The effects of spatial variance, temperature and pH on bacterial community composition in the sea anemone, Anemonia viridis (original) (raw)

The Plymouth Student Scientist, 2014

Abstract

Marine organisms are well known to have associations with microorganisms and little is known about the specific nature of the microorganism host interactions. This study investigates the bacterial community composition in the sea anemone Anemonia viridis using Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis; bacterial community composition was assessed for spatial variance. The results show that there was no significant variation within a location or between the locations. These results are concordant with previous studies and suggest that bacterial populations are stable in Anemonia viridis .
