, Azoarcus, Leptothrix_Burkholderiales, Pseudomonas, Thauera, unclassified_Burkholderiales, and unclassified_bacteria. The composition of the keystone aerobic denitrifying microbial community also exhibited significant differences (R2 = 0.4534, P < 0.05) on the basis of the adonis analysis. T, STP, IEF-NH4+-N, ion-exchangeable form of nitrate (IEF-NO3--N), WAEF-NO3--N, SAEF-NH4+-N, and TN were the dominant environmental factors that explained 8.4%, 6.2%, 4.6%, 5.9%, 5.9%, 4.5%, and 9.4% variation, respectively, of the total variation in the keystone aerobic denitrifying microbial community. The systematic investigation could provide a theoretical foundation for the evolution mechanism of the aerobic denitrifying microbial community in Baiyangdian Lake.

Project description:Pinus bungeana is a native but endangered plant species in China, with high ornamental value and adaptability to drought and cold. The relationship between the soil community structure and endophytic microbes in the tissues of P. bungeana under different health statuses is poorly understood. In this study, the endophytic bacterial and fungal communities of P. bungeana under different health statuses were compared and analyzed in the Xiong'an New Area. Using high-throughput deep sequencing [16S and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) rRNA] techniques, the effect of the health status of P. bungeana on the microbial communities in bulk soil, rhizospheric soil, roots, stems, and leaves was determined in this study. We observed that the diversity of the bacterial and fungal communities of the aboveground parts (stems and leaves) of healthy P. bungeana plants was much higher than that of the unhealthy plants. However, the diversity of bacterial and fungal communities in the belowground parts (bulk soil, rhizospheric soil, and roots) showed almost no difference in microbial community richness, indicating that the possible cause of illness was transmitted in a "top-down" manner. Furthermore, there were significant differences in the microbial diversity and community structure in different ecological niches of P. bungeana (P < 0.01). Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria were the dominant bacterial phyla, while Ascomycota, Basidiomycota, and Mortierellomycota were the predominant fungal phyla. Redundancy analysis (RDA) revealed that soil organic matter (SOM), total phosphorous (TP), total potassium (TK), total nitrogen (TN), water content (WC), power of hydrogen (pH), total carbon (TC), and the ratio of carbon to nitrogen (C/N) were significantly correlated with the composition of the microbial communities. Altogether, these results provide a scientific basis for further studies on the mechanism underlying the "aboveground-underground" microbial interactions in plantation forests, which can aid in promoting the healthy and sustainable development of the Millennium Xiulin forest in the Xiong'an New Area.

Project description:Soil bacteria are important drivers of biogeochemical cycles and participate in many nutrient transformations in the soil. Meanwhile, bacterial diversity and community composition are related to soil physic-chemical properties and vegetation factors. However, how the soil and vegetation factors affect the diversity and community composition of bacteria is poorly understood, especially for bacteria associated with evergreen and deciduous trees in subtropical forest ecosystems. In the present paper, the microbial communities of rhizospheric soils associated with different types of trees were analyzed by Illumina MiSeq sequencing the V3-V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene. A total of 121,219 effective 16S rRNA gene sequences were obtained, which were classified into 29 bacterial phyla and 2 archaeal phyla. The dominant phyla across all samples (>5% of good-quality sequences in each sample) were Proteobacteria, Acidobacteria, Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes. The bacterial community composition and diversity were largely affected by both soil pH and tree species. The soil pH was the key factor influencing bacterial diversity, with lower pH associated with less diverse communities. Meanwhile, the contents of NO3- were higher in evergreen tree soils than those associated with deciduous trees, while less NH4+ than those associated with deciduous trees, leading to a lower pH and indirectly influencing the diversity and composition of the bacteria. The co-occurrence patterns were assessed by network analysis. A total of 415 pairs of significant and robust correlations (co-occurrence and negative) were identified from 89 genera. Sixteen hubs of co-occurrence patterns, mainly under the phyla Acidobacteria, Proteobacteria, Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes, may play important roles in sustaining the stability of the rhizospheric microbial communities. In general, our results suggested that local environmental conditions and soil pH were important in shaping the bacterial community of the Taihu Lake zone in east China.

Project description:Subglacial Lake Whillans (SLW) is located beneath ∼800 m of ice on the Whillans Ice Stream in West Antarctica and was sampled in January of 2013, providing the first opportunity to directly examine water and sediments from an Antarctic subglacial lake. To minimize the introduction of surface contaminants to SLW during its exploration, an access borehole was created using a microbiologically clean hot water drill designed to reduce the number and viability of microorganisms in the drilling water. Analysis of 16S rRNA genes (rDNA) amplified from samples of the drilling and borehole water allowed an evaluation of the efficacy of this approach and enabled a confident assessment of the SLW ecosystem inhabitants. Based on an analysis of 16S rDNA and rRNA (i.e., reverse-transcribed rRNA molecules) data, the SLW community was found to be bacterially dominated and compositionally distinct from the assemblages identified in the drill system. The abundance of bacteria (e.g., Candidatus Nitrotoga, Sideroxydans, Thiobacillus, and Albidiferax) and archaea (Candidatus Nitrosoarchaeum) related to chemolithoautotrophs was consistent with the oxidation of reduced iron, sulfur, and nitrogen compounds having important roles as pathways for primary production in this permanently dark ecosystem. Further, the prevalence of Methylobacter in surficial lake sediments combined with the detection of methanogenic taxa in the deepest sediment horizons analyzed (34-36 cm) supported the hypothesis that methane cycling occurs beneath the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. Large ratios of rRNA to rDNA were observed for several operational taxonomic units abundant in the water column and sediments (e.g., Albidiferax, Methylobacter, Candidatus Nitrotoga, Sideroxydans, and Smithella), suggesting a potentially active role for these taxa in the SLW ecosystem. Our findings are consistent with chemosynthetic microorganisms serving as the ecological foundation in this dark subsurface environment, providing new organic matter that sustains a microbial ecosystem beneath the West Antarctic Ice Sheet.
