Abstract
  • Daphnia hyalina was used to assess the impact of zooplankton on the photosynthetic activity of picocyanobacteria. A phosphorus-limited laboratory system was designed, composed of 3µm filtered lake water with natural assemblages to which non-axenic Synechococcus sp. was added. Different treatments with and without Daphnia were arranged; aliquots from these were sampled during 3-day incubations to measure changes in picocyanobacterial net primary production (NPP), excreted organic carbon (EOC), dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and photosynthetic parameters (photosynthesis- irradiance response curves). Bacterial number, biovolume and production were measured in both the treatment and control to evaluate possible bacterial interferences. A significant increase of picocyanobacterial photosynthesis and efficiency (2- and 3-fold increase of Pmax and alfa respectively) was observed in bottles supplemented with Daphnia, whereas cell-specific bacterial production did not. At the same time, the EOC:NPP ratio was 2.3 times lower with the grazer. This result clearly shows the impact of P recycling mediated by a grazer on picocyanobacterial growth and production.
