TY  - JOUR
AB - We investigated the short-term dynamics of microbial composition and function in bioreactorswith inocula collected from full-scale and lab-based AD (anaerobic digestion) systems. TheBray-Curtis dissimilarity of both inocula was approximately 10% of the predicted KEGGpathway and 40% of the taxonomic composition, and yet resulted in a similar performance inmethane production, implying the variation of community composition may be decoupled fromperformance. However, the significant correlation of VFAs with taxonomic variation suggestedthat the pathways of anaerobic digestion could be different due to the varying genus. Thepredicted function of the significantly varying genus was mostly related to fermentation, whichstrengthened the conclusion that most microbial variation occurred within the fermentativespecies and led to alternative routes to result in similar methane production in methanogenicbioreactors. This finding sheds a light on the understanding of AD community regulation,which depends on the aims to recover intermediates or methane.
