Low flow and co-occurring stress is a more and more frequent phenomenon these years in small agricultural streams as a consequence of climate change. In the present study we explored short and longer term structural responses of the stream benthic algae community and biofilm metabolism to multiple stress in small streams applying a semi-experimental approach. We hypothesized that i) a reduction in flow in combination with secondary stress (nutrients and sediments) have immediate effects on the benthic algae community in terms of biomass (chlorophyll a, biovolume), taxonomic and trait (lifeform and size distribution) compositions as well as on metabolism (GPP and CR), and ii) that changes in the benthic algae community persist due to altered environmental settings but that functional redundancy among benthic algae species provides a high level of resilience in metabolism (GPP and CR). Overall, we found that stress imposed by nutrients was less pronounced than stress imposed by fine sediments under low flow, and that nutrient enrichment to some extent mitigated effects of fine sediments. Fine sediment deposition mediated a decline in the fraction of erect algae and/or algae with mucilage stalks but this did not happen under co-occurring stress from both sediments and nutrients. Additionally, fine sediment deposition mediated a decline in GPP of the biofilm, but again this did not happen under co-occurring stress from nutrients. We conclude that 1) the benthic algae community and biofilm metabolism displayed similar resilience to stress imposed by low flow and co-occurring stress from nutrients and sediments on a short and longer time scale and 2) as structure-function adaptations may occur at several trophic levels in the biofilm, more research is needed to explore mechanisms underlying mitigating effects of nutrients in response to sediment deposition under low flow.In coastal environments, bioturbators greatly influence the physical and biogeochemical properties of sediments with consequences for central ecological processes such as erosion dynamics. In addition to their direct impact on sediment stability, bioturbators can have an impact on sediment erosion processes by modulating the growth of microphytobenthic organisms that stabilise the surface layer of sediments. The direct and indirect influences of bioturbators on sediment dynamics depend on the magnitude of their activity and inherently on their physiological state. Bioturbators are infected by various parasites, which have a substantial impact on their physiology and behaviour. However, the knock-on effects of parasites on key ecosystem functions like sediment dynamics remain poorly studied. We conducted flume experiments to investigate the indirect influence of the trematode Bucephalus minimus parasitising the common cockle Cerastoderma edule on the dynamics of sandy sediments enriched or not with microphytobghness may have been reduced. The absence of a parasitism effect on the dynamics of MPB-unenriched sediments remains nonetheless unclear.Dissolved organic matter (DOM) accounts for >95% of total marine organic matter, and >95% of marine DOM is refractory to biodegradation. The recalcitrancy of DOM determines its residence time and thus is of great concern regarding to carbon sequestration in the ocean. However, the recalcitrancy of DOM not only varies among different compounds but also within different conformations of a same molecule such as L-amino acids (L-AAs) and D-amino acids (D-AAs). While the former is labile, the latter is refractory and used as a proxy for estimation of bacterial refractory DOM in the ocean. However, some D-AAs are also reported to be bioavailable. To clarify the controversy, we examined the bioavailability of two types of D-AAs canonical D-AAs, which mainly present as bacterial cell wall components, and non-canonical D-AAs (NCDAAs), which are secreted by various bacteria as signaling molecules in bacterial physiology. Bioassay experiments were conducted with nine marine bacterial strains and a natural microbial community. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/ABT-888.html D-AAs were poorly utilized by the strains as sole carbon or nitrogen sources compared with L-AAs, in addition, NCDAAs were barely used compared with canonical D-AAs. In comparison, the microbial community consumed all three canonical D-AAs (D-alanine, D-aspartic acid and D-glutamic acid) as efficiently as their corresponding L-AAs when supplied separately; however, L-AAs were preferentially used over D-AAs when both forms were provided simultaneously. Remarkably, two NCDAAs, D-methionine and D-leucine, were poorly utilized regardless of the presence of the L-enantiomers. It was found for the first time that NCDAAs are relatively more refractory than canonical D-AAs to microbial utilization. This novel recognition of difference in recalcitrancy between NCDAAs and canonical D-AAs lays the foundation for a better understanding of carbon cycling and more accurate estimation of carbon storage in the ocean.Disturbances in soil can cause short-term soil changes, consequently changes in microbial community what may result in long-lasting ecological effects. Here, we evaluate how multiple pulse disturbances effect the dynamics and resilience of fungal community, and the co-occurrence of fungal and bacterial communities in a 389 days field experiment. We used soil under sugarcane cultivation as soil ecosystem model, and organic residue (vinasse - by-product of sugarcane ethanol production) combined or not with inorganic (organic residue applied 30 days before or together with mineral N fertilizer) amendments as disturbances. Application of organic residue alone as a single disturbance or 30 days prior to a second disturbance with mineral N resulted in similar changes in the fungal community. The simultaneous application of organic and mineral N as a single pulse disturbance had the greatest impact on the fungal community. Organic amendment increased the abundance of saprotrophs, fungal species capable of denitrification, and fungi described to have copiotrophic and oligotrophic lifestyles. Furthermore, the changes in the fungal community were not correlated with the changes in the bacterial community. The fungal community was neither resistant nor resilient to organic and inorganic disturbances over the one-year sampling period. Our findings provide insights on the immediate and delayed responses of the fungal community over one year to disturbance by organic and inorganic amendments.
