In addition, association between vibrios and sediment-inhabiting meiofauna, which is a major component of benthic ecosystems, was investigated. Culturable and total <em class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Vibrio</em> spp. estimates by most-probable-number technique coupled with standard polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and real-time PCR methods, respectively, were at least one order of magnitude higher in sediment than in seawater. In addition, potential human pathogenic species <em class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Vibrio cholerae</em>, <em class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Vibrio vulnificus</em> and <em class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Vibrio parahaemolyticus</em> occurred in the sediment with <em class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">V. parahaemolyticus</em> being the most frequently found. In the pelagic environment, 60% of total variance in culturable <em class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Vibrio</em> data was explained by sea surface temperature (40%), salinity (13%) and organic matter concentration (7%). In the benthic environment, sea surface temperature was the only factor that significantly affected culturable <em class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Vibrio</em> occurrence although it explained only 25% of total variance, suggesting that additional unexplored factors may play a role as well. No correlation was found between culturable <em class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Vibrio</em> spp. concentrations and the abundance of harpacticoid copepods in the sediment whilst a negative correlation was found between <em class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Vibrio</em> spp. and nematode abundance which accounted for almost 90% of the total meiofaunal density. Taxonomic analysis revealed that selective bacterial feeders accounted for nearly 50% of the total nematode community and included genera such as <em class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Terschellingia</em>, <em class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Molgolaimus</em> and <em class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Halalaimus</em>, suggesting that top-down control by nematode grazing may be an important factor affecting <em class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Vibrio</em> occurrence in these sediments. It is concluded that the benthic marine environment may function as a reservoir of <em class=\"EmphasisTypeItalic \">Vibrio</em> spp. and potential pathogenic vibrios whose ecological features appeared substantially different from the ones recognised in the pelagic environment.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"Benthic ecology of <i>Vibrio</i> spp. and pathogenic <i>Vibrio</i> species in a coastal Mediterranean environment (La Spezia Gulf, Italy)","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-06-10 01:32:24.540175","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":"Vibrio; Meiofauna; Nematode Community; Harpacticoid Copepod; Pelagic Environment ","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2009,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2019-07-17","DateCreate":"2019-07-17","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000271461000011","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.1007%2Fs00248-009-9542-8"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":312824,"PubliDate":2009,"Pagination":"808-818","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"58","Issue":"4","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":43400,"SerRR":"Microbial Ecology.
