Microbial community in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are affected by various environmental factors. The microbial communities from different WWTPs around world were compared by meta-analysis of the published high-throughput sequencing data of 16S rRNA of these WWTPs, the various environmental factors considered. Community richness indexes showed significant difference between altitude groups, and there was no latitudinal diversity gradient in WWTPs’ microbiomes. Climate was the most important influential factor and process was the second factor, and latitude and altitude contributed 5.51% and 4.78% of the overall variance of the data separately. Three significantly enriched bacterial communities in latitude and altitude respectively were showed by ternary plots. Mantel test illustrated that microbial community was strongly correlated with dissolved oxygen, temperature and pollutants concentrations. The prediction of potential functions revealed that microbial function structures were more stable than community structures. Some dominant bacteria in WWTPs have potential pathogenicity may pose serious threat to the environment and human health.
