Boron mine ponds: metagenomic insight to bacterial diversity

Abstract

Since it can be a source of new microorganisms with biological potential, it is important to identify the microorganisms found in environments with high boron content in terms of ecological and biotechnological application potentials. In this context, deposit waters in environments where boron mining activities perform are important habitats for boronophilic/boronotolerant microorganisms. In this study, bacterial community in the waste mining ponds of Balıkesir-Bigadiç and Eskişehir-Kırka Boron Mining Operations were investigated by using 16S rDNA gene-targeted Illumina MiSeq sequencing. The greater parts of high-throughput sequences were related to Proteobacteria, Planctomycetes, Bacteriodetes, Verrucomicrobia and Actinobacteria phyla. Cyanobacteria and Parcubacteria were other notable groups with low abundance. Genera belonged to Blastopirellula, Luteolibacter, Porhyrobacter and Hydrogenophaga were the most abundant taxa for all the samples. Sandarakinorhabdus, Pseudoanabena, Roseinatronobacter and Pontimonas genera-affiliated reads were also detected at in the October samples. Striking seasonal variations were detected between samples in terms of the type and number of microbial populations.
