  2. 17. The role of allelopathy in microbial food webs

    Författare :Astrid Weissbach; Catherine Legrand; Ellen Van Donk; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Microbial food web; Allelopathy; Alexandrium tamarense; Prymnesium parvum; Infochemicals; marine plankton community; Freshwater ecology; Limnisk ekologi; Akvatisk ekologi; Aquatic Ecology;

    Sammanfattning : Phytoplankton produce allelochemicals; excreted chemical substances that are affecting other microorganisms in their direct environment.In my thesis, I investigated strain specific variability in the expression of allelochemicals of the harmful flagellate Prymnesium parvum, that is euryhaline but mainly bloom forming in brackish water.

  3. 18. Benthic invertebrate food webs in the Baltic Sea : Anthropogenic pressure effects and methodological advancements

    Författare :Julie Garrison; Francisco Nascimento; Ángel Borja; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; food web; trophic network; detritivore; Baltic Sea; macrofauna; marinbiologi; Marine Biology;

    Sammanfattning : Trophic interactions are ecologically important, as they structure communities, and globally important for the ecosystem functions that they facilitate. Anthropogenic pressures are altering the structure of food webs, their stability, and resilience to change. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Anoxic degradation of organic matter in lakes : implications for carbon cycling and aquatic food webs

    Författare :David Bastviken; Joseph M Gasol; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Ekonsystem i vatten; INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AREAS; TVÄRVETENSKAPLIGA FORSKNINGSOMRÅDEN;

    Sammanfattning : Considerable evidence from laboratory studies and marine environments suggests that degradation of organic matter (OM) is restricted under anoxic conditions compared to when molecular oxygen (O2) is present. However, other studies contradict this view since they found similar OM degradation rates and bacterial growth rates under both oxic and anoxic conditions in aquatic environments. LÄS MER

  5. 20. The Role of Picophytoplankton in Lake Food Webs

    Författare :Stina Drakare; Roger I. Jones; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology; picophytoplankton; competition; heterotrophic bacteria; nutrients; humic DOC; Biologi; Biology; Biologi; limnologi; Limnology;

    Sammanfattning : Picophytoplankton were inferior competitors for inorganic phosphorus compared to heterotrophic bacteria. This may be due to the source of energy available for the heterotrophs, while cell-size was of minor importance. However, picophytoplankton were superior to large phytoplankton in the competition for nutrients at low concentrations. LÄS MER
