Pyrosequencing analyses to determine soil bacterial communities were conducted with forty-two soil samples collected from rice paddy and forest/farmland soils (Group A and B, respectively) at a long-term As-contaminated site. Soil physicochemical properties, such as the concentrations of As, Fe, Al, and Mn, pH, organic matter content, and clay content, were found to be significantly different with land use, and more importantly, strongly affected the bacterial community structure of the soil samples. When fitting the soil properties onto a nonmetric multidimensional scale plot of soil bacterial communities, clay content was found to be the most important factor in clustering the bacterial communities (R2 = 0.4831, p-value = 0.001). Phylum Chloroflexi (-1.03 of bioplot score) and Planctomycetes (1.31 of bioplot score) showed a significant relationship with clay content in soil samples. Interestingly, thebacterial phylotypes linked to clay content were only found in the soil samples of group B with low clay content, and had a strong relationship to As contamination in the redundancy analysis and the correlation analysis.Our results suggest that clay content seems to be negatively related to As contamination in soils, which, in turn, strongly influences the structure of bacterial communities in As-contaminated soil.
