| Abstract |
Many Artificial Reefs (ARs) have been used worldwide for marine habitat and coral reef restoration. However, the microbial community structure that colonize the ARs and their progressive development have been seldom investigated. In this study, the successive development of the microbial communities on environmentally friendly Artificial Biological Reef structures (ABRs)R made of special concrete supported with bioactive materials collected from marine algal sources were studied. Three seasons (spring, summer and autumn), three coral reef localities and control models (SCE) without bioactive material and (NCE) made of normal cement were compared. The structure of the microbial pattern exhibited successive shifts from the natural environment to the ABRs supported with bioactive materials (ABAM). Cyanobacteria, Proteobacteria, and Planctomycetota were shown to be the most three dominant phyla. Their relative abundances pointedly increased on ABAM and SCE models compared to the environment. Amplicon Sequence Variant (ASV) Richness and Shannon index were obviously higher on ABAM models and showed significant positive relationship with that of macrobenthos than those on the controls and the natural reef (XR). Our results offer successful establishment of healthy microbial films on the ABR surfaces enhanced the restoration of macrobenthic community in the damaged coral reefs which better understands the ecological role of the ABRs. |
