East Asian monsoon manipulates the richness and taxonomic composition of airborne bacteria over China coastal area.

摘要
Airborne bacteria may have significant impacts on aerosol properties, public health and ecosystem depending on their taxonomic composition and transport. This study investigated the seasonal and spatial variations of bacterial composition and richness over the east coast of China and the roles of East Asian monsoon played through synchronous sampling and 16S rRNA sequencing analysis of airborne bacteria at Huaniao island of the East China Sea (ECS) and the urban and rural sites of Shanghai. Airborne bacteria showed higher richness over the land sites than Huaniao island with the highest values found in the urban and rural springs associated with the growing plants. For the island, the maximal richness occurred in winter as the result of prevailing terrestrial winds controlled by East Asian winter monsoon. Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria and Cyanobacteria were found to be top three phyla, together accounting for 75 % of total airborne bacteria. Radiation-resistant Deinococcus, Methylobacterium belonging to Rhizobiales (related to vegetation) and Mastigocladopsis_PCC_10914 originating from marine ecosystem were indicator genera for urban, rural and island sites, respectively. The Bray-Curits dissimilarity of taxonomic composition between the island and two land sites was the lowest in winter with the representative genera over island also typically from the soil. Our results reveal that seasonal change of monsoon wind directions evidently affects the richness and taxonomic composition of airborne bacteria in China coastal area. Particularly, prevailing terrestrial winds lead to the dominance of land-derived bacteria over the coastal ECS which may have a potential impact on marine ecosystem.
