Particle‐Associated Bacterioplankton Communities Across the Red Sea
ABSTRACT Pelagic particle‐associated bacterioplankton play crucial roles in marine ecosystems, influencing biogeochemical cycling and ecosystem functioning. However, their diversity, composition, and dynamics remain poorly understood, particularly in unique environments such as the Red Sea.

Bacterial communities in sand and seawater collected every 3 months from 10 beaches along the Mississippi Gulf coast were fundamentally different from each other. Bacterial communities in both habitats showed more temporal variation over the course of 15 months than spatial variation between beaches. ABSTRACT Coastal microbial communities play critical

Exploring Regional Biogeography of Abundant and Rare Bacteria in Soils With Long‐Read CycloneSEQ
ABSTRACT Background Rare microbial communities represent an important component of biodiversity in soil ecosystems, co‐existing with abundant species to drive ecosystem multifunctionality and maintain its stable operation. However, knowledge remains limited regarding the geographical distribution patterns and potential driving factors of microorganisms,

Jellyfish-associated bacterial communities and bacterioplankton in Indonesian Marine lakes [PDF]
In the present study, we compared communities of bacteria in two jellyfish species (the 'golden' jellyfish Mastigias cf.papua and the box jellyfish Tripedalia cf.cystophora) and water in three marine lakes located in the Berau region of northeastern Borneo, Indonesia.

Interplay of Spatial Structure and Interactions in Microbial Communities
A description of the interplay between microbial growth and interactions, the spatial structure of the environment and the spatial organisation of microbial populations can improve our understanding of the ecology of microbial communities. We review previous studies that highlight different aspects of this interplay.

Top‐Down and Bottom‐Up Processes Jointly Explain Mesopredator Movement and Foraging Ecology
This study integrates top‐down (polar bear habitat selection) and bottom‐up (fish distribution) processes to test how mesopredators (ringed seals) balance risk–reward tradeoffs in habitat selection. Ringed seals reduced their space use and foraging time in response to predation risk, yet accepted higher risk when prey diversity was elevated ...

Bacterioplankton community composition in a boreal forest lake [PDF]
The composition of the dominating populations within a bacterioplankton community was investigated in a mesotrophic, boreal forest lake. Composite samples were collected monthly throughout the lake for two years. The community composition was determined by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) of a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-amplified ...

Experimental Incubations Elicit Profound Changes in Community Transcription in OMZ Bacterioplankton [PDF]
Sequencing of microbial community RNA (metatranscriptome) is a useful approach for assessing gene expression in microorganisms from the natural environment. This method has revealed transcriptional patterns in situ, but can also be used to detect transcriptional cascades in microcosms following experimental perturbation.

Episodic blooms of voracious gelatinous zooplankton, such as the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi, affect pools of inorganic nutrients and dissolved organic carbon by intensive grazing activities and mucus release.

Increased variability of microbial communities in restored salt marshes nearly 30 years after tidal flow restoration [PDF]
We analyzed microbial diversity and community composition from four salt marsh sites that were impounded for 40–50 years and subsequently restored and four unimpounded sites in southeastern Connecticut over one growing season.
