Effects of evolution from strain to community level: an experimental study on bacterioplankton

Boek - Dissertatie

My research focuses on how evolution and eco-evolutionary dynamics impact bacterioplankton strains and communities. Using isolates from freshwater ponds I explore ecological drivers and evolutionary potential of bacterioplankton using a well-balanced model system. I focus on bacterial adaptation imposed by environmental changes due to anthropogenic activities, more specifically urban heat island effect. Furthermore, I investigate whether bacterioplankton diversity levels impact total bacterioplankton abundances. Additionally, in my research I focus on whether pre-adaptation of strains influence total bacterioplankton counts and community composition.
