Microbial diversity in intensively farmed lake sediment contaminated by heavy metals and identification of microbial taxa bioindicators of environmental quality

The cumulative effects of anthropogenic stress on freshwater ecosystems are becoming increasingly evident and worrisome. In lake sediments contaminated by heavy metals, the composition and structure of microbial communities can change and affect nutrient transformation and biogeochemical cycling of...

description The cumulative effects of anthropogenic stress on freshwater ecosystems are becoming increasingly evident and worrisome. In lake sediments contaminated by heavy metals, the composition and structure of microbial communities can change and affect nutrient transformation and biogeochemical cycling of sediments. In this study, bacterial and archaeal communities of lake sediments under fish pressure contaminated with heavy metals were investigated by the Illumina MiSeq platform. Despite the similar content of most of the heavy metals in the lagoon sediments, we found that their microbial communities were different in diversity and composition. This difference would be determined by the resilience or tolerance of the microbial communities to the heavy metal enrichment gradient. Thirty-two different phyla and 66 different microbial classes were identified in sediment from the three lagoons studied. The highest percentages of contribution in the differentiation of microbial communities were presented by the classes Alphaproteobacteria (19.08%), Cyanophyceae (14.96%), Betaproteobacteria (9.01%) y Actinobacteria (7.55%). The bacteria that predominated in sediments with high levels of Cd and As were Deltaproteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Coriobacteriia, Nitrososphaeria and Acidobacteria (Pomacocha), Alphaproteobacteria, Chitinophagia, Nitrospira and Clostridia (Tipicocha) and Betaproteobacteria (Tranca Grande). Finally, the results allow us to expand the current knowledge of microbial diversity in lake sediments contaminated with heavy metals and to identify bioindicators taxa of environmental quality that can be used in the monitoring and control of heavy metal contamination.
