Flavobacteria in the Southern Ocean
The abundance, spatial distribution and diversity of class Flavobacteria, a bacterial group with a major role in marine secondary production, was investigated in the Southern Ocean euphotic zone of the ice pack off Eastern Antarctica and along a transect at 140-144°E between latitudes 44.7°S to 63.5...
