Effects of plant biomass on bacterial community structure in constructed wetlands used for tertiary wastewater treatment

Original language description

Constructed wetlands (CWs) have been used successfully to treat municipal wastewater. However, few studies have focused on the microbial community in CWs used for tertiary wastewater treatment. In this study, 454 high-throughput pyrosequencing was applied to analyze the bacterial community in unplanted, planted, and litter loaded CWs. Results showed that both plants and litter increased the diversity and abundance of the microbial community in CWs. The effects of plant biomass on the bacterial communityat the phylum level were not pronounced, but the compositions were significantly affected at the class and genus levels. Specific comparison down to the genus level revealed that the relative abundances of nitrifier, denitrifier and sulfate-reducing bacteria were positively correlated with the removal efficiencies of ammonia, nitrate and sulfate observed. Highly functional organization (>70%)of the bacterial communities indicates that only a small group of species played a dominant role
