• nirS was the dominant denitrifying gene in the CWs treating WWTP effluent.
• The presence of Typha latifolia encouraged the growth of nirK containing bacteria.
• Cattail litter stimulated the growth of bacteria containing nirS and nosZ gene.
• Plant biomass indirectly impacted the nitrite reductase via DO and carbon sources.
The effect of Typha latifolia and its litter on density and abundance of three denitrifying genes (nirS, nirK and nosZ) were investigated in six laboratory-scale SSF CW microcosms. Results showed that the copy numbers of nirS, nirK and nosZ in wetland microcosms were ranged between 108–109, 106–107 and 107–108 copies g−1, respectively. The presence of T. latifolia encouraged the growth of nirK containing bacteria. Addition of cattail litter could greatly stimulate the growth of bacteria containing nirS and nosZ gene. Path analysis illustrated that the presence of plants and litters had no significant direct impact on denitrifying genes, while it affected the denitrifying genes via alteration of dissolved oxygen and carbon sources.
