ABSTRACT
We examine how oxygen levels and the choice of 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) tags impact marine bacterial communities using Next-Generation amplicon sequencing. Analyzing V3 and V6 regions, we assess microbial composition in both Oxygen minimum zones (OMZ) and non-OMZ (NOMZ) areas in the Arabian Sea (AS) and the Central Indian Ocean basin (CIOB) respectively. Operational taxonomic units (OTUs) at 97% similarity showed slightly higher richness and diversity with V6 compared to V3. Vertical diversity patterns were consistent across both regions. NOMZ showed greater richness and diversity than OMZ. AS and CIOB exhibited significant differences in bacterial community, diversity, and relative abundance at the order and family levels. Alteromonadaceae dominated the OMZ, while Pelagibacteraceae dominated the NOMZ. Synechococcaceae were found exclusively at 250 m in OMZ. Bacteria putatively involved in nitrification, denitrification, and sulfurylation were detected at both sites. Dissolved oxygen significantly influenced microbial diversity at both sites, while seasonal environmental parameters affected diversity consistently, with no observed temporal variation.
