A soil bacterial consortium that was grown on diesel fuel and consisted of more than 10 members from different genera was maintained through repetitive subculturing and was utilized as a practical model to investigate a bacterial community that was continuously exposed to petroleum hydrocarbons. Through metagenomics analyses, consortium member isolation, growth assays, and metabolite identification which supported the linkage of genomic data and functionality, two pioneering genera, Sphingobium and Pseudomonas, whose catabolic capabilities were differentiated, were found to be responsible for the creation of specialized ecol. niches that were apparently occupied by other bacterial members for survival within the consortium. Coexisting genera Achromobacter and Cupriavidus maintained their existence in the consortium through metabolic dependencies by utilizing hydrocarbon biotransformation products of pioneer metabolism, which was confirmed through growth tests and identification of biotransformation products of the isolated strains. Pioneering Sphingobium and Pseudomonas spp. utilized relatively water-insoluble hydrocarbon parent compounds and facilitated the development of a consortium community structure that resulted in the creation of niches in response to diesel fuel exposure which were created through the production of more-water-soluble biotransformation products available to cocolonizers. That these and other organisms were still present in the consortium after multiple transfers spanning 15 years provided evidence for these ecol. niches. Member survival through occupation of these niches led to robustness of each group within the multispecies bacterial community. Overall, these results contribute to our understanding of the complex ecol. relationships that may evolve during prokaryotic hydrocarbon pollutant biodegradation
