Spatial variations in the predation of nano-protozoa on bacteria in Lake Taihu, China

We investigated the predation of nano-protozoa (size fraction < 16 μm) on bacteria in four regions of Lake Taihu, China using the dilution method. The results showed that the growth rate of bacteria in the Meiliang Bay, Gonghu Bay, Dapu River mouth, and Lake Center was 0.613 ± 0.024 d−1, 1.015 ±...
