Frontiers | Bacterial Communities Show Algal Host (Fucus spp.)/Zone Differentiation Across the Stress Gradient of the Intertidal Zone

Bacterial biodiversity often varies among different macroalgal hosts in a single location (Lachnit et al., 2009; Weigel and Pfister, 2019), within the same macroalgal host in different biogeographic regions (Roth-Schulze et al., 2018; Morelan et al., 2019), by tissue (Staufenberger et al., 2008; Qui

- Bacterial biodiversity often varies among different macroalgal hosts in a single location (Lachnit et al., 2009; Weigel and Pfister, 2019), within the same macroalgal host in different biogeographic regions (Roth-Schulze et al., 2018; Morelan et al., 2019), by tissue (Staufenberger et al., 2008; Quigley et al., 2018; Weigel and Pfister, 2019; Paix ...
- Bacteria can affect macroalgae in diverse ways – both positively and negatively. Some symbiotic bacteria are vital to their host because they produce morphogens that induce and maintain normal algal morphology
- whereas biotic interactions determine the lower limi
- . Often, abiotic stresses determine the upper distributional limit for macrobiota
- t is equally important to investigate how intertidal bacterial communities are distributed, what influences their distribution, and how these bacterial communities influence other organisms, including the macroalgae that often dominate intertidal communities.
