- Abstract:
-
To elucidate soil bacterial communities, especially in desertification grasslands, we explored soil bacterial communities by the method of high throughput sequencing technique (MiSeq). The sequence region was 16 SrRNA V3—V4 variable region. α diversity, community composition and the relative abundance of soil bacterial groups were analyzed in order to explore the effects of soil nutrients on bacterial community structure in different desertification grasslands including non-desertification grassland, light-desertification grassland, middle-desertification grassland and heavy-desertification grassland in northwest Sichuan. The results showed that: (1) there was a large difference in soil nutrients in different desertification grasslands, with the desertification in grassland, soil pH increased, while soil organic carbon, total nitrogen, total potassium, alkali-nitrogen and available phosphorus gradually decreased; (2) the structure and diversity of the microbial communities differed from different desertification grasslands; at the phylum level, the dominant phyla were Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Acidobacteria, Chloroflexi, Gemmatimonadetes and Firmicutes, at the class level, α-Proteobacteria Actinobacteria, Acidobacteria, β-Proteobacteria, Thermoleophilia, Gemmatimonadetes, Bacilli, δ-Proteobacteria were predominant; compared with desertification grasslands, the dominant phyla in non-desertification grassland was Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria; (3) with the increase of the desertification degree of grassland, OUTs, Chao, Ace and Shannon gradually decreased, while there were no significant difference in coverage and Simpson index; (4) the results from the canonical correspondence and Pearson correlation analysis showed that soil organic carbon and total nitrogen were the main factors that significantly affected the soil bacterial community composition and alpha diversity in desertification grasslands in northwest Sichuan.
