Natural seawater（10.000 L） was artificially polluted with crude oil（1 L） and（1） inorganic nutrients（Biostimulating Mesocosm, BM）,（2） inorganic nutrients and an inoculum of Alcanivorax borkumensis SK2（Single Bioaugmentation Mesocosm, SBM）,（3） inorganic nutrients and inoculums of A. borkumensis SK2 and Thalassolituus oleivorans MIL-1（Consortium Bioaugmentation Mesocosm, CBM）. During the experimental period（20 days）, samples were taken from each mesocosm and the community structure was analyzed by PCR–DGGE. The 16 S r RNA gene DGGE banding patterns and sequence analysis demonstrated that biostimulation had the lowest effect on microbial biodiversity in the mesocosms; however, the biodiversity of the marine microbial community dramatically decreased in the CBM（Shannon index was 0.6 in T3）.
