To study the soil genetic diversity of bacteria and fungi in different vegetation successions (grassland, shrubbery, primary forest and secondary forest) from the karst area, the Polymerase Chain Reaction-Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) technology was applied. The results showed that: (1) the diversity of bacterial communities and the fungal communities in karst area were higher than non karst area in each vegetation succession. Compared with the survey from bacterial (the Shannon index was 2.97 in primary forest, 2.91 in secondary forest, 3.18 in shrubbery, 3.14 in grassland and 2.68 in non karst), fungal diversity between karst areas (the Shannon index was 3.56 in primary forest, 3.78 in secondary forest, 3.73 in shrubbery and 3.70 in grassland) and non karst areas (the Shannon index was 3.08) was more evident, which may be related to the alterations of the composition of plant community and the source of carbon in soil with the vegetation succession of karst ecosystem; (2) The comparation of bacterial diversity index and the richness comprehensively evaluated as follows: shrubbery > grassland > primary forest > nsecondary forest. The diversity index and the richness of fungal communities was as follows: secondary forest > shrubbery > grassland > primary forest. The results suggest that the fungal communities have been greatly changed via vegetation successions, but the diversity index and the richness of the bacterial communities have not been seriously affected. The results provide scientific basis for understanding karst surface ecosystem, which contributes to the future aim of protecting the karst from desertification.
In order to explore the difference of soil microbial population structure and abundance before and after planting JunCao “Oasis No. 1” in saline-alkali soil, verify the improvement effect of JunCao “Oasis No. 1” on microbial population structure and abundance in saline-alkali soil. Samples were collected from the blank saline area with and without JunCao “Oasis NO.1” and no plant growth on the surface, respectively, as Experimental group soil samples (S.Y.1-S.Y.8) and Blank group soil samples (K.B.1-K.B.8).16sDNA high-throughput sequencing technology was used for sequencing analysis respectively, and the diversity of microbial population abundance between them was compared and analyzed.The results showed that the diversity of microbial population abundance in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the blank group, and the diversity of microbial population abundance in the experimental group was significantly different from that in the blank group, indicating that the composition of microbial population in the experimental group was significantly different from that in the blank group. In the OTU cluster analysis, the number of OTU clusters in the Experimental group soil samples (S.Y.1-S.Y.8) was significantly higher than that in the Blank group soil samples (K.B.1-K.B.8). In the sample complexity analysis of α-diversity analysis, the richness and diversity of microbial population in soil samples of Experimental group (S.Y.1-S.Y.8) were significantly higher than that in soil samples of Blank group (K.B.1-K.B.8), which was clearly reflected in the Species accumulation boxplot and Graph of species diversity. In the β-diversity analysis, PcoA, PCA and NMDS analysis methods were used to analyze the difference of microbial population diversity between Experimental soil samples (S.Y.1-S.Y.8) and Blank soil samples (K.B.1-K.B.8). The results showed that the diversity of microbial population in Experimental soil sample (S.Y.1-S.Y.8) was significantly different from that in Blank soil sample (K.B.1-K.B.8). In this paper, 16sDNA high-throughput sequencing technology was used to analyze the diversity of microbial population abundance between Blank soil samples and Experimental soil samples, and it was proved that JunCao “Oasis No. 1” had good saline-alkali soil improvement characteristics. It can effectively increase the abundance of microbial population in saline-alkali soil, so as to restore the microbial population ecosystem in saline-alkali soil, which has important application value in soil saline-alkali control.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
