Abstract

Escalating proportions of industrially contaminated sites are one of the major catastrophes faced at the present time due to the industrial revolution. The difficulties associated with culturing the microbes, has been circumvent by the direct use of metagenomic analysis of various complex niches. In this study, a metagenomic approach using next generation sequencing technologies was applied to exemplify the taxonomic abundance and metabolic potential of the microbial community residing in Amlakhadi canal, Ankleshwar at two different seasons. All the metagenomes revealed a predominance of Proteobacteria phylum. However, difference was observed within class level where Gammaproteobacteria was relatively high in polluted metagenome in Summer while in Monsoon the abundance shifted to Betaproteobacteria. Similarly, significant statistical differences were obtained while comparing the genera amongst contaminated sites where Serratia, Achromobacter, Stenotrophomonas and Pseudomonas were abundant in summer season and the dominance changed to Thiobacillus, Thauera, Acidovorax, Nitrosomonas, Sulfuricurvum, Novosphingobium, Hyphomonas and Geobacter in monsoon. Further upon functional characterization, the microbiomes revealed the diverse survival mechanisms, in response to the prevailing ecological conditions (such as degradation of aromatic compounds, heavy metal resistance, oxidative stress responses and multidrug resistance efflux pumps, etc.). The results have important implications in understanding and predicting the impacts of human-induced activities on microbial communities inhabiting natural niche and their responses in coping with the fluctuating pollution load.
