Dispersal-mediated trophic interactions can generate apparent patterns of dispersal limitation in aquatic metacommunities [PDF]
Dispersal is a major organising force in metacommunities, which may facilitate compositional responses of local communities to environmental change and affect ecosystem function.

Stream bacterioplankton communities, a crucial component of aquatic ecosystems and surface water quality, are shaped by environmental selection (i.e., changes in taxa abundance associated with more or less favorable abiotic conditions) and passive ...

Biofloc technology (BFT) has recently gained considerable attention as a sustainable method in shrimp aquaculture. In a successful BFT system, microbial communities are considered a crucial component in their ability to both improve water quality and ...

Seasonal changes in microbial dissolved organic sulfur transformations in coastal waters [PDF]
The marine trace gas dimethylsulfide (DMS) is the single most important biogenic source of atmospheric sulfur, accounting for up to 80% of global biogenic sulfur emissions.

Combined Carbohydrates Support Rich Communities of Particle-Associated Marine Bacterioplankton [PDF]
Carbohydrates represent an important fraction of labile and semi-labile marine organic matter that is mainly comprised of exopolymeric substances derived from phytoplankton exudation and decay. This study investigates the composition of total combined carbohydrates (tCCHO; >1 kDa) and the community development of free-living (0.2-3 μm) and particle ...

Spatiotemporal variation of the bacterioplankton community in the German Bight: from estuarine to offshore regions [PDF]
Marine microbial biogeography has been studied intensively; however few studies address community variation across temporal and spatial scales simultaneously so far.

Effects of large river dam regulation on bacterioplankton community structure [PDF]
Large rivers are commonly regulated by damming, yet the effects of such disruption on prokaryotic communities have seldom been studied. We describe the effects of the three large reservoirs of the Ebro River (NE Iberian Peninsula) on bacterioplankton assemblages by comparing several sites located before and after the impoundments on three occasions. We

Biogeography of Southern Ocean Active Prokaryotic Communities Over a Large Spatial Scale
The activity of marine microorganisms depends on community composition, yet, in some oceans, less is known about the environmental and ecological processes that structure their distribution.

AbstractMarine microorganisms form complex communities of interacting organisms that influence central ecosystem functions in the ocean such as primary production and nutrient cycling. Identifying the mechanisms controlling their assembly and activities is a major challenge in microbial ecology.

Bacterioplankton Communities in Dissolved Organic Carbon-Rich Amazonian Black Water
The Amazon basin discharge carries an important load of terrestrially derived dissolved organic matter (DOM) to the ocean. The bacterioplankton from this basin potentially plays important roles in transforming this allochthonous carbon, which has consequences on marine primary productivity and global carbon sequestration.
