TL;DR: The microbial carbon pump is proposed as a conceptual framework to address the important, multifaceted biogeochemical problem of fixed carbon in the upper ocean.
Journal ArticleDOI
The ecology of Cytophaga–Flavobacteria in aquatic environments
TL;DR: This paper reviews recent studies that have applied molecular methods to examine uncultured Cytophaga–Flavobacteria in freshwaters and the oceans, with the ultimate goal of using this information to better understand the role of heterotrophic bacteria in carbon cycles and other biogeochemical processes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Natural Assemblages of Marine Proteobacteria and Members of the Cytophaga-Flavobacter Cluster Consuming Low- and High-Molecular-Weight Dissolved Organic Matter
TL;DR: It is found that utilization of even simple low-molecular-weight DOM components by bacteria differed across the major phylogenetic groups and often did not correlate with the relative abundance of these bacterial groups in estuarine and coastal environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Leucine incorporation and its potential as a measure of protein synthesis by bacteria in natural aquatic systems.
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the incorporation rate of [3H]leucine into a hot trichloroacetic acid-insoluble cell fraction can serve as an index of protein synthesis by bacterial assemblages in aquatic systems.
