Photosynthetic picoplankton dynamics in Lake Tahoe: temporal and spatial niche partitioning among prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells
Dynamics of prokaryotic and eukaryotic picophytoplankton were investigated over a 2-year time period using flow cytometry and combined with an in situ experiment in Lake Tahoe, USA to better characterize to which extent environmental factors control these communities. Pronounced seasonal patterns and clear temporal and spatial partitioning were observed between picocyanobacteria and picoeukaryo...
متن کاملSeasonal Abundance, Biomass and Morphological Diversity of Picoplankton in Lake Superior: Importance of Water Column Mixing
Pico and nano-sized plankton play an important role in regulating the trophic dynamics and key biogeochemical cycles in most pelagic environments, such changes in their abundance and population dynamics can alter ecosystem-level changes [1,2]. Both heterotrophic (Hpico) and phototrophic (Ppico) picoplankton are particularly important in oligotrophic lakes, with deep water column depths and long...
متن کاملTropheus Evolution In Tanganyika Lake
African lakes have produced striking variation in cichlid fish fauna. Lake Tanganyika, whose age is estimated at 9 to 12,000,000 years, is the oldest East African lake and hides morphologically, genetically and behaviorally diverse group cichlid fish. Many of the more than 200 described species is divided into geographically and genetically distinct populations that differ primarily in their co...
متن کاملDepth and substratum differentiations among coexisting herbivorous cichlids in Lake Tanganyika
Cichlid fish in Lake Tanganyika represent a system of adaptive radiation in which eight ancestral lineages have diversified into hundreds of species through adaptation to various niches. However, Tanganyikan cichlids have been thought to be oversaturated, that is, the species number exceeds the number of niches and ecologically equivalent and competitively even species coexist. However, recent ...
متن کاملComparative study of growth patterns Alburnoides namaki Bogutskaya and Coad, 2009 in the Salt Lake Basin
To study the growth patterns of Alburnoides namaki in the salt lake, For this purpose a total of 325 specimens were sampled using by By hand trawl net with two centimeters mesh (20 mm distance from node to node) in winter of 2018. Male to female sex ratio in the population studied showed There was no significant difference between males and females in studied areas (X2 Gloushjerd=0.074, X2 Yunj...
