AB  - The majority of oil from oceanic oil spills converges on coastal ecosystems such 
      as mangrove forests. A major challenge to mangrove bioremediation is defining the 
      mangrove's pollution levels and measuring its recuperation from pollution. 
      Bioindicators can provide a welcome tool for defining such recovery. To determine 
      if the microbial profiles reflected variation in the pollutants, samples from 
      different locations within a single mangrove with a history of exposure to oil 
      were chemically characterised, and the microbial populations were evaluated by a 
      comprehensive range of conventional and molecular methods. Multivariate 
      ordination of denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) microbial community 
      fingerprints revealed a pronounced separation between the sediment and 
      rhizosphere samples for all analysed bacterial communities (Bacteria, 
      Betaproteobacteria, Alphaproteobacteria, Actinobacteria and Pseudomonas). A 
      Mantel test revealed significant relationships between the sediment chemical 
      fertility and oil-derived pollutants, most of the bacterial community 
      fingerprints from sediment samples, and the counts by different cultivation 
      strategies. The level of total petroleum hydrocarbons was significantly 
      associated with the Bacteria and Betaproteobacteria fingerprints, whereas 
      anthracene and the total level of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons were 
      associated with the Actinobacteria. These results show that microbial communities 
      from the studied mangrove reflect the spatial variation of the chemicals in the 
      sediment, demonstrating the specific influences of oil-derived pollutants.
