[Rhizosphere Microbial Diversity in Different Wetland Microcosms].

ABSTRACT

To investigate the rhizosphere microbial community structure characteristics in varying combinations of plants and filter materials in the process of aquaculture pond water treatment, six types of wetland microcosms were established using two kinds of plants (Zizania latifolia Turcz. and Sagittaria graminea) and two types of filter materials (garnet and magnetite). High-throughput sequencing technology was used to analyze the microbial structural features and composition diversity of the wetland rhizosphere. The results were as follows. The microorganisms recovered belonged to 52 phyla, 118 classes, 455 families, 905 genera, and 1426 species. Based on the Shannon index, Zizania latifolia Turcz. (average value 5.77) had a higher capacity than Sagittaria graminea(average value 5.29) in terms of microbial enrichment. However, the rate of Proteobacteria in the rhizosphere microorganism communities of the Sagittaria graminea and Zizania latifolia Turcz. microcosms were 61.97% and 51.78%, respectively, further showing that the roots of Sagittaria graminea in the wetland microcosms better enriched the Proteobacteria during the experimental period. The major bacterial groups of different plant roots were enriched with ß-Proteobacteria in the experiment. The results of this study provide a theoretical basis for species optimization in artificial wetland systems and best combination of wetland construction that will be useful for future investigations.
