Incubation and grazing effects on spirotrich ciliate diversity inferred from molecular analyses of microcosm experiments.

We used an experimental approach of analyzing marine microcosms to evaluate the impact of both predation (top-down) and food resources (bottom-up) on spirotrich ciliate communities. To assess the diversity, we used two molecular methods-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and high-through...
