[Characteristics of Bacterial Community Structure in Wuliangsu Lake During an Irrigation Interval in Hetao Plain]

In order to study the bacterial community composition and corresponding function in Wuliangsu Lake at the end of the Hetao Plain during the irrigation gap period, lake samples were collected in September 2020, and the pH, TN, TP, DIP, DTP, NH₄⁺-N, Chla, EC, SAL, and other indicators were analyzed. The 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing method was used to explore the attached bacteria and bacterioplankton in 15 samples of the surface water in Wuliangsu Lake. The experimental results showed that:① the alpha diversity Chao and Shannon indices of attached bacteria were greater than that of bacterioplankton, but the median of Shannoneven index was the same. ② In each sampling point, the bacterioplankton of Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria in the top five dominant bacteria phyla were higher than that of attached bacteria, and the abundance of attached bacteria and bacterioplankton of Bacteroidota were staggered. On the contrary, the contents of attached bacteria of Verrucomicrobiota and Cyanobacteria were all higher than that of bacterioplankton. ③ Redundant analysis showed that pH had the most significant effect on dominant attached bacteria, and the effect of conductivity and salinity in dominant bacterioplankton was the most significant. ④ PICRUSt2 function prediction analysis showed that attached bacteria and planktonic bacteria had the strongest metabolic functions, showing abundant metabolic functions. There were 29 nitrogen-related effective KOs and 88 phosphorus-related effective KOs, with the greatest nitrogen-fixing function and strong inorganic phosphorus-dissolving function, and bacterioplankton played a greater role in the two functions.
