Dissolved organic matter influences the indigenous bacterial community and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons biodegradation in soils

In polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) contaminated soils, bioremediation is superior to other strategies owing to its low cost and environmental friendliness. However, dissolved organic matter (DOM) and indigenous bacterial communities can affect the efficiency of PAH-degrading bacteria (PDB). This study found that exogenous PDB (C1) including the genera Acinetobacter, Stenotrophomonas, and Comamonas, decreased the bacterial diversity of Alfisol, Ultisol, Inceptisol, and Mollisol, and DOM enhanced the diffusion of PDB and the bioavailability of PAH. In addition, bacteria preferred to ingest low molecular weight DOM fractions, and the abundances of lipid-like and protein-like substances decreased by 0.12-3.03 % and 1.73-4.60 %. The DOM fractions had a more marked influence on the indigenous bacteria than the exogenous PDB, and PDB dominated the PAH biodegradation process in the soils. More COO functional groups promoted the utilization of higher molecular weight-related homologue fractions by bacteria, and lower molecular weight fractions carrying more CH2 functional groups declined during biodegradation. This study investigated the variations in bacterial communities during biodegradation and revealed the effects of DOM fractions on biodegradation in PAH-contaminated soils at the molecular level. These results will promote the development of bioremediation strategies for organics-contaminated soil and provide guidance for prediction models of soil biodegradation kinetics.
