ABSTRACT
Understanding the microbial community structure in soil contaminated with heavy metals (HMs) is a precondition to conduct bioremediation in mine soil. Samples were collected from a typical lead-zinc (Pb-Zn) mine to assess the microbial community structure of the HMs concentrated in the soil. The goal was to analyze the bacterial and fungal community structures and their interactions using the 16S rRNA genes and internal transcribed spacer high-throughput sequencing. Analyses at different sampling sites showed that contamination with HMs significantly reduced the bacterial richness and diversity but increased that of the fungi. The predominant bacteria genera of Acidobacteriales, Gaiellales, Anaerolineaceae, Sulfurifustis, and Gemmatimonadaceae, and predominant fungal genera of Sordariomycetes, Talaromyces, and Mortierella were assumed as HM resistant genera in Pb-Zn mining area. The pH effect on the bacterial and fungal communities was opposite to those of Cd, Pb, and Zn. This study offers comprehensive outlooks for bacterial and fungal community structures upon multiple HM stresses in the soil around a typical Pb-Zn mine area.
