Abstract
Characterization of microbial communities is important for understanding the soil biodiversity distribution affected by environmental factors. Here, we combined high-throughput sequencing of 16S rDNA and ITS to investigate the composition of bacterial and fungal communities in interval seawater covering Linchang Island, China. We compared the microbial communities in the soil of three sample points from the southern part to the northern part. No difference was observed in microbial abundance, richness and diversity in those three different locations. In addition, weighted and unweighted UniFrac distances revealed that three soil samples could not be separated from each other, even if the LCNS sample had significantly lower organic matter (OM), sodium and sulfate contents than the LCSS and LCMS samples. This result indicated that the microbial community of the soil may be influenced more strongly by interval seawater than by soil chemical characteristics. The bacterial phyla Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Acidobacteria, and Bacteroidetes were the four most abundant phyla in all samples, accounting for 83.22% of the microbial community. Escherichia-Shigella and Vibrio were abundant in the samples and accounted for 1.17% and 0.27%, respectively. Fungal structure, phylogenetic diversity, richness, and bacterial structure had a significant negative relationship with Vibrio abundance. In addition, Vibrio showed negative correlations with the genera Simiduia, Microbulbifer and Haliangium. The results reveal that the re-shaped microbiome and introduced typical microbes could be strategies for inhibiting Vibrio in the soil of Linchang Island.
