Links between metabolic plasticity and functional redundancy in freshwater bacterioplankton communities [PDF]
Metabolic plasticity and functional redundancy are fundamental properties of microbial communities, which shape their response to environmental forcing, and also mediate the relationship between community composition and function. Yet, the actual quantification of these emergent community properties has been elusive, and we thus do not know how they ...

Bias in culture-independent assessments of microbial biodiversity in the global ocean [PDF]
On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequencing, the SAR11 clade of marine bacteria has almost universal distribution, being detected as abundant sequences in all marine provinces. Yet SAR11 sequences are rarely detected in fosmid libraries, suggesting that the

Prokaryotic respiration and production in the meso- and bathypelagic realm of the eastern and western North Atlantic basin [PDF]
We measured prokaryotic production and respiration in the major water masses of the North Atlantic down to a depth of,4,000 m by following the progression of the two branches of North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) in the oceanic conveyor belt.

Hydrological variability and connectivity shape floodplain microbial community dynamics
Abstract Floodplains are dynamic interfaces between aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, where ecosystem functioning is strongly influenced by microbial communities. To investigate the composition of free‐living and particle‐associated prokaryotic and microbial eukaryotic communities, five interconnected study sites were sampled in one of the best ...

Contemporary Methods for Identification of Bacterioplankton Species-Specific Biogeochemical Functions [PDF]
Contemporary identification methods of biogeochemical functions of individual bacterioplankton species (taxa) in aquatic ecosystems are considered in this review.

By combining flow cytometry and high‐throughput sequencing, we reveal seasonal and spatial variations in the size, composition, and diversity of phytoplankton in the English Channel, highlighting the dynamics of pico‐, nano‐, and microphytoplankton and environmental factors, with the Seine Bay as a hotspot of taxonomic and functional diversity ...

Genomic and proteomic evidences unravel the UV-resistome of the poly-extremophile Acinetobacter sp. Ver3 [PDF]
Ultraviolet radiation can damage biomolecules, with detrimental or even lethal effects for life. Even though lower wavelengths are filtered by the ozone layer, a significant amount of harmful UV-B and UV-A radiation reach Earth?s surface, particularly in

Twenty‐Five Years of Shifting Ground: Reflections on Publishing and Editing in the Earth Sciences
Abstract As the recipient of the 2024 William Kaula Award, I was asked to write an essay that captures stories and lessons learned during a career of scholarly editing. Over the past 25 years, I witnessed dramatic changes in scholarly publishing, from print‐dominated journals to open access, and increases in digital tools, and data‐sharing practices ...

The bioavailability of organic matter (OM) to marine heterotrophic bacterioplankton is determined by both the chemical composition of OM and the microbial community composition. In the current study, changes in OM bioavailability were identified at Ocean
