Biogeochemical reduction and mobilization of sediment-bound arsenic (As) is the major concern for widespread groundwater As contamination in the middle Gangetic plains. The present work examines a microcosm based bio-stimulation study and substrate amendments over 45 days to analyze the bacterial community structure and distribution to indicate the possible in-situ bioremediation strategy in the area. Initially, Bacterial phyla Proteobacteria was predominantly present in all the samples, followed by Actinobacteria , Bacteroidetes, and Firmicutes whereas Cyanobacteria was noted as the minor group. In genus level, Delftia , Acinetobacter, Lysobacter, Bacillus, and Pseudomonas were the major groups of bacteria in the As-rich aquifer system, while Planctomycetes dominated the bio-stimulated samples, followed by a minute portion of Proteobacteria . Alpha diversity and Chaol curve further determined the species richness in the samples with an As tolerant capacity of 152.28 ppb. The presence of γ- Proteobacteria as the dominating member in high As-content water indicated their predominant role in As mobilization, whereas, dominance of α-Proteobacterial members in low As-content water indicated their involvement in As detoxification. The complete change in microbial community structure within the bio-stimulated conditions indicated the extensive role of arsenite-oxidizing microbial communities within different levels of As-contaminated areas in Bihar that will enlighten the significant role of these communities in As-biogeochemical cycle.
