Responses of phytoplankton and related microbial communities to changes in the limnological conditions of shallow lakes: a short-term cross-transplant experiment
We performed a short-term cross-transplant experiment (72 h) using dialysis bags in two shallow lakes with contrasting regimes (clear-vegetated and phytoplankton-turbid). We assessed the changes in the structure of the microbial planktonic communities in response to the variations in the limnologica...
