Contrasting Community Composition and Co-Occurrence Relationships of the Active Pico-Sized Haptophytes in the Surface and Subsurface Chlorophyll Maximum Layers of the Arctic Ocean in Summer
Haptophytes (Hacrobia: Haptophyta), which can perform phototrophic, phagotrophic, or mixotrophic nutritional modes, are critical for element cycling in a variety of aquatic ecosystems. However, their diversity, particularly in the changing Arctic Ocean (AO), remains largely unknown. In the present s...

description | Haptophytes (Hacrobia: Haptophyta), which can perform phototrophic, phagotrophic, or mixotrophic nutritional modes, are critical for element cycling in a variety of aquatic ecosystems. However, their diversity, particularly in the changing Arctic Ocean (AO), remains largely unknown. In the present study, the biodiversity, community composition, and co-occurrence networks of pico-sized haptophytes in the surface water and subsurface chlorophyll maximum (SCM) layer of the AO were explored. Our results found higher alpha diversity estimates in the surface water compared with in the SCM based on high-throughput sequencing of haptophyte specific 18S rRNA. The community composition of the surface water was significantly different from that of the SCM, and water temperature was identified as the primary factor shaping the community compositions. Prymnesiales (mostly Chrysochromulina), uncultured Prymnesiophyceae, and Phaeocystis dominated the surface water communities, whereas Phaeocystis dominated the SCM communities, followed by Chrysochromulina, uncultured Prymnesiophyceae, and the remaining taxa. The communities of the surface water and SCM layer developed relatively independent modules in the metacommunity network. Nodes in the surface water were more closely connected to one another than those in the SCM. Network stability analysis revealed that surface water networks were more stable than SCM networks. These findings suggest that SCM communities are more susceptible to environmental fluctuations than those in surface water and that future global changes (e.g., global warming) may profoundly influence the development, persistence, and service of SCM in the AO. |
