Habitat and seasonal variations in bacterial community structure and diversity in sediments of a Shallow lake
Benthic bacteria are drivers of aquatic ecosystem material circulation and energy flow, and are sensitive to environmental changes. In this study, a total of 79 sediment samples were collected from four representative habitat types (duck farm, fish farm, lotus pond and residential area) and one refe...

Benthic bacteria are drivers of aquatic ecosystem material circulation and energy flow, and are sensitive to environmental changes. In this study, a total of 79 sediment samples were collected from four representative habitat types (duck farm, fish farm, lotus pond and residential area) and one reference site (conservation district) of Baiyangdian Lake, North China, in three seasons (winter, spring and summer). The physical and chemical properties and the levels of contaminants in sediment were determined. Bacterial communities were studied by 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing techniques. The result showed that, Proteobacteria, Chloroflexi, Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes and Actinobacteria were the dominant species at the phylum level in Baiyangdian. Sulfuricurvum, Thiobacillus Dechloromonas, Sulfurovum, Nitrospira and Desulfatiglans were the dominant species at the genus level. The dominant genus was different among different habitats. Proteobacteria exhibited the highest relative abundance in all seasons, and the relative abundance of dominant bacteria was highest in winter. The main functional group from the sampling sites were contamination tolerance bacteria, such as sulfur-oxidizing, sulfate-reducing and nitrifying bacteria. Sulfur-oxidizing bacteria were found mainly in duck farms and residential areas, whereas sulfate-reducing bacteria and nitrifying bacteria occurred in lotus ponds.
