Popis: | Picoeukaryotes constitute an important component of the living biomass of oceanic communities and play major roles in biogeochemical cycles. There are very few studies on picoeukaryotes found in the Chukchi Sea. This work shows the relationship between community distribution and composition of picoeukaryotes residing in water masses and physicochemical factors in the southern Chukchi Sea studied in both midsummer (July) and early autumn (September), 2012. Illumina 18S V4 rDNA metabarcoding were used as the main tool. In July, Mamiellophyceae, Dinophyceae, and Trebouxiophyceae were the main microbial classes, with Micromonas, Prasinoderma, Telonema, Amoebophrya, Bathycoccus, Picomonas, and Bolidomonas representing the main genera. In September, Trebouxiophyceae surpassed Dinophyceae and was the second main microbial class, with Micromonas, Prasinoderma, Bathycoccus, Bolidomonas, Telonema, Choricystis, and Diaphanoeca representing the main genera. Water mass was the primary factor determining the community composition and diversity of picoeukaryotes. Abundance of Bathycoccus was found to be highly correlated with Alaskan Coastal Water and that of Prasinoderma, Bolidomonas, and Diaphanoeca with Bering Seawater. Nitrate and phosphate content of water in midsummer and dissolved oxygen (DO) and temperature in early autumn were the main factors that shaped the abundance of the picoeukaryote community. |
