“…However, differences in nutritional content did not lead to increased grazer growth, perhaps because ANNUAL LITERATURE REVIEW grazers fed less nutritious biofilm compensated by consuming greater quantities of biofilm. Wang and Kam (2019) found that tadpoles of Bufo bankorensis Barbour (endemic to subtropical streams of Taiwan) preferred consumption of dead tadpoles over benthic algae, but selectively fed on stalked diatoms (e.g., Cymbella and Gomphonema) in enclosure experiments, and preferred algae over detritus.…”

Highlights of new, interesting, and emerging research findings on substratum-associated microbiota covered from a survey of 2019 literature from primarily freshwaters provide insight into research trends of interest to the Water Environment Federation and others interested in benthic, aquatic environments. Coverage of topics on bottom-associated or attached algae and cyanobacteria, though not comprehensive, includes new methods, taxa new-to-science, nutrient dynamics, auto-and heterotrophic interactions, grazers, bioassessment, herbicides and other pollutants, metal contaminants, and nuisance, and bloom-forming and harmful algae. Coverage of bacteria, also not comprehensive, focuses on the ecology of benthic biofilms and microbial communities, along with the ecology of microbes like Caulobacter crescentus, Rhodobacter, and other freshwater microbial species. Bacterial topics covered also include metagenomics and metatranscriptomics, toxins and pollutants, bacterial pathogens and bacteriophages, and bacterial physiology. Readers may use this literature review to learn about or renew their interest in the recent advances and discoveries regarding substratum-associated microbiota. © 2020 Water Environment Federation • Practitioner points • This review of literature from 2019 on substratum-associated microbiota presents highlights of findings on algae, cyanobacteria, and bacteria from primarily freshwaters. • Coverage of algae and cyanobacteria includes findings on new methods, taxa new to science, nutrient dynamics, auto-and heterotrophic interactions, grazers, bioassessment, herbicides and other pollutants, metal contaminants, and nuisance, bloomforming and harmful algae. • Coverage of bacteria includes findings on ecology of benthic biofilms and microbial communities, the ecology of microbes, metagenomics and metatranscriptomics, toxins and pollutants, bacterial pathogens and bacteriophages, and bacterial physiology. • Highlights of new, noteworthy and emerging topics build on those from 2018 and will be of relevance to the Water Environment Federation and others interested in benthic, aquatic environments
