Bacterial Community Composition and Isolation of Actinobacteria from the Soil of Flaming Mountain in Xinjiang, China.

ABSTRACT: In this work, bacterial community composition and actinobacteria resources were explored in extremely hot and hyper-arid areas of Flaming Mountain. This was achieved through a combination of PCR amplicon sequencing of bacterial 16S rRNA gene and cultivation-dependent isolation and characterization efforts. According to the high-throughput sequencing results and soil characteristics, 11 kinds of media were firstly designed to isolate actinobacteria, following the screening and identification of related strains. The results showed that a total of 2994 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were obtained, involving 22 phyla, 77 orders and 121 genera. Among them, actinobacteria with the relative abundance of 8% ranked third, accounting for 33 genera and 47 species. A total of 132 strains distribut
