“…Even though it is common for closely related taxa to exhibit similar ecological preferences, implementation of the long-read sequencing and species-level metagenomics enables resolution of divergent biogeographical patterns even for congeneric species. For example, distribution of Algoriphagus spp across sampling sites closely followed the optimum salinity conditions described in the literature: A. sanaruensis was associated with the low-salinity cluster; A. aquatilis was transitional for the low-salinity and East Group sites; A. marincola was distributed across sites with salinity above 10‰, and A. kandeliae had a preference for high salinity sites (> 20‰) [69][70][71][72] .…”

Saline lakes are rapidly drying out across the globe, particularly in Central Asia, due to climate change and anthropogenic activities. We present the results of a long-read next generation sequencing analysis of the 16S rRNA-based taxonomic structure of bacteriomes of the Tengiz-Korgalzhyn lakes system. We found that the shallow endorheic, mostly saline lakes of the system show unusually low bacterioplankton dispersal rates at species-level taxonomic resolution. The major environmental factor structuring the lake’s microbial communities was salinity. The dominant bacterial phyla of the lakes with high salinity included a significant proportion of marine and halophilic species. In sum, these results, which can be applied to other lake systems of the semi-arid regions, improve our understanding of the factors influencing lake microbiomes undergoing salinization in response to climate change and other anthropogenic factors. Our results show that finer taxonomic classification can provide new insights and improve our understanding of the environmental factors influencing the microbiomes of lakes undergoing salinization in response to climate change and other anthropogenic factors.
