Effects of different vegetation types (, , , and ) and reclamation years (15 and 20 years) on soil bacterial community structure in reclaimed Antaibao opencast mine areas were investigated using polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) and clone sequencing. For 20-year reclaimed soils, the significantly highest and lowest bacterial diversity were found in and stand, respectively, whereas no significant differences were found between the other three vegetation types. Under 15-year plantations, soil bacterial diversity index of was significantly higher than that of . Soil bacterial diversity index significantly increased in planted soils but decreased in treatment with the increase of reclaimed years. No significant change of soil bacterial community structure was observed in the same reclamation years based on the similarity coefficient analysis, cluster analysis and principal component analysis (PCA). Pearson correlation analysis demonstrated that bacterial diversity index was significantly positively correlated with soil pH. , , , , as well as which play important roles in the nitrogen cycle, degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and other organic matter, were identified by clone sequencing of the DGGE bands. Our results indicated that and were conducive to the recovery of soil bacterial diversity. The most dominant bacterial community from reclaimed mine soil would be beneficial for restoring wasteland contaminated soil and improving soil fertility.
