Bacterivory of metazooplankton, ciliates and flagellates in a newly flooded reservoir

Bacterial consumption by metazoan zooplankton and phagotrophic protists was measured in situ during the period of thermal stratification in the epilimnion (1 m) and metalimnion (7 m) of a newly flooded reservoir (Sep reservoir, France). The mean bacterial consumption was 2.53 x 10
