Field investigations were carried out to gain a deeper understanding of the community composition and functional role of heterotrophic bacteria attached to Dolichospermum and Microcystins cells. The significantly positive relationships between Dolichospermum density and total nitrogen (TN) and between Microcystins density and particle nitrogen (PN) indicated the strong nitrogen ( N) demand of these two species. The lack of functional genes that mediate the nitrification process in bacteria attached to both Microcystins and Dolichospermum cells indicated that these two genera preferred ammonium (NH4+-N). Dolichospermum cells obtained more available N through N-2 fixation, which was expressed by high nitrogenase gene abundance. Bacteria attached to Microcystins cells showed a higher activity of leucine aminopeptidase and a significantly higher abundance of functional genes that mediate dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA) than those attached to Dolichospermum cells. The significantly higher abundance of carbon degradation genes and beta-glucosidase activity of bacteria attached to Microcystins cells compared with those of bacteria attached to Dolichospermum cells suggested that abundant organic carbon was bound to Microcystins cells, which is a prerequisite for DNRA. In addition, Microcystins cells exhibited a great advantage in soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) production through high levels of organic phosphorus (P) hydrolysis associated with high levels of phosphatase genes of attached bacteria. In conclusion, bacteria attached to Microcystins cells performed more important functions on NH4+-N and SRP production through ammonification and DNRA, as well as phosphatase hydrolysis respectively, compared to those attached to Dolichospermum. Thus, algal growth is the result of different variables such as nutrient concentration, their ratio and the microbial ability. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. |
