Syndiniales is a diverse parasitic group, increasingly gaining attention owing to its high taxonomic diversity in marine ecosystems and inhibitory effects on the dinoflagellate blooms. However, their seasonal dynamics, host interactions, and mechanisms of community assembly are largely unknown, particularly in eutrophic waters. Here, using 18S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing, we intended to elucidate the interactions between Syndiniales and microeukaryotes, as well as community assembly processes in a eutrophic bay. The results showed that Syndiniales group II was dominating throughout the year, with substantially higher abundance in the winter and spring, whereas Syndiniales group I was more abundant in the summer and autumn. Temperature and Dinoflagellata were the most important abiotic and biotic factors driving variations of the Syndiniales community, respectively. The assembly processes of microeukaryotes and Syndiniales were completely different, with the former being controlled by a balance between homogeneous selection and drift and the latter being solely governed by drift. Network analysis revealed that Syndiniales group II had the largest number of interactions with microeukaryotes, and they primarily associated with Dinoflagellata in the winter, while interactions with Chlorophyta and Bacillariophyta increased dramatically in summer and autumn. These findings provide significant insights in understanding the interactions and assembly processes of Syndiniales throughout the year, which is critical in revealing the roles of single-celled parasites in driving protist dynamics in eutrophic waters.
