Stable isotope probing (SIP) was used to track prokaryotic and eukaryotic carbon uptake along a meridional transect (Long. 52°W) in the North Atlantic to assess if 13 C-resource partitioning between bacteria and archaea and 13 C-labeled eukaryotic predators could be detected.

Stable isotope probing (SIP) was used to track prokaryotic and eukaryotic carbon uptake along a meridional transect (Long. 52°W) in the North Atlantic to assess if 13 C-resource partitioning between bacteria and archaea and 13 C-labeled eukaryotic predators could be detected. One-liter SIP microcosms were amended with 13 C-acetate or 13 C-urea and incubated for 48 h. Our data indicated archaea often outcompeted bacteria for 13 C-urea while both archaea and bacteria could incorporate 13 C-acetate. This 13 C label could also be tracked into eukaryotic microbes. The largest number of 13 C-labeled eukaryotic OTUs, and the greatest percentage of eukaryotic 13 C signal, were observed in conjunction with both archaeal and bacterial 13 C incorporation, suggesting that most eukaryotic predators do not distinguish between archaeal and bacterial prey. However, other 13 C-eukaryotic OTUs were exclusively associated with either 13 C-archaeal or 13 C-bacterial OTUs. These archaeal-specific and bacterial-specific 13 C-eukaryotic OTUs were related to known bactivorous predators including Ancyromonas, Amastigomonas, Cafeteria, and Caecitellus.
