The abundance dynamics and composition of indigenous soil microbial communities were studied in soils polluted with naphthalene, dioctyl phthalate, diesel fuel, and crude oil. DGGE analysis of the 16S rRNA genes amplified from the total soil DNA revealed that the bacterial community of uncontaminated soil was more diverse and included no dominant species. In the soil samples polluted with the crude oil, diesel fuel, or dioctyl phthalate, Pseudomonas became the dominant bacteria since the third day of the experiment. In the soil polluted with naphthalene, two genera of bacteria (Pseudomonas and Paenibacillus) were dominant in population on the third day of the experiment, while on the 21th day of the experiment Arthrobacter became dominant. During the experiment, the average number of indigenous bacterial degraders increased approximately by two orders of magnitude. While the key genes of naphthalene catabolism, nahAc and nahH, were not detected in the pristine soil, they were found in a significant amount on the third day after naphthalene addition. Three degrader strains harboring the plasmids of naphthalene biodegradation (IncP-9 group) were isolated on the third day from the soil polluted with naphthalene. Two of these plasmids, although isolated from various degraders, were shown to be identical.
