ABSTRACT
Metal pollution has raised negative impact on microbes, but little is known about the distribution and co-occurrence pattern of bacterial, fungal and archaeal communities along the soil profiles at multiple metal contamination sites. Here, we characterized the variations of metal concentrations and microbial communities with soil depth along five deep bores at the Tanghe Sewage Reservoir, a typical metal contamination area on the North China Plain. Co, Cd, Mg, Se, and Li were identified as the major contaminants in this area, and the pollution load index was 1.88, 1.54 and 1.62 in the shallow layer (0-0.6 m), deep layer (>2.0 m) and middle layer (0.6-2.0 m), respectively. The diversities and compositions of bacterial, archaeal and fungal communities varied significantly along the soil profiles. Deterministic process played a crucial role in shaping the difference of microbial community compositions among different soil layers, in which metal levels contributed more than soil physiochemical parameters. Furthermore, the interspecific co-occurrence network was most complex in the middle layer, indicating that metal pollution could decrease microbial network complexity. Bacterial keystone species in the co-occurrence networks showed both positive and negative correlations with polluted metals, whereas most archaeal and fungal keystone species were negatively related to multiple metals. These findings increased our understanding of distribution patterns, co-occurrence networks and environmental drivers of microbial communities in metal pollution soils.
