pH is an important factor that shapes the structure of bacterial communities. However, we have very limited information about patterns and processes by which overall bacterioplankton communities assemble across wide gradients in natural freshwater lakes. Here, used pyrosequencing to analyze 25 discrete lakes Denmark with levels ranging from 3.8 8.8. We found was key impacting lacustrine community assembly. More acidic imposed stronger environmental filtering, decreased richness evenness...

The current climate warming and eutrophication are known to interactively threaten freshwater biodiversity; however, the interactive effects on lacustrine bacterioplankton diversity remain be determined. Here, we analyzed spring community composition (BCC) in 24 outdoor, flow-through mesocosms (mimicking shallow lake environments) under 3 temperature scenarios 2 nutrient regimes. Our results revealed that neither long-term (8.5 years) nor enrichment had significant alpha diversity, whereas...

Understanding the large-scale patterns of microbial functional diversity is essential for anticipating climate change impacts on ecosystems worldwide. However, studies biogeography remain scarce microorganisms, especially in freshwater ecosystems. Here we study 15,289 genes stream biofilm microbes along three elevational gradients Norway, Spain and China.

Epibiotic bacteria on surfaces of submerged macrophytes play important roles in the ecological processes shallow lakes. However, their community ecology and dynamics are far from understood comparison with those bacterioplankton. Here, we conducted a comparative study species diversity composition epibiotic bacterial surrounding bacterioplankton communities common macrophyte, Potamogeton crispus, 12 lakes at regional scale China. We found that different freshwater lakes, possessed higher...

Abstract Bacterial communities comprise large numbers of species and normally include a few abundant taxa many rare taxa. These two subcommunities may have fundamentally different ecological roles, it is not clear whether their diversity patterns along elevation gradients vary. In this study, we investigated the bacterioplankton subcommunities, i.e., bacterioplankton, in lakes across gradual elevations from 525 m to 4652 at Siguniang Mountain western China via high‐throughput sequencing...

The influence of filter-feeding bivalves on plankton communities, nutrients, and water quality in a given aquatic ecosystem is so profound that they can be considered engineers. In 70-day mesocosm experiment, we tested the hypothesis Corbicula fluminea would change community structure by reducing small zooplankton large phytoplankton improve nutrients. We monitored levels nitrogen phosphorus, organic suspended solids (OSS), light at sediment surface. Within plankton, biomass (as Chl a,...

A fundamental goal of reservoir ecosystem management is to understand bacterial biogeographic patterns and the mechanisms shaping them at a regional scale. However, little known about how eutrophication, major water quality challenge in reservoirs, influences sediment subtropical regions. In this study, communities were sampled from 21 reservoirs Hanjiang river basin, southern China, spanning trophic states oligotrophic eutrophic. Our findings demonstrated that eutrophication-driven changes...

Different forms of nitrogen (N) are deposited on the Qinghai-Tibetan plateau (QTP), while their differential effects soil methanotrophs and activity remain elusive. We constructed microcosms amended with different N fertilizers (ammonia, nitrate urea) using soils sampled from a swamp meadow QTP. The responses active to were determined by stable isotope probing 5% 13C-methane. At early stage incubation, all fertilizers, especially urea, suppressed methane oxidation compared control. rate...

ABSTRACT Large amounts of epiphytic bacteria live on the leaf surfaces submerged macrophytes in freshwater lakes. Despite their important roles affecting host plant's health and biogeochemical cycling, knowledge about assembly is not sufficient. We studied two cohabiting plant species Taihu Lake, China. In comparison with identity geographic distance, plant-growing season played a prominent role driving alpha beta diversity (compositional variations) bacterial communities. Phylogeny-based...

Thermal effluents from nuclear power plants greatly change the environmental and ecological conditions of receiving marine water body, but knowledge about their impact on microbial ecology is limited. Here we used high-throughput sequencing 16S rRNA gene to examine bacterioplankton metacommunity assembly across thermal gradients in two representative seasons (i.e., winter summer) a subtropical bay located northern coast South China Sea. We found high heterogeneity community compositions...
