Abstract excerpt

The vertical community structure of bacteria along a depth profile in the Eastern Tropical North Pacific Ocean (13 degrees N, 104 degrees W) was studied by flow cytometry measurement and 16S rRNA gene clone libraries analysis. Picoeukaryotes and Synechococcus peaked at 30 m and decreased sharply below 50 m, while Prochlorococcus peaked at both 30 and 100 m layers and disappeared below 200 m. Heterotrophic...
