Proliferation of purple sulphur bacteria at the sediment surface affects intertidal mat diversity and functionality.

Proliferation of purple sulphur bacteria at the sediment surface affects intertidal mat diversity and functionality.

There is a relative absence of studies dealing with mats of purple sulphur bacteria in the intertidal zone. These bacteria display an array of metabolic pathways that allow them to disperse and develop under a wide variety of conditions, making these mats important in terms of ecosystem processes an...
