The impact of human activities on marine bacteria was primarily studied and characteristics of bacteria communities in different areas were analyzed. A total of 396 strains were obtained. These strains belong to 4 phyla, 9 classes and 146 species according to 16S rDNA sequences alignment. For 32 strains, the 16S rDNA sequences similarities between isolated strains and their most closely related species were lower than 98%. The result indicated that there are abundant microbial diversity and a large number of unknown microbial resources in the East China Sea. Isolated strains were dominated byy-proteobacteria (64%), ct-proteobacteria (18%) and Firmicutes (15%). Actinobacteria and Bacteroidetes were less than 3%. Microbial community composition, diversity and abundance among areas with varies distances from land were different. The far the regions from the land, the lower the Shannon index (H') and the Margalef index (DMg) values were.展开更多
