The decomposition rate is influenced by water temperature, leaf characteristics, and aquatic saprotrophic microbial communities. Although the microbial agents &lt;i&gt;Phytophthora lacustris&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Phytophthora gonapodyides&lt;/i&gt; are frequently isolated from submerged litter, their ecological role in decomposition and their leaf and temperature preferences are largely unknown.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;In this study, we surveyed &lt;i&gt;Phytophthora&lt;/i&gt; colonisation of naturally occurring leaf litter in 26 streams across an altitudinal gradient in the Pyrenees (NE Spain). At 14 of these sites, we also studied &lt;i&gt;Phytophthora&lt;/i&gt; colonisation and decomposition (i.e., area and mass loss) of &lt;i&gt;Alnus, Populus&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Quercus&lt;/i&gt; leaves for 3 months using baiting bags, mimicking the decomposition of leaves that reach streams during leaf fall in autumn. In both experiments, &lt;i&gt;Phytophthora&lt;/i&gt; were isolated and identified by sequencing of the ITS region.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Leaf species was the main determinant of decomposition, with &lt;i&gt;Alnus&lt;/i&gt; leaves decomposing more rapidly than less labile &lt;i&gt;Quercus&lt;/i&gt; leaves. The presence of saprotrophic &lt;i&gt;Phytophthora&lt;/i&gt; species also correlated with mass loss, especially in the later stages of decomposition. Altitude and climate had the least impact on decomposition, mainly affecting decomposition at the beginning of the decomposition process. The two most common &lt;i&gt;Phytophthora&lt;/i&gt; species in Pyrenean streams were &lt;i&gt;P. lacustris&lt;/i&gt; (78% of streams) and &lt;i&gt;P. gonapodyides&lt;/i&gt; (75%). &lt;i&gt;Phytophthora lacustris&lt;/i&gt; was limited to warmer regions, which could be because it has a higher drought-tolerance than &lt;i&gt;P. gonapodyides&lt;/i&gt;. Compared with &lt;i&gt;P. lacustris&lt;/i&gt;, &lt;i&gt;P. gonapodyides&lt;/i&gt; preferred leaves with a lower nitrogen (N) concentration and a slower decomposition.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Overall, leaf litter decomposition was correlated with the presence of saprotrophic &lt;i&gt;Phytophthora&lt;/i&gt; species: &lt;i&gt;P. gonapodyides&lt;/i&gt; was found in leaves that were less decomposed (across N-rich and N-poor litter species) than those of &lt;i&gt;P. lacustris&lt;/i&gt;, indicating that they may play different roles in the decomposition process. These species differed in their tolerance to higher and lower temperatures and in their leaf chemical composition preference and, therefore, their ecological niche also differed.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Predicted temperature increases could reduce the potential distribution of &lt;i&gt;P. gonapodyides&lt;/i&gt;, but the implications for the decomposition of N-poor litter at the early stage of the decomposition process would depend on the extent of the contribution of &lt;i&gt;P. gonapodyides&lt;/i&gt; to ","PeriodicalId":12365,"journal":{"name":"Freshwater Biology","volume":"71 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2026-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147696258","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accordingly, this study systematically investigates the spatial heterogeneity of microbially regulated carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) cycling processes, their associated functional genes, key functional taxa and dominant factors in a typical floodplain lake (Poyang Lake).&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;We analysed the spatial heterogeneity of functional pathways, functional genes and the key microbial taxa involved in C, N and S cycling across areas with different hydrological conditions within a floodplain lake. Correlations between cycling of C, N and S were further examined at both the functional gene and metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) levels. In addition, we identified the potential factors influencing the putative coupling of C, N and S cycling processes and how they are shaped by spatial variation in hydrological conditions.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Results revealed an overall lower abundance of functional pathways and genes involved in C, N and S cycling in the sub-lake area compared to the channel and main lake areas. The functional gene co-occurrence network and MAGs-based analysis revealed that the coupling of C, N and S cycling in the sub-lake area was less complex and less restricted than expected, with higher modularity than the channel and main lake areas. The most important factors controlling potential coupled C, N and S cycles in the channel and the main lake areas were concentrations of nitrate nitrogen (NO&lt;sub&gt;3&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;sup&gt;−&lt;/sup&gt;-N), dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and pH levels. Conversely, dissolved total nitrogen (DTN), conductivity (COND) and NO&lt;sub&gt;3&lt;/sub&gt;&lt;sup&gt;−&lt;/sup&gt;-N were mainly responsible for the linkage of C, N and S cycling processes in the sub-lake area.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;Seven medium-quality MAGs were found to contain multiple functional genes responsible for C, N and S cycling processes, suggesting a potential microbial basis for the coupling. Networks of C, N and S functional genes and comparison with null models further strengthened the evidence for such coupling. Microbially mediated redox reactions and organic matter decomposition were the main processes behind the potentially coupled C, N and S cycles, which were more intense in the main lake and channel areas than sub-lake areas.&lt;/li&gt;\u0000 \u0000 \u0000 &lt;li&gt;This study elucidates key processes and putative coupling mechanisms of C, N and S cycling and their associated driving factors while highlighting the importance of hydrological processes in characterising the regional distribution of microbial functions in a floodplain lake system.
