What is Community Assemblages and Species Coexistence of Prokaryotes Controlled by Local Environmental Heterogeneity in a Cold Seep Water Column about?
The distribution and heterogeneity characteristics of microbial communities in cold seep water columns are significant factors governing the efficiency of methane filtering and carbon turnover. However, this process is poorly understood. The diversity of vertically stratified microbial communities and the factors controlling the community assemblage process in the water column above the Haima cold seep were investigated in this study. The prokaryotic community diversities varied distinctly with vertical changes in hydrochemistry. Cyanobacteria dominated the light-transmitting layers and Proteobacteria dominated the deeper layers. With respect to microbial community assemblages and co-occurrence networks, stochastic processes were particularly important in shaping prokaryotic communities. In the shallow (≥85 m) and mesopelagic water columns (600–800 m), microbial community characteristics were affected by deterministic processes, reduced network connectivity, and modularity. Microbial community diversities and assemblage processes along a vertical profile were influenced by the vertical variations in pH, temperature, DIC, and nutrients. Stochastic processes may have facilitated the
