Ciliate diversity in cold water spring sources in Iceland
Cold groundwater springs at the edges of lava fields along the volcanic active zone in Iceland are an interesting habitat, presenting an ecotone between groundwater, surface water and the terrestrial ecosystems. They are categorized as fennoscandian mineral-rich springs according to the European Nature Information System (EUNIS) classification (C2.111 European Environmental Agency) and have a high conservation value. They are also an island-like phenomena in the landscape and, together with the stable chemical and physical properties of the groundwater, make excellent study sites for testing questions regarding community assembly theory. To explore the biota of these systems, we applied environmental metabarcoding to assess ciliate diversity in this habitat. DNA was extracted and metabarcoding based on the 18S rRNA gene was conducted for (1) water samples and (2) glass beads as support for biomass development. Alpha diversity for ciliate communities in the spring sources increased with temperature, and limnocrene springs had fewer, more abundant taxa than rheocrene springs. Differences were observed between the water samples and the glass bead samples, mainly in terms of abundance. When considering only the water samples, no variation was found among spring source communities, indicating that stochastic processes such as dispersal and ecological drift might be important in shaping the community composition.
期刊介绍:
AME is international and interdisciplinary. It presents rigorously refereed and carefully selected Research Articles, Reviews and Notes, as well as Comments/Reply Comments (for details see AME 27:209), Opinion Pieces (previously called ''As I See It'') and AME Specials. For details consult the Guidelines for Authors. Papers may be concerned with:
Tolerances and responses of microorganisms to variations in abiotic and biotic components of their environment; microbial life under extreme environmental conditions (climate, temperature, pressure, osmolarity, redox, etc.).
Role of aquatic microorganisms in the production, transformation and decomposition of organic matter; flow patterns of energy and matter as these pass through microorganisms; population dynamics; trophic interrelationships; modelling, both theoretical and via computer simulation, of individual microorganisms and microbial populations; biodiversity.
Absorption and transformation of inorganic material; synthesis and transformation of organic material (autotrophic and heterotrophic); non-genetic and genetic adaptation; behaviour; molecular microbial ecology; symbioses.
