    This document summarizes a study on the bacterial communities found in sediments in the Chilika coastal lagoon in India. The study found that salinity levels and the presence of different types of macrophytes (aquatic plants) were major drivers in the spatial and temporal distribution patterns of bacterial communities. Specifically, distinct bacterial lineages were associated with different salinity regimes, seasons, locations, and the presence of the exotic weed P. karka versus the native seagrass H. uninervis. The bacterial communities exhibited clear biogeographical patterns linked to these biotic and abiotic environmental factors.

    Abstract
    Coastal lagoons are represented by steep gradients in physical, chemical, and biological parameters and are regarded as one of the
    most productive ecosystems in the world. These lagoons are at an intermediate position between the freshwater and marine water
    systems. Huge amount of influx of organic matter and nutrient load with the freshwater inputs can be seen in such lagoons. The
    increased influx of organic matter and nutrients fuel in the lagoon increases the chance of eutrophication. The sedimentary
    microbial communities play an important role in preventing eutrophication by supporting a diverse assemblage of aerobic and
    anaerobic microbial communities. Considering the importance of sedimentary bacterial communities, numerous studies have
    investigated their ecological roles and biogeographical patterns in a variety of aquatic ecosystems. Compared to the marine and
    freshwater ecosystems, estuarine coastal lagoons are highly dynamic, still are poorly understood with respect to their sedimentary
    communities. Our hypothesis was that bacterial communities would exhibit biogeographical patterns which would be strongly
    associated with the biotic and abiotic factors. Using Illumina sequencing of the 16S rRNA genes from bulk surface sediments, we
    investigated the sedimentary bacterial communities, their spatiotemporal distribution, and compared them with the rhizosphere
    sediment communities of an exotic weed; P. karka and a native seagrass species; H. uninervis in a brackish water estuarine
    lagoon, Chilika (India). Comparison of bacterial communities with the environmental factor was done using Redundancy
    analysis. Spatiotemporal patterns in bacterial communities were linked to specific biotic factors (e.g., presence and type of
    macrophyte) and abiotic factors (e.g., salinity) that drove the community composition. Comparative assessment of communities
    highlighted bacterial lineages that were responsible for segregating the sediment communities over distinct salinity regimes,
    seasons, locations, and presence and type of macrophytes. Several bacterial taxa were specific to one of these ecological factors
    suggesting that species-sorting processes drive specific biogeographical patterns in the bacterial populations. Overall, this study
    provides a comprehensive understanding of the spatiotemporal dynamics and functionality of sedimentary bacterial communities
    in a tropical brackish water coastal lagoon and highlighted the role of biotic and abiotic factors in generating the biogeographical
    patterns in the bacterial communities.
