Abstract excerpt
We examined the impact of nutrient conditions (carbon and phosphorus limitation) and grazing by protozoans on the phenotypic community structure of freshwater bacteria in continuous culture systems. Lakewater bacteria were grown on mineral medium, which was supplemented with glucose and amino acids and adjusted by different phosphorus concentrations to achieve either carbon or phosphorus limitation. Each nutrient...
