摘要

Abstract

Anthropogenic nutrient discharge poses widespread threats to coastal ecosystems and has increased environmental gradients from coast to sea. Bacterioplankton play crucial roles in coastal biogeochemical cycling

and a variety of factors affect bacterial community diversity and structure. We used 16S rRNA gene pyrosequencing to investigate the spatial variation in bacterial community composition (BCC) across five sites on a coast-offshore gradient in the East China Sea. Overall

bacterial alpha-diversity did not differ across sites

except that richness and phylogenetic diversity were lower in the offshore sites

and the highest alpha-diversity was found in the most landward site

with Chl-

being the main factor. BCCs generally clustered into coastal and offshore groups. Chl-

explained 12.3% of the variation in BCCs

more than that explained by either the physicochemical (5.7%) or spatial (8.5%) variables. Nutrients (particularly nitrate and phosphate)

along with phytoplankton abundance

were more important than other physicochemical factors

co-explaining 20.0% of the variation in BCCs. Additionally

a series of discriminant families (primarily affiliated with

Gammaproteobacteria

and

Alphaproteobacteria

)

whose relative abundances correlated with Chl-

DIN

and phosphate concentrations

were identified

implying their potential to indicate phytoplankton blooms and nutrient enrichment in this marine ecosystem. This study provides insight into bacterioplankton response patterns along a coast-offshore gradient

with phytoplankton abundance increasing in the offshore sites. Time-series sampling across multiple transects should be performed to determine the seasonal and spatial patterns in bacterial diversity and community structure along this gradient.
