Abstract

V originále

We examined the responses of microorganism assemblages to a complete mineral richness gradient spanning from extremely mineral-rich tufa-forming calcareous fens to mineral-poor acidic Sphagnum-fens. We also compared the distribution of two dominant taxa, testate amoebae and monogonont rotifers, among the sites differing in water chemistry and among three microhabitats sampled at each site differing in substrate and moisture conditions. Microorganism assemblages primarily changed in response to the mineral richness gradient; moisture was the second important factor structuring microorganism assemblages among microhabitats.
