Cyanobacterial blooms have considerable effects on lacustrine microbial communities. The current study explored the temporal pattern of sedimentary archaea and bacteria during cyanobacterial bloom in a eutrophic lake. With the sampling period divided into bloom phase, interval phase and end phase according to the variation of physicochemical parameters, the structures and functions of both kingdoms presented a significant difference among phases. Bloom phases could be characterized with the lowest diversity and up-regulated functions in biodegradation of cyanobacterial metabolites driven by bacteria. Archaeal community showed an increased metabolic function during interval phases, including active methanogenesis sensitive to carbon input. The highest diversity and an enrichment of hub genera in microbial network were both observed in end phase, allowing for closer cooperation among groups involved in cyanobacteria-derived organic matter transformation. Although the archaeal community was less variable or diverse than bacteria, methanogenic functions dramatically fluctuated with cyanobacterial dynamics. And microbial groups related to methane cycling played an important role in microbial network. The results provided new insights into temporal dynamics of lacustrine microbial communities and microbial co-occurrence, and highlighted the significant ecological role of methane cycling-related microbes in lake sediments under the influence of cyanobacterial blooms.
