Ocean acidification altered microbial functional potential in the Arctic Ocean

Published in Limnology and Oceanography, 2023

The paper investigates the impact of ocean acidification (OA) on the microbial functional potential in the Arctic Ocean. Using high-throughput functional gene microarray technology (GeoChip 4), the study examines the functional gene structure and diversity of bacterioplankton under different pCO2 levels. The findings reveal that elevated pCO2 levels lead to higher evenness and stability in microbial functional genes, with more complex and stable molecular ecological networks. Additionally, there is an increase in the average abundance of genes involved in key metabolic processes such as carbon degradation, methane oxidation, nitrogen fixation, and sulfide reduction. These results suggest that OA significantly influences the metabolic potential of bacterioplankton, potentially altering biogeochemical cycling in the future.

Heavy Metal Induced Shifts in Microbial Community Composition And Interactions with Dissolved Organic Matter in Coastal Sediments

Published in Science of the Total Environment, 2024

This research investigates the impact of heavy metals on microbial community structure and dissolved organic matter (DOM) composition in coastal sediments of Beibu Gulf, China. The study identifies chromium, zinc, cadmium, and lead as significant pollutants in the area. It finds that heavy metals alter the DOM composition, increasing the presence of recalcitrant organic matter, such as carboxyl-rich alicyclic molecules and highly unsaturated compounds. The study also reveals that heavy metals negatively affect archaeal communities more than bacterial ones and shift microbial interactions with DOM. Various statistical analyses, including redundancy analysis and co-occurrence network construction, were used to explore these relationships.
