This project investigates the role of bacteria in freshwater ecosystems, focusing on how growth limitations and predation influence bacterial community composition and function. It aims to isolate key bacterial populations to understand their metabolic strategies and interactions with predators.
Bacteria in freshwaters are key players in the degradation of organic carbon.
Their important functional role is related to the specific growth features of different genotypes within mixed assemblages.
Limitation by substrates and nutrients (bottom-up factors) and high predation by bacterivorous protists (top-down factors) together shape the composition of microbial assemblages.
Bacterial species have developed strategies that are either aimed at maximizing their competitive abilities for bottom…
