Dynamic bacterial assembly driven by Streptomyces griseorubens JSD-1 inoculants correspond to composting performance in swine manure and rice straw co-composting.

The effect of Streptomyces griseorubens JSD-1 inoculant on composting performance and bacterial community assembly during the swine manure and rice straw co-composting was studied by a high-throughput pyrosequencing technology. The JSD-1 inoculant contributed to a higher temperature (maximum 66.8 °C), a longer thermophilic phase (46 days), and a lower bacterial diversity in JSD-1 compost. The principle component analysis confirmed that JSD-1 inoculant significantly reshaped the microbial communities. The difference in genera significantly increased during both composting processes. The predominant biomarkers were members of Bacteroidetes in JSD-1 composting. The network analysis also showed different chief "connecting" genera in both composts. Moreover, JSD-1 inoculant increased the total nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium content in composts. The redundancy analysis showed that the bacterial community was mainly influenced by temperature; additionally, the nutrient contents were positively correlated with temperature. These results demonstrated that JSD-1 inoculant drove the bacterial assembly to induce physicochemical property changes in co-composting.
