Number and phylogenetic affiliation of bacteria assimilating dimethylsulfoniopropionate and leucine in the ice-covered coastal Arctic Ocean
7 pages, 5 figures, 1 table.-- Issue title: "Sea ice and life in a river-influenced arctic shelf ecosystem" The ability of bacteria to assimilate sulfur from dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) was examined in the western Arctic Ocean by combining microautoradiography and fluorescence in sit...
