The Poyang Lake Watershed (PLW) is regarded as an air temperature moderator, as well as a wind energy, food resources and good habitat in the Jiangxi Province, People&rsquo:s Republic of China. However, with the increasing of anthropogenic disturbance on PLW, there are few studies focused on the effects of human activities on microbial composition in Poyang Lake. In the present study, a high-throughput sequencing method was used to identify the microbial composition in water and sludge in Dahuchi (DHC, sub-lake of Poyang Lake National Nature Reserve), Shahu (SH, sub-lake of Poyang Lake National Nature Reserve), Nanhu (NH, sub-lake out of Poyang Lake National Nature Reserve), Zhelinhu (ZLH, artificial reservoir), Sixiahu (SXH, sub-lake artificially isolated from Poyang Lake) and Qianhu (QH, urban lake). Results of the present study illustrated the various bacterial diversity between different lakes, for example, at the phylum level, Actinobacteria and Cyanobacteria showed low abundance in water samples of ZLH and QH, and high abundance in DHC. In addition, anthropogenic disturbance and human activities decreased the abundance of probiotic bacteria (Actinobacteria, Cyanobacteria, Chloroflexi and Acidobacteria) and increased the abundance of pathogenic bacteria (Acinetobacter, Aeromonas and Noviherbaspirillum). The enrichment of pathogenic bacteria in polluted lakes, in turn, may cause potential threats to human health.
