Microbial diversity in machine oil contaminated soil was determined by high-throughput amplicon sequencing technology. The diversity of culturable microbes in the contaminated soil was further characterized using polymerase chain reaction method. Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes were the most dominant phyla and occupied 52.73 and 16.77%, respectively, while the most abundant genera were Methylotenera (21.62%) and Flavobacterium (3.06%) in the soil. In the culturable microbes, the major phyla were Firmicutes (46.15%) and Proteobacteria (37.36%) and the most abundant genera were Bacillus (42.86%) and Aeromonas (34.07%). Four isolated microbes with high machine oil degradation efficiency were selected to evaluate their characteristics on the oil degradation. All of them reached their highest oil degradation rate after 7 days of incubation. Most of them significantly increased their oil degradation rate by additional carbon or organic nitrogen source in the incubation medium. The oil degradation rate by combination of the four microbes at the same level was also higher than the rate from each individual microbe. The protocol and findings of this study are very useful for developing micro-bioremediation method to eliminate machine oil contaminants from soil.
