Plants and their associated bacteria have been suggested to play a role in air pollution mitigation, especially in urban areas. Particularly, epiphytic bacteria might be able to degrade atmospheric hydrocarbons. However, phyllospheric bacterial communities are highly variable depending on several factors, e.g. tree species, leaf age and physiology, environmental conditions. In this work, bacterial communities hosted by urban Platanus x acerifolia leaves were taxonomically characterized using high throughput sequencing of 16S rRNA gene, and their temporal and spatial variability was assessed by comparing samples collected from different locations in the city of Milan (Italy) and in different months. The diversity of alkane hydroxylase (alkB) phylotypes harboured by phyllospheric bacteria associated to urban Platanus trees was also evaluated. Results revealed that temporal changes, which are related to seasonality, acted as a stronger driver both on Platanus phyllospheric community structure and on alkB phylotype diversity than sampling location. Biodiversity of bacterial communities decreased along the growing season, leading to a strong dominance by the genus Stenotrophomonas. On the contrary, diversity of hydrocarbon-degrading populations increased over the months, although it resulted lower than that reported for other habitats. It was therefore hypothesized that atmospheric hydrocarbons might play a key role in the selection of phyllospheric populations in urban areas.

“…The genus Aeribacillus contains a single species, Aeribacillus pallidus (formerly Geobacillus pallidus = Bacillus pallidus ) ( 1 ). Representatives of this species have been isolated from sewage ( 1 ), production water from high-temperature oilfields ( 2 , 3 ), hot springs ( 4 , 5 ), oil-contaminated soil ( 6 ), and from a deep geothermal reservoir ( 7 ). The only genome of the A. pallidus (strain GS3372) deposited at DDBJ/EMBL/GenBank has a G+C content of 57.4% ( 7 ).…”
