The Biodiversity of the Mediterranean Sea: Estimates, Patterns, and Threats (2010, background): “[134] showed that microbial communities tend to be similar in the horizontal scale and much more variable on the vertical scale, but these techniques are not appropriate to determine the number of species present and usually refer only to the dominant organisms.”
Influence of light and temperature on Prochlorococcus ecotype distributions in the Atlantic Ocean (2007, background): “Lateral population heterogeneity of marine microbes (i.e., patchiness), as determined by abundance or diversity, has been shown to be fairly low, within the range of 100–104 m, but to increase significantly in the mesoscale range (Zubkov et al. 2002; Ghiglione et al. 2005; Hewson et al. 2006).”
Seasonal changes in bacterioplankton nutrient limitation and their effects on bacterial community composition in the NW Mediterranean Sea (2006, background): “Seasonal changes in bacterioplankton composition are a common feature in temperate seas (Pinhassi & Hagström 2000, Schauer et al. 2003, Ghiglione et al. 2005, Morris et al. 2005).”
Spatial patterns of bacterial richness and evenness in the NW Mediterranean Sea explored by pyrosequencing of the 16S rRNA (2010, result): “The Blanes Bay Microbial Observatory (BBMO, www.icm.csic.es/bio/projects/ icmicrobis/bbmo/), close to the shore, has been the site of a large variety of studies describing the microbial component of the marine plankton.”
