The effects of nitrate availability and the presence of Glyceria maxima on the composition and activity of the dissimilatory nitrate-reducing bacterial community were studied in the laboratory. Four different concentrations of NO(inf3)(sup-), 0, 533, 1434, and 2,905 (mu)g of NO(inf3)(sup-)-N g of dry sediment(sup-1), were added to pots containing freshwater sediment, and the pots were then incubated for a period of 69 days. Upon harvest, NH(inf4)(sup+) was not detectable in sediment that received 0 or 533 (mu)g of NO(inf3)(sup-)-N g of dry sediment(sup-1). Nitrate concentrations in these pots ranged from 0 to 8 (mu)g of NO(inf3)(sup-)-N g of dry sediment(sup-1) at harvest. In pots that received 1,434 or 2,905 (mu)g of NO(inf3)(sup-)-N g of dry sediment(sup-1), final concentrations varied between 10 and 48 (mu)g of NH(inf4)(sup+)-N g of dry sediment(sup-1) and between 200 and 1,600 (mu)g of NO(inf3)(sup-)-N g of dry sediment(sup-1), respectively. Higher input levels of NO(inf3)(sup-) resulted in increased numbers of potential nitrate-reducing bacteria and higher potential nitrate-reducing activity in the rhizosphere. In sediment samples from the rhizosphere, the contribution of denitrification to the potential nitrate-reducing capacity varied from 8% under NO(inf3)(sup-)-limiting conditions to 58% when NO(inf3)(sup-) was in ample supply. In bulk sediment with excess NO(inf3)(sup-), this percentage was 44%. The nitrate-reducing community consisted almost entirely of NO(inf2)(sup-)-accumulating or NH(inf4)(sup+)-producing gram-positive species when NO(inf3)(sup-) was not added to the sediment. The addition of NO(inf3)(sup-) resulted in an increase of denitrifying Pseudomonas and Moraxella strains. The factor controlling the composition of the nitrate-reducing community when NO(inf3)(sup-) is limited is the presence of G. maxima. In sediment with excess NO(inf3)(sup-), nitrate availability determines the composition of the nitrate-reducing community.
