Abstract The microbial ecology of meromictic lakes assessed with “omics” is still poorly studied compared to other aquatic systems. Here, a combination of metagenomics, high resolution sampling and detailed physical–chemical data gathering allowed to study the planktonic prokaryotic assemblages and metabolic capabilities in the crenogenic meromictic ...

Abstract Estuaries provide a suite of ecosystem services to people but are also under heavy stress from human development including excess nutrient loading and alterations in benthic habitat that affect nutrient cycling. Here we examine the interaction of two important and common ecosystem management priorities in estuaries: limiting eutrophication and

Rhizosphere Microbiome as an Underexplored Resource for Agroecosystem Sustainability: Insights From the Carrot Root Zone. [PDF]
The diagram represents the generalised pathways for the ecological activities mediated by the rhizosphere microbiome within crop‐soil interactions, based on existing literature. The conceptual pathways are adapted for the carrot root‐zone context described in this review. These activities include the transformation of organic matter, promotion of plant

Abstract Continental freshwater systems are particularly vulnerable to environmental variation. Climate change‐induced desertification and the anthropogenic exploitation of hydric resources result in the progressive evaporation and salinization of inland water bodies in many areas of the globe.

Physiology of purple sulfur bacteria forming macroscopic aggregates in Great Sippewissett Salt Marsh, Massachusetts [PDF]
Purple bacterial aggregates found in tidal pools of Great Sippewissett Salt Marsh (Falmouth, Cape Cod, MA) were investigated in order to elucidate the ecological significance of cell aggregation. Purple sulfur bacteria were the dominant microorganisms in

Abstract Aims We examined the effects of a mixture of contaminants found in agricultural watersheds on the gut microbiota and physiology of both the freshwater mussel Lampsilis cardium, and L. cardium host fish Micropterus salmoides. Methods and results Lampsilis cardium and M. salmoides were exposed to three concentrations of agricultural contaminants

Prokaryotic Diversity and Dynamics during Dinoflagellate Bloom Decays in Coastal Tunisian Waters
(1) Background: Harmful algal blooms (HABs) can negatively impact marine ecosystems, but few studies have evaluated the microbial diversity associated with HABs and its potential role in the fates of these proliferations.
