Soil Bacterial Diversity and Its Relationship with Soil CO2 and Mineral Composition: A Case Study of the Laiwu Experimental Site

Abstract

To better understand the characteristics of soil bacterial diversity in different environments, the Laiwu Qilongwan experimental site was selected as it is of great significance for the study of geochemical cycles. The soil CO2, mineral composition and bacterial community were analyzed by an EGM-4 portable environmental gas detector, an X-ray diffractometer and 16S rDNA high-throughput sequencing, and soil bacterial diversity and the relationship between soil bacterial diversity and environmental factors were studied. The results showed that with increasing soil depth, the CO2 content increased, the feldspar and amphibole contents increased, the quartz content decreased, the richness of the soil bacterial community increased, the relative richness of Nitrospirae increased, and Chloroflexi decreased. The dominant bacteria were Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria and Acidobacteria. There were slight differences in soil CO2, mineral composition and dominant bacterial flora at the same depth. Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria and Firmicutes were the dominant phyla of L02. The CO2 was lowest in bare land, and the quartz and K-feldspar contents were the highest. Soil CO2 mainly affected the deep bacterial diversity, while shallow soil bacteria were mainly affected by mineral components (quartz and K-feldspar). At the same depth, amphibole and clay minerals had obvious effects on the bacterial community, while CO2 had obvious effects on subdominant bacteria.

Effect of Long-Term Fertilization on Ammonia-Oxidizing Microorganisms and Nitrification in Brown Soil of Northeast China

“…The pure PCR product equimolar and paired end was sequenced according to the standard protocols by Majorbio Bio-Pharm Technology Co., Ltd. (Shanghai, China) ( Zhang et al, 2020 ). The raw amo A gene sequencing reads were demultiplexed, quality-filtered by fast p version 0.20.0 ( Chen et al, 2018 ), and merged by FLASH version 1.2.7 ( Magoč and Salzberg, 2011 ) with the same following criteria as described by Zhang et al (2020) .…”

Evaluation of the Efficacy of some Bioagents accompanied with Bio- and Mineral Fertilizers in Controlling Early Blight of Tomato and Improvement Yield

“…These microbes may interact with plants, some with beneficial effect and others have harmful consequences as fungi, bacteria and actinomycetes that play a major role in plant health and productivity or disease (Kumar et al, 2015). In addition, Zhang et al (2020) explained that soil microorganisms are the most active part of the soil and the main component of the soil decomposition system. Soil microorganisms play an important role in soil formation and development, organic matter decomposition, material transformation, energy transfer, the geochemical cycle and bioremediation.…”

Innovative inbuilt moving bed biofilm reactor for nitrogen removal applied in household aquarium

“…For comparison, sediment samples were taken from three random places at the bottom of the aquarium. The seven samples were commissioned by Majorbio Bio-Pharm Technology Co., Ltd. (Shanghai, China) for genomic DNA extraction and sequencing according to the standard steps ( Zhang et al, 2020 ). The hypervariable region V3–V4 of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene was amplified with the primer pairs presented in 338F and 806R ( Zhou et al, 2022a ).…”

“…The steps of processing of sequencing data were also performed by the standard steps of Majorbio Bio-Pharm Technology Co., Ltd. (Shanghai, China; Zhang et al, 2020 ). The taxonomy of each operational taxonomic unit (OTU) representative sequence was analyzed against the Silva138 database 1 using confidence threshold of 0.7.…”
