Divergent prokaryotic microbial assembly, co-existence patterns and functions in surrounding river sediments of a Cu-polymetallic deposit in Tibet

Role of Vermicomposting Microorganisms in the Conversion of Biomass Ash to Bio-Based Fertilizers

“…The phyla of Planctomycetota accounted for 15.33%, 12.58%, 20.31%, and 19.85% in T0, T1, T2, and T3. Previous studies have reported that Planctomycetota are well adapted to different habitats, maintain high numbers in microbial communities and have the remarkable ability to participate in nitrogen metabolism in natural environments [47,48]. The significant concentration of the Bacteriodata phylum in the T1 sample also indicated that it had an impact on the alkaline phosphatase enzyme activity value.…”

Assembly processes of bacterial and fungal communities in metal(loid)s smelter soil

“…The Pseudomonadota was abundant in the Huilong area, suggesting that this phylum mitigates metal(loid)s toxicity through a special adaptive mechanism (Keshri et al, 2015;Fashola et al, 2016). Moreover, members of norank_o__Candidatus_Woesebacteria belong to the phylum of Patescibacteria, which phyla has As, Fe, and Ag resistance genes (Zhou et al, 2022) and can transport various heavy metals from massive soils to the rhizosphere (Tian et al, 2022). Consistent with previous studies (Flieder et al, 2020;Liu et al, 2022c), the members of norank_o__norank_c__AT-s3-28 family, associated with the phylum Acidobacteriota, play a key role in bacterial communities in areas such as Huilong, which exhibited a resistance capacity to metal(loid)s pollution (Wang et al, 2022a).…”

It is not surprising that the family norank_o__norank_c__bacteriap25 (Myxococcota) and Phycisphaeraceae (Planctomycetota) were identified as keystone taxa in the Huilong site, owing to their ability to tolerate and resist metals ions using the complexation and adsorption mechanisms (Dell'Anno et al, 2021;Liu et al, 2022d;Marghoob et al, 2022;Gao et al, 2022). These findings could help develop remediation strategies for Huilong contaminated areas, for example, by purposefully screening key species for biological materials.…”
