Planktonic bacteria play important role in the organic matter decomposition, nutrient cycling and as food for organisms of higher trophic levels such as flagellates and ciliates, thus representing fundamental components in planktonic food webs. This study analyzed the microbial community structure and evaluated the importance of heterotrophic nanoflagellates (HNF) and ciliates bacterivory in a subtropical environment predominantly mesotrophic (Lobo-Broa reservoir, Brazil) by the quantification of their ingestion rates during one year period. The in situ experiments using fluorescently labelled bacteria (FLB) were conducted on the surface of two sampling points that have different trophic degrees. In parallel, physical, chemical and biologic...
