Differences in nitrification and ammonium-oxidising prokaryotes in the process of wetland restoration
Ammonia-oxidising archaea (AOA) and ammonia-oxidising bacteria (AOB) are ammonium oxidising prokaryotes that can drive soil nitrification in wetlands. During the restoration of wetlands, different types of land use soils (agricultural soil [AS], restored wetland soil [RS], and natural wetland soil [NWS]) are present. However, studies on the effects of changes in the types of land use in wetlands during restoration on nitrification and the community composition of AOA and AOB are still not well understood. In this study, the differences in the potential nitrification rate (PNR) and community composition of AOA and AOB in AS, RS, and NWS were compared and discussed. The results indicated that the PNRs in the AS, RS, and NWS were on the same order of magnitude. Nitrification was mainly driven by AOB. High-throughput sequencing results showed that the genus Nitrososphaera of AOA and unclassified_o_Nitrosomonadales of AOB were only detected in the AS. Redundancy analysis (RDA) results indicated that the community composition of AOA was mostly influenced by pH, while TC was the most influential variable on the community composition of AOB. Our study provides a basis for distinguishing the roles of ammonium-oxidising prokaryotes in nitrification and further understanding the changes in nitrifying activity in wetlands during restoration.
