The production of both methane (CH4) and refractory dissolved organic matter (RDOM) depends on microbial consortia in inland waters, and it is unclear yet the link of these two processes and the underlying microbial regulation mechanisms. Therefore, a large-scale survey was conducted in China's inland waters, with the measurement of CH4 concentrations, DOM chemical composition, microbial community composition, and relative environmental parameters mainly by chromatographic, optical, mass spectrometric, and high-throughput sequencing analyses, to clarify the abovementioned questions. Here, we found a synchronous production of CH4 and RDOM linked by microbial consortia in inland waters. The increasing microbial cooperation driven by the keystone taxa (mainly Fluviicola and Polynucleobacter) could promote the transformation of labile DOM into RDOM and meanwhile benefit methanogenic microbial communities to produce CH4. As such, CH4 and RDOM showed consistent spatial differences, which were mainly influenced by total nitrogen and dissolved oxygen concentrations. This finding deepened the understanding of microbial-driven carbon transformation and will help to more accurately evaluate the carbon source-sink relationship in inland waters.
