Abstract
This study aimed to understand the changes in microbial community after algicide dosing to control the fish-killing dinoflagellate Cochlodinium polykrikoides in 10L microcosm. Based on our microcosm experiments, the algicidal activity for C. polykrikoides of yellow clay at the concentrations of 4g and 10g per 10 L was < 20%. At $0.8{\mu}M$ concentration of thiazolidinedione(TD49), the population of C. polykrikoides was controlled to be > 85%. In microbial community, a significant increase in heterotrophic bacterial (HB) abundance was observed at day 1 in the TD49 and yellow clay treatments including control. The HB remained high for 2 days and then gradually decreased. In contrast, the abundance of heterotrophic nanoflagellates (HNFs) increased significantly on days 3 and 5 in the TD49 treatments, indicating that the decline in HB was probably a result of predation by the high density of HNFs. In addition, fluctuations in the aloricate ciliate Uronema sp., which feed on bacteria, was clearly correlated with fluctuations in HB abundance, with a lag period of 1-3 days. Therefore, the short-term responses of the HNF and Uronema sp. may have been a result of the rapidly increasing of HB abundance, which is related to degradation of the dense C. polykrikoides bloom, particularly in the TD49 treatment. In addition, large aloricate ciliate Euplotes sp. was significantly increased after reproduction of HNFs and Uronema sp. Consequently, the algicide TD49 had positive effect on the microbial communities, which indicates that the microbial loop was temporarily enhanced in the microcosm by energy flow from HB through HNFs to ciliate.
