Taxonomic Shift Over a Phosphorus Gradient Affects the Stoichiometry and Fatty Acid Composition of Stream Periphyton

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, 2020
Phosphorus enrichment of stream ecosystems generally increases primary production in the benthos, but the consequences of eutrophication for the nutritional quality of periphyton for grazers are less clear. On short timescales, high phosphorus inputs may

Nutrient Exposure Alters Microbial Composition, Structure, and Mercury Methylating Activity in Periphyton in a Contaminated Watershed

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
The conversion of mercury (Hg) to monomethylmercury (MMHg) is a critical area of concern in global Hg cycling. Periphyton biofilms may harbor significant amounts of MMHg but little is known about the Hg-methylating potential of the periphyton microbiome.

The response of bacterial community to UVB was significantly different between immature periphyton and mature periphyton, but not for physiological indicators

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
Periphyton has important ecological functions. It can even exist in environments with strong ultraviolet radiation. However, knowledge of periphyton under ultraviolet is limited, which limits the understanding and application of periphyton in ...

Characteristics of stable nitrogen isotopes in particulate organic matter and periphyton of a subtropical Chinese watercourse, the Dashahe River

open access: yesKnowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2013
The stable nitrogen isotope ratios (δ15N) of particulate organic matter (POM) and periphyton were measured at sites along the Dashahe River, a short subtropical watercourse in SE China. δ15N values of both POM and periphyton
