Abstract:Abstract—The composition and structure of the anoxygenic phototrophic bacterial (APB) community in the water column of Lake Bol’shie Khruslomeny during winter were investigated. The community developed at the depth of 4.25 m, and its activity during the ice-covered period was very low (6.2 µmol C L–1 day–1). The water in the zone of highest development of phototrophic bacteria was of an unusual lemon-yellow color, probably due to the production and accumulation of polysulfides. The near-bottom water was also o… Show more
