Abstract This study presents the first multi‐year assessment quantifying the contribution of primary production to vertical carbon flux in the ultra‐oligotrophic southeastern Levantine basin of the Mediterranean Sea. Depth‐integrated (0–180 m) daily primary productivity (PP) was 25% higher in the mixed winter period than in the stratified period (123 ...

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 ...

Archaeal diversity in deep-sea sediments estimated by means of different Terminal-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphisms (T-RFLP) protocols [PDF]
Despite the increasing recognition of the quantitative importance of Archaea in all marine systems, the protocols for a rapid estimate of Archaeal diversity patterns in deep-sea sediments have been only poorly tested yet.

Wave‐driven transport controls bacterioplankton community differentiation among coral reef habitats
Abstract The existence of highly productive coral reefs within oligotrophic gyres is in part due to intensive recycling of macronutrients and organic matter by microbes. Therefore, characterizing reef bacterioplankton communities is key for understanding reef metabolism and biogeochemical transformations. We performed a high‐resolution survey of waters

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 ...

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.

Abstract While the influence of salinity on microbial diversity is well documented in marine and brackish ecosystems, the impact of different dissolved inorganic ion types remains largely unexplored. In this study, we assessed how ionic composition shapes planktonic bacterial community structure in inland saline aquatic habitats, compared to the ...
