The effects of Rhodopseudomonas capsulata (R. capsulata) in the treated effluent of soybean processing wastewater (SPW) on the remediation of imidacloprid in soil, soil fertility, and the microbial community structure in soil were studied. Compared with the control group, with the addition of effluent containing R. capsulata, imidacloprid was effectively removed, soil fertility was enhanced, and the microbial community structure was improved. Molecular analysis indicated that imidacloprid could exert induction effects on expression of cpm gene and regulation effects on the synthesis of cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450) by activating HKs gene in two-component system (TCS). For R. capsulata, this induction process required 1 day. The synthesis of P450 occurred 1 day after inoculation, because R. capsulata are a type of archaea and imidacloprid is an environmental stress. Before expression of the cpm gene and synthesis of P450, R. capsulata need a period of time to adapt to external imidacloprid stimulation. However, the lack of organic matter in the soil cannot sustain R. capsulata growth for more than 1 day. In four groups with added effluent, the remaining organic matter in the effluent provided a sufficient carbon source and energy for R. capsulata. Five days later, the microbial community structure was improved by R. capsulata in the soil. The new technique could be used to remediate imidacloprid, enhance soil fertility, treat SPW and realize the recycling and reuse of wastewater and R. capsulata cells.
