Seasonal Gene Profiling in Tuz Lake with Regard to Biogeochemical Cycling
Abstract
Tuz Lake, a thalassohaline lake with a salt rate of 32%, is a unique habitat for a halophilic microbiome. Culture-dependent and independent methods have been applied to identify prokaryotic microbial diversity in Tuz Lake. However, the key processes and genes involved in biogeochemical cycles in Tuz Lake have not been investigated seasonally. The aim of the study is to investigate seasonal gene profiling in Tuz Lake associated with biogeochemical cycling and thereby reveal more about the ecosystem dynamics of this extreme environment. Therefore, the PICRUSt2 tool was applied to analyze the metabolic function of archaeal and bacterial diversity in Tuz Lake. As a result of metabolic functions based on 16S rDNA amplicon sequencing data, it was observed that methane production by H2 and CO2 by anaerobic archaea in Tuz Lake was the predominant methanogenesis pathway. It was determined that sulfur oxidation was the dominant sulfur metabolism, while the reductive citric acid cycle was the dominant carbon fixation pathway.
