ABSTRACT Dinoflagellates and ciliates are important grazers of primary production in the Northeast Pacific but knowledge of their taxonomic composition and depth‐distribution is limited. These organisms also display a variety of heterotrophic feeding modes including heterotrophy, mixotrophy, and parasitism.

Bacterioplankton community in Chesapeake Bay: Predictable or random assemblages [PDF]
We monitored bacterioplankton communities from Chesapeake Bay over 2 years (2002–2004) by use of denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) of PCR-amplified 16S rRNA gene. Chesapeake Bay bacterioplankton exhibited a repeatable annual pattern and strong seasonal shifts.

Redox-specialized bacterioplankton metacommunity in a temperate estuary. [PDF]
This study explored the spatiotemporal dynamics of the bacterioplankton community composition in the Gulf of Finland (easternmost sub-basin of the Baltic Sea) based on phylogenetic analysis of 16S rDNA sequences acquired from community samples via ...

Analysis of Composition and Structure of Coastal to Mesopelagic Bacterioplankton Communities in the Northern Gulf of Mexico [PDF]
16S rRNA gene amplicons were pyrosequenced to assess bacterioplankton community composition, diversity, and phylogenetic community structure for 17 stations in the northern Gulf of Mexico (nGoM) sampled in March 2010.

Aqueous extracts from Pistia stratiotes and Pontederia crassipes inhibit Microcystis aeruginosa while stimulating its associated microbiota. Reintroduction of microbiota into fresh cyanobacterial cultures reduced allelopathic effects, likely through allelochemical degradation and antioxidative responses.

Bacterioplankton communities in a high-altitude freshwater wetland
Microbial communities play a crucial role in various biogeochemical processes in aquatic ecosystems. However, existing knowledge on microbial communities in the waters of wetlands is still very scant. The objective of the present study was to investigate the bacterioplankton community in the Luoshijiang Wetland, a high-altitude freshwater wetland in ...

Influence of coral and algal exudates on microbially mediated reef metabolism. [PDF]
Benthic primary producers in tropical reef ecosystems can alter biogeochemical cycling and microbial processes in the surrounding seawater. In order to quantify these influences, we measured rates of photosynthesis, respiration, and dissolved organic ...

Assessing Prokaryotic Benthic Communities in the Red Sea
Prokaryotic benthic communities in the Red Sea are shaped by depth, latitude, and oxygen availability. Deep‐sea communities exhibited low variance in OTU richness, while shallower communities showed higher OTU richness towards the Southern Red Sea. Extreme environments supported specialised microbial communities likely adapted to extreme conditions ...
