A year in the life of the Eastern Mediterranean:Monthly dynamics of phytoplankton and bacterioplankton in an ultra-oligotrophic sea

T. Reich, T. Ben-Ezra, N. Belkin, A. Tsemel, D. Aharonovich, D. Roth-Rosenberg, S. Givati, O. Bialik, B. Herut, I. Berman-Frank, M. Frada, M. D. Krom, Y. Lahahn, E. Rahav, D. Sher

This paper describes the annual dynamics of phytoplankton and bacterioplankton in the ultra-oligotrophic Eastern Mediterranean Sea, showing lower primary productivity compared to other oligotrophic regions but similar bacterial production.

Seasonal dynamics are the major driver of microbial diversity and composition in intensive freshwater aquaculture

S. Marmen, E. Fadeev, A. Al Ashhab, A. Benet-Perelberg, A. Naor, H. J. Patil, E. Cytryn, D. Viner-Mozzini, A. Sukenik, M. Lalzar, D. Sher

This study shows that seasonal cycles, not aquaculture practices, primarily drive microbial community structure in freshwater fishponds over three years.

Microbial communities in an ultra-oligotrophic sea are more affected by season than by distancefrom shore

M. Haber, D. Roth-Rosenberg, M. Lalzar, I. Burgsdorf, K. Saurav, R. Lionheart, Y. Lehahn, D. Aharonovich, D. Sher, M. D. Krom, L. Steindler

The paper examines how microbial communities in the ultra-oligotrophic Eastern Mediterranean Sea vary with season and distance from shore, finding that season has a greater impact than distance.

The role of land use types and water chemical properties in structuring the microbiomes of a connected lakes system

S. Marmen, L. Blank, A. Al-Ashhab, A. Malik, L. Ganzert, M. Lalzar, H.-P. Grossart, D. Sher

The paper examines how land use and water chemistry influence microbiomes in a connected lakes system, finding that land use within drainage basins affects water quality and microbial structure, while direct land use around lakes has minimal impact.
