Lotic biofilm community structure and pesticide tolerance along a contamination gradient in a vineyard area (2007, background): “(4) Bacteria may be sensitive to changes in the eukaryotic components of biofilms, particularly microalgae (Rier & Stevenson 2002, Gao et al. 2004), without being directly affected by pesticides.”
Does nutrient enrichment decouple algal–bacterial production in periphyton? (2008, methodology): “Nutrient regeneration as a basis for trophic coupling Based on evidence gathered in this and other studies (Cotner and Biddanda 2002, Rier and Stevenson 2001, 2002, Carr et al. 2005), we suggest that nutrient deficiency strengthens trophic coupling between algae and bacteria in the epilithon of…”
Algal regulation of extracellular enzyme activity in stream microbial communities associated with inert substrata and detritus (2007, result): “Our observations are consistent with other studies that have reported higher levels of heterotro- phic biomass and metabolism in biofilms exposed to light (Romani and Sabater 1999, Rier and Stevenson 2002, Romani et al. 2004).”
Removal of pharmaceuticals and personal care products from wastewater using algae-based technologies: a review (2017, background): “Competition for nutrients and spaces has been observed in many nutrient-limiting environments (Liu et al. 2016; Rier and Stevenson 2002; Scott et al. 2008), but may not be the case in wastewater.”
