Variation of Metagenome From Feedstock to Digestate in Full-Scale Biogas Plants.

ABSTRACT: Anaerobic digestion (AD) has been widely used to resolve the problem of organic wastes worldwide. Previous studies showed that the types of feedstock have a great influence on the AD microbiome, and a huge number of AD populations are migrated from upstream feedstocks. However, the changes of microbial compositions from feedstock to AD digestate are still less understood. We collected feedstock samples from 56 full-scale biogas plants, generated 1,716 Gb feedstock metagenomic data in total, and constructed the first comprehensive microbial gene catalog of feedstock containing 25.2 million genes. Our result indicated that the predominant phyla in feedstock are Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, and Proteobacteria, which is similar to that in AD digestate, and the microbial dive
