Eight disinfection methods were applied to control biofilm contamination in domestic hot water system. The inactivation efficiency, responses of high- (≥1%), mid- (0.1% ~ 1%) and low-abundant taxa (≤0.1%) to disinfection, and interactions within and across three sub-communities were investigated. Ultraviolet was the most effective disinfection method for total bacteria and Escherichia coli, and chlorine dioxide had the highest inactivation efficiency on heterotrophic bacteria, while silver ions exhibited poor performance on all of them. At the phylum level, the responses of microorganisms to eight disinfection methods were different, but Proteobacteria and Firmicutes dominated in most samples. Eight disinfection methods had a greater impact on the proportion of high- and mid-abundant taxa than that of low-abundant taxa, and led to dissimilar transformations of genera among high-, mid- and low-abundant taxa in each sample. High-, mid- and low-abundant taxa of different samples showed similar structures and were roughly clustered into three Groups. Moreover, high-abundant taxa had more complex internal interactions than mid- and low-abundant taxa, and mainly presented co-occurrence patterns. The associations between high- and low-abundant taxa were close, and some low-abundant genera were identified as hub bacteria, such as Paracoccus, Thioalkalispira and Flavitalea. Furthermore, a total of 23 potential pathogens were detected in this study, and they mainly showed positive interactions, with Mycobacteria and Streptococcus as keystone genera. These results highlight the dissimilar responses of high-, mid- and low-abundant taxa to disinfection, and the critical role of some low-abundant genera in the microbial network, as well as the co-occurrence patterns among potential pathogens.
