1. Bacterioplankton production was measured in the water columns of two ultraoligotrophic,freshwater Antarctic lakes (Crooked Lake and Lake Druzhby) during an annualcycle. In both lakes bacterial production, measured by the incorporation of [3H] thymidine,continued in winter and showed a cycle over...
