    Abstract Saltpans are a class of ephemeral wetland characterized by alternating periods of inundation, rising salinity, and desiccation. We obtained soil cores from a saltpan on the Mississippi Gulf coast in both the inundated and desiccated state. The microbiomes of surface and 30 cm deep sediment were determined using Illumina sequencing of the V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene. Bacterial and archaeal community composition differed significantly between sediment depths but did not differ between inundated and desiccated states. Well-represented taxa included marine microorganisms as well as multiple halophiles, both observed in greater proportions in surface sediment. Functional inference of metagenomic data showed that saltpan sediments in the inundated state had greater potential for microbial activity and that several energetic and degradation pathways were more prevalent in saltpan sediment than in nearby tidal marsh sediment. Microbial communities within saltpan sediments differed in composition from those in adjacent freshwater and brackish marshes. These findings indicate that the bacterial and archaeal microbiomes of saltpans are highly stratified by sediment depth and are only minimally influenced by changes in hydration. The surface sediment community is likely isolated from the shallow subsurface community by compaction, with the microbial community dominated by marine and terrestrial halophiles.

    Abstract Freshwater mussels are a species-rich group of aquatic invertebrates that are among the most endangered groups of fauna worldwide. As filter-feeders that are constantly exposed to new microbial inoculants, mussels represent an ideal system to investigate the effects of species or the environment on gut microbiome composition. In this study, we examined if host species or site exerts a greater influence on microbiome composition. Individuals of four co-occurring freshwater mussel species, Cyclonaias asperata, Fusconaia cerina, Lampsilis ornata, and Obovaria unicolor were collected from six sites along a 50 km stretch of the Sipsey River in Alabama, USA. High throughput 16S rRNA gene sequencing revealed that mussel gut bacterial microbiota were distinct from bacteria on seston suspended in the water column, and that the composition of the gut microbiota was influenced by both host species and site. Despite species and environmental variation, the most frequently detected sequences within the mussel microbiota were identified as members of the Clostridiales. Sequences identified as the nitrogen-fixing taxon Methylocystis sp. were also abundant in all mussel species, and sequences of both bacterial taxa were more abundant in mussels than in water. Site physicochemical conditions explained almost 45% of variation in seston bacterial communities but less than 8% of variation in the mussel bacterial microbiome. Together, these findings suggest selective retention of bacterial taxa by the freshwater mussel host, and that both species and the environment are important in determining mussel gut microbiome composition.

    Abstract Coastal wetlands provide a variety of ecological functions that sustain biodiverse habitats, serve as barriers to storm surge, regulate biogeochemical cycles, and yield ecosystem goods and services that benefit society. The magnitude of wetland functional delivery varies with geomorphology and landscape position, hydropattern and hydrodynamics, vegetation structure and composition, soil properties, and microbial community assemblages and activities. Here we describe soil physicochemical and microbial diversity along a vegetation and salinity gradient in the Mobile Bay estuary, AL, USA and discuss how these factors feedback on ecosystem characteristics and the delivery of ecological functions. We incorporated microbial biomass, diversity, and community composition into patterns of dominant vegetation cover type and soil properties. Stepwise model selection using permutation tests indicated that vegetation type >> soil horizon > and salinity strongly influenced microbe-soil relationships. The dominant variables governing microbial content were total sulfur concentration in surface soils and nitrate and nitrite (NOx) for subsurface soils. All biotic and abiotic variables indicated that seasonally inundated forested wetlands represented a distinct microbial biome within the Mobile Bay estuary compared to more frequently flooded and increasingly salt-tolerant Typha, tidal shrub, and Juncus wetland types. Compared with the other wetland types examined for this study, forested wetlands contained ~80% less organic carbon content, ~75% less nitrogen, ~33% less phosphorus, and ~95% less sulfur. Our results show the benefit of incorporating microbial trait data, including metataxonomics, enzymatics, and biomass, with other ecosystem properties such as vegetation and soil characterization data.
