The survival of allochthonous bacteria in aquatic systems is affected by biotic and abiotic environmental factors. Grazing by protozoa is one of the main biological processes that control allochthonous bacterial density. Its extent depends on the concentration of bacteria and the digestion capacity of the grazer. The physiological state of bacteria is affected by multiple physicochemical stresses, to which they (...)
