	abstract = {Archaea are important participants in biogeochemical cycles of metal(loid)-polluted ecosystems, whereas archaeal structure and function in response to metal(loid) contamination remain poorly understood. Here, the effects of multiple metal(loid) pollution on the structure and function of archaeal communities were investigated in three zones within an abandoned sewage reservoir. We found that the high-contamination zone (Zone I) had higher archaeal diversity but a lower habitat niche breadth, relative to the mid-contamination zone (Zone II) and low-contamination zone (Zone III). Particularly, metal-resistant species represented by potential methanogens were markedly enriched in Zone I (cumulative relative abundance: 32.24\%) compared to Zone II (1.93\%) and Zone III (0.10\%), and closer inter-taxon connections and higher network complexity (based on node number, edge number, and degree) were also observed compared to other zones. Meanwhile, the higher abundances of potential metal-resistant and methanogenic functions in Zone I (0.24\% and 9.24\%, respectively) than in Zone II (0.08\% and 7.52\%) and Zone III (0.01\% and 1.03\%) suggested archaeal functional adaptation to complex metal (loid) contamination. More importantly, six bioavailable metal(loid)s (titanium, tin, nickel, chromium, cobalt, and zinc) were the main contributors to archaeal community variations, and metal(loid) pollution reinforced the role of deterministic processes, particularly homogeneous selection, in the archaeal community assembly.},
