[0039] In the specific embodiments of the present application, the high-throughput sequencing is performed by Beijing Biomaike Biotechnology Co., Ltd.; the metagene sequencing is performed by Beijing Biomaike Biotechnology Co., Ltd.

[0040] The technical solutions provided by the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments, but they should not be construed as limiting the protection scope of the present invention.

[0041] Example 1

[0042] Water samples were collected from 14 points in the river. A portable multi-parameter water quality meter was used to measure the water temperature (T) and pH on site. A dissolved oxygen meter was used to measure the dissolved oxygen concentration (DO). After the water samples were brought back to the laboratory, basic water quality indicators were immediately tested. Ammonia nitrogen (NH4 + -N), total phosphorus (TP), total nitrogen (TN), nitrite (NO2 - -N) and nitrate (NO3 - -N); TOC analyzer was used to measure soluble organic carbon (TOC).

[0043] The water samples from each sampling point were filtered through a 0.22 μm acetate filter membrane, and about 500 mL to 1 L of water was filtered from each water sample. The filter membrane was collected and stored in a refrigerator at -80 °C for future use. The DNA in the collected filter membrane was extracted using a DNA extraction kit, and the paired double-end 250 bp strategy was used for sequencing using the Illumina MiSeq sequencing platform: the target fragment was the V4 variable region of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene (about 253 bp), the universal forward primer was 515F (5'-GTGCCAGCMGCCGCGGTAA-3', SEQ ID NO.1), and the universal reverse primer was 806R (5'-GGACTACHVGGGTWTCTAAT-3', SEQ ID NO.2). Long primers with sample tags and sequencing-specific primers were synthesized based on the universal primers, and the target fragments were amplified from the DNA extracted above. The amplified products were recovered and purified using agarose gel, and then subjected to high-throughput sequencing after purification. The raw data obtained by sequencing were subjected to Reads quality control, splicing, filtering and ASV clustering to obtain bacterial community data, including bacterial community composition and abundance. The top 200 ASVs with the highest relative abundance were selected for correlation analysis, and the bacterial community data with a correlation coefficient of >0.8 and a p-value <0.05 with the environmental factor data were retained.

[0044] The water samples from each sampling point were filtered through a 0.22 μm acetate filter membrane. Each water sample was filtered for about 500 mL to 1 L of water. The filter membrane was collected and stored in a refrigerator at -80 °C for future use. The Illumina MiSeq sequencing platform was used, and the paired double-end 250 bp strategy was used for sequencing. The raw data was quality controlled using fastp software, and the bowtie2 was used to align with the host genome sequence to remove host contamination and obtain the optimized sequence. The software MEGAHIT was used for metagenomic assembly, and contig sequences shorter than 300 bp were filtered. CD-HIT software was used to cluster virus operational taxonomic units to obtain virus community data, including virus community composition and abundance. The top 200 virus sequences with the highest relative abundance were selected for correlation analysis, and virus community data with correlation coefficients > 0.8 and p values ​​< 0.05 with the environmental factor data were retained.

[0045] The retained bacterial community data and viral community data were subjected to co-occurrence network analysis using the Hmisc software package in R language to construct a co-occurrence network between the viral community and the bacterial community, and to obtain the dominant bacterial phyla significantly correlated with the viral community. By analyzing the species composition of the bacterial community and the viral community at the detection point, it is possible to determine what environmental factors affect the point and evaluate the river pollution.

[0046] Example 2

[0047] The method in Example 1 was used to evaluate river pollution in August 2023 and January 2024.

[0048] 1. Study area and sample collection

[0049] The Songhua River Basin is located in the northern part of Northeast China, with a basin area of ​​557,200 square kilometers and an annual runoff of 76.2 billion cubic meters. The basin is located in the northern temperate monsoon climate zone, with four distinct seasons, warm and rainy summers, cold and dry winters, and a large temperature difference throughout the year. The average temperature for many years is between 3 and 5°C. The highest temperature is in July, with a daily average of 20 to 25°C, and the highest temperature has reached more than 40°C. The annual precipitation is 800 to 1,000 mm; the annual average flow is 81.9 cubic meters per second. The Songhua River in Jilin Province is located at 41°44′~45°24′N, 124°26′~128°50′E, and is the southern source of the Songhua River. The total length of the river is 795 km, and the basin area is 78,180 km2. Ten national / provincially controlled sections (Renjiadian W1, Lijiatun W3, Lanqi Bridge W4, Jiuzhan W6, Shaokou W7, Xiaobaiqi W8, Songhuajiang Village W9, Zhenjiangkou W11, Ningjiang W13, and Songlin Village W14) of the Songhua River mainstream in Jilin Province were collected. W5 and W12 are the outlets of Jilin Wastewater Treatment Plant and Songyuan Wastewater Treatment Plant, respectively, and W2 and W10 are Huifa River and Yinma River, two important tributaries of the Songhua River Basin in Jilin Province. At each location, water samples were collected from 0.1 m below the water surface, and 3 parallel water samples were collected at each sampling point. At each location, a total volume of 12 L of surface water was collected into a fully rinsed sterile container. After collection, the samples were immediately transported to the laboratory, stored in the dark at 4 ° C, and tested within 1 to 3 days. The longitude and latitude information of each sampling point is shown in Table 1.

[0052]

[0053] 2.1 In August 2023 (summer), the test results of the physical and chemical properties of river water at each sampling point are shown in Table 2.

[0054] Table 2 Physical and chemical parameters of river water at each sampling point

[0055]

[0056] 2.2 In January 2024 (in winter, data from points W10 and W14 were not collected due to problems such as thick ice on the water surface), the test results of the physical and chemical properties of river water at each sampling point are shown in Table 2.

[0057] Table 2 Physical and chemical parameters of river water at each sampling point

[0058]

[0059] 3.1 Apply metagenomic sequencing to water samples to obtain viral community data, such as Figure 1 and Figure 6As shown in the figure, at the family level, Myoviridae, Siphoviridae and Podoviridae are dominant. These viruses are also common water virus families. The average abundance of viruses is from high to low: Myoviridae, Siphoviridae, Podoviridae. Among them, the algal DNA virus family (Phycodnaviridae), which uses eukaryotic algae as natural hosts, has a relatively stable relative abundance in the basin, and the relative abundance is slightly higher in the upstream, which is due to the high water temperature in the upstream basin, which is suitable for the survival of algae. At the same time, a type of giant virus of the Mimiviridae family was also detected in the samples, which can infect a variety of phytoplankton and protozoa, and its relative abundance is higher in downstream samples. From the perspective of different geographical locations, there are differences in the relative abundance of dominant virus species at the family level in the upstream and downstream of the basin. The relative abundance of Myoviridae and Algal DNA Viridae is relatively close in the upstream, the relative abundance of Longiviridae and unclassified viruses is higher in the middle and lower reaches than in the upstream, and the Brachyviridae is enriched in the upstream. Overall, most viruses are bacteriophages that infect bacteria. Generally speaking, the main stream has a fast flow rate, while the tributaries are in a relatively slow flow state, which is easy for microorganisms to gather and proliferate. However, due to the diversity of tributaries flowing into the main stream, the probability of rare microorganisms appearing in the main stream water increases.

[0060] The Sperman rank correlation test was used to test the correlation between species at the specific family level and environmental factors, such as Figure 2 and 7 As shown in the figure, the relative abundance of virus communities in winter and summer is positively correlated with environmental factors. This is due to the frequent microbial activities and vigorous metabolism in summer, while pollutants accumulate in winter, leading to the complexity and interrelationship of virus communities. In winter, river freezing has a certain impact on the lack of viral diversity, resulting in an increase in pollutants, which has caused a significant change in the correlation between environmental factors and viral communities. Among them, Myoviridae and Brachyviridae are significantly positively correlated with TOC, T, DO and ammonia nitrogen. Temperature changes lead to changes in viral abundance, indicating that river freezing has a significant impact on the correlation of viral species, and there are obvious seasonal changes.

[0061] 3.2 High-throughput sequencing of water samples using 16S rRNA gene sequencing technology was performed to obtain bacterial community data, such as Figure 3 and Figure 8As shown in the figure, the first dominant phylum in both winter and summer is Proteobacteria, because Proteobacteria contains a large number of phototrophic, chemoautotrophic and chemoheterotrophic bacteria, which can utilize pollutants such as nitrogen and phosphorus in rivers and have strong adaptability in various water environments. Secondly, the sum of Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, Cyanobacteria and Bacteroidetes accounted for more than 53% in each sample, but the distribution of these phyla was different. In summer, with the increase of temperature, the dominant role of Bacteroidetes decreased, and the relative abundance of Cyanobacteria and Firmicutes increased significantly, because the thermophilic characteristics of cyanobacteria caused them to multiply in large numbers in summer.

[0062] The Sperman rank correlation test was used to test the correlation between species at a specific phylum level and environmental factors, such as Figure 4 and Fig. 9 The results showed that the strongest correlations in summer and winter were related to nitrate nitrogen and dissolved oxygen. Most bacterial phyla are nitrogen-fixing microorganisms, which promote nitrogen cycle in water bodies. At the same time, dissolved oxygen levels also affect the activity of microorganisms. At the phylum level, the relative abundance of Nitrospira in summer was negatively correlated with temperature (r=-0.71, p<0.01) and positively correlated with dissolved oxygen (r=0.7, p<0.01). This is because the water temperature is high in summer, and microorganisms grow more vigorously in nutrient-rich environments, which leads to large differences in microbial communities in different environments. In water bodies, if nitrifying bacteria are lacking, the ammonia nitrogen / nitrate / nitrite cycle system will be interrupted, which will lead to damage to the aquatic environment. At the same time, dissolved oxygen will also directly affect the changes in ammonia nitrogen concentration in water bodies. In winter samples, Bacteroidetes and Actinobacteria are dominant phyla compared to summer, accounting for about 22.5% of the total bacterial community. It may be due to the enhanced nitrification capacity of the system in winter, and Bacteroidetes plays a vital role in the nitrification of organic matter. In winter, temperature is the most important environmental factor affecting the microbial community in water bodies, and Fusobacteriota and others are suitable for survival in low temperature environments. TP is positively correlated with most bacterial phyla, which is conducive to the growth of microorganisms and causes a large number of microorganisms to reproduce. This is because the water body does not flow in winter, and a large amount of available phosphorus is easily accumulated in the water body. The results show that environmental driving factors can explain the differences in bacterial communities better than spatial scale.

[0063] 3.3 The symbiotic pattern between bacterial and viral communities was constructed based on correlation (Spearman|r|>0.8) and significance (p value<0.05), where the nodes and number reflect the complexity of the connection between bacterial and viral communities. Figure 5 and Fig.10 shown.

[0064] Depend on Figure 5 and Fig.10 It can be seen that the winter virus and bacterial meta-network have stronger correlations in winter than in summer, indicating their dominant role in bacterial and viral communities. At the same time, it shows a decreasing trend. This is because the rainfall in summer is large, the water body flows, and the winter is frozen, which leads to stronger correlations in winter nodes and closer viral associations. In both winter and summer, the positive correlation between viruses and bacteria is as high as more than 98%. There are some potential connections between viruses and bacterial hosts, indicating that this virus group has a wider host range. In winter, the tail bacteriophage phylum is significantly positively correlated with the planktonic bacteria phylum. While Urovircota (tail bacteriophage phylum) and NCLDV (nucleocytoplasmic large DNA virus) increase, actinomycetes, Bacteroidetes and Proteobacteria are also increasing. It can be predicted that Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Planktonic bacteria, and Actinomycetes are the main sources of viral hosts associated with a large number of viruses.

[0065] From the above results, it can be seen that nitrate nitrogen, nitrite nitrogen, ammonia nitrogen, total nitrogen and total phosphorus in the water body are significantly positively correlated with the composition of microbial communities in different seasons, indicating that these environmental factors are the main reasons affecting the differences in the composition of bacterial and viral communities in river basins. It can be seen that environmental factors can indicate the pollution levels of river basins in different seasons, and corresponding environmental pollution prevention and control measures should be taken.

[0066] The present invention can know what kind of environmental factors affect the point by detecting the bacterial and viral community structure of the water body, and can provide technical support for the pollution management and prevention of river ecosystems. Based on the correlation (Spearman|r|>0.8) and significance (p value<0.05) with environmental factors, the present invention retains the bacterial community and the viral community, constructs the symbiotic model between the bacterial community and the viral community, and finds that the bacterial community and the viral community in the river basin, especially the planktonic bacteria and the tail phage, can provide effective monitoring and management means for the governance of the river.

[0067] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
