Analyses of dryland biological soil crusts highlight lichens as an important regulator of microbial communities

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Biological soil crusts (BSCs) provide important ecosystem services in dryland regions, including erosion control and contribution to nitrogen and CO2 fixation. As soil microorganisms are still rarely studied within the context of biodiversity planning, we describe, as a contribution to the Soil Crust International project, an approach that addresses this gap in biodiversity assessments. The purpose of the present study was a characterization of prokaryotic communities of BSCs formed by two species of lichenized fungi, Psora decipiens and Toninia sedifolia, in relation to surrounding BSCs and the below-crust soil layer from Tabernas basin (Almeria, Spain). Microbial community profiles were determined using 454 pyrosequencing targeting the V4 hypervariable region of the bacterial and archaeal 16S rRNA gene. The majority of the 65,497 sequences obtained belonged to Proteobacteria (mainly Alphaproteobacteria), Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes and Cyanobacteria.
