摘　　要：Background:Massively parallel sequencing of environmental DNA allows microbiological studies to be performed in greater detail than was possible with first-generation sequencing.For example,it facilitates the use of approaches hitherto largely applied to flora and fauna,such as rank abundance distribution(RAD)analyses.Methods:Here,we set out to advance the knowledge on Ca.Pelagibacterales(SAR11)communities from southern South America using environmental sequences from the open ocean in the Argentine sea,the uncharted Engaño Bay,as well as a river and an oligohaline shallow lake from the Patagonian Steppe ecoregion.The structures of the SAR11 assemblages present in these ecosystems were dissected by direct and rarefaction-based estimates of species richness,and evaluations of the corresponding abundance distributions(ADs),which was addressed by RAD analyses.Results:Microbial community composition analyses revealed that the studied SAR11 assemblages coexist with 27 bacterial phyla.SAR11 richness was in general very high,but ADs turned out to be highly uneven.The results were compatible with prior knowledge,and similar to that derived from point estimates of diversity.However,our comprehensive dissection allowed for more detailed quantitative comparisons to be made between the environments surveyed,and revealed differences regarding both richness and the underlying ADs.Conclusions:Despite SAR11 assemblages being extremely rich,their ADs are very uneven.Richness and ADs can vary,not only between fresh and salt water,but also between oceanic and coastal marine environments.The obtained results provide insights on general topics such as adaptation and the contrast between marine and freshwater radiations.
