Sedimentary Nitrogen and Sulfur Reduction Functional-Couplings Interplay With the Microbial Community of Anthropogenic Shrimp Culture Pond Ecosystem.

ABSTRACT: Sediment nitrogen and sulfur cycles are essential biogeochemical processes that regulate the microbial communities of environmental ecosystems, which have closely linked to environment ecological health. However, their functional couplings in anthropogenic aquaculture sedimentary ecosystems remain poorly understood. Here, we explored the sediment functional genes in shrimp culture pond ecosystems (SCPEs) at different culture stages using the GeoChip gene array approach with 16S amplicon sequencing. Dissimilarity analysis showed that the compositions of both functional genes and bacterial communities differed at different phases of shrimp culture with the appearance of temporal distance decay (p < 0.05). During shrimp culture, the abundances of nitrite and sulfite reduction functiona
