Abstract

|
|
In this study, the structure and diversity of bacterial community were investigated in the surface and subsurface marine sediments using a NGS method (i.e. illumina sequencing technology). The bacterial community in the surface was distinct from that in the subsurface of marine sediment; with the exception of the phylum Proteobacteria, the relative abundance of Bacteroides phylum were higher in the surface than subsurface, whereas the sequences affiliated to the phyla Chloroflexi and Acidobacteria were relatively more copious in the subsurface than surface sediment. Moreover, interestingly, we observed that the phyla Nitrospinae and Nitrospirae contribute to nitrogen cycle in the marine sediment. This study may present the possibility for the presence of novel micr oorganisms as unexplored sources and provide basic information on the microbial community structure.
