Phylogenetic signals of salinity and season in bacterial community composition across the salinity gradient of the Baltic Sea
Understanding the key processes that control bacterial community composition has enabled predictions of bacterial distribution and function within ecosystems. In this study, we used the Baltic Sea as a model system to quantify the phylogenetic signal of salinity and season with respect to bacteriopl...
