It was investigated if MP could become a vector for atypical bacterial assemblages, including potential pathogens. The MP-biofilms differed from those on seston and free-living bacterial assemblages, but less from those on control surfaces. Vibrio abundances were higher on MP than in the water, but highest on wood. MP are thus a distinct habitat for biofilm bacteria; however, their vector potential depends on the spatial, temporal, and environmental dynamics of the system.", school="Universit{\"a}t Rostock", note="vorgelegt von Katharina Kesy", note="Enth{\"a}lt Zeitschriftenartikel", note="Die Druckausgabe enth{\"a}lt einen Anhang auf einer DVD", note="Zusammenfassung in deutscher Sprache", note="GutachterInnen: Matthias Labrenz (Leibniz-Institut f{\"u}r Ostseeforschung Warnem{\"u}nde) ; Melissa Duhaime (University of Michigan, USA)", note="Dissertation Universit{\"a}t Rostock 2020", doi="10.18453/rosdok_id00002636", url="http://purl.uni-rostock.de/rosdok/id00002636", url="https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-rosdok_id00002636-9", url="https://d-nb.info/1293659223/34", url="https://doi.org/10.18453/rosdok_id00002636", language="English" }
