how resource amendments influence planktonic communities has the potential to
influence the formation of microbial biofilms during community assembly.
% Fakesubsubsection
In a crude sense, biofilm and planktonic microbial communities can be broken
into two key groups: phototrophic eukaryotes (hereafter algae) and
heterotrophic bacteria and archaea. This dichotomy, while somewhat artificial,
...
across ecosystems of varying trophic state \citep{Cotner_2002}. Heterotrophic
bacteria meet some to all of their organic carbon (C) requirements from algal
produced C while simultaneously competing with algae for limiting nutrients
such as phosphorous (P). The presence of external C inputs, such as terrigenous
C leaching from the watershed \citep{Jansson_2008, Karlsson_2012} or C exudates
derived from macrophytes \citep{Stets_2008, Stets_2008b}, can alleviate
bacterioplankton reliance on algal derived C and shift the relationship from
commensal and competitive to strictly competitive
\citep[see][Figure~\ref{fig:conceptual}]{Stets_2008}. Under this mechanism
increased C supply should increase the resource space available to the bacteria
and lead to increased competition for P, decreasing P available for algae
{\textendash} assuming that bacteria are superior competitors for P as has been
observed \citep[see][Figure~\ref{fig:conceptual}]{COTNER_1992}. These dynamics
should result in the increase in bacterial biomass relative to the algal
biomass along a gradient of increasing labile C inputs.

While these gross level dynamics have been discussed conceptually
\citep{Cotner_2002} and to some extent demonstrated empirically
\citep{Stets_2008}, the effect that these shifts in the bulk biomass pool have

the experiment.
This increase in DOC in the higher C:P treatments was associated with decreases
in planktonic Chl \textit{a} in each
treament treatment (Figure~\ref{fig:pool_size}a),
however there was no significant difference in biofilm Chl \textit{a} among
treatments (Figure~\ref{fig:pool_size}b). In combination with the decrease in
planktonic Chl \textit{a} on the 6th day of the experiment the highest C:P

communities to be more sharply skewed in both the algal and bacterial datasets
(Figure~\ref{fig:rank_abund_shape}).
To investigate differences in the community's
strucure structure and membership between
the bacterial biofilm and overlying planktonic communities we identified
the
the most
disproportinately disproportionately enriched OTUs in biofilm compared to the planktonic
communities and vice versa. When relative mean of OTU abundance were calculated
between
plantonic planktonic versus biofilm lifestyles the most enriched OTUs were
consistently in planktonic samples (with respect to biofilm)
(Figure~\ref{fig:l2fc}). This is consistent with the higher alpha diversity in
biofilm communities compared to planktonic communities and evidence that
sequence counts were spread across a greater
diversty diversity of taxa in the biofilm
libraries compared to the planktonic libraries (i.e. biofilm communities had
higher evenness than planktonic communities). Of the top five enriched bacterial OTUs
between the two lifestyles (biofilm or plankton), one is annotated as \textit{Bacteroidetes}, two
\textit{Gammaproteobacteria}, one \textit{Betaproteobacteria} and one
\textit{Alphaproteobacteria} and all five were enriched in the planktonic
liraries libraries relative to biofilm (Table~\ref{Tab:01}). Of the top 25 enriched OTUs
among lifestyles only five bacterial OTU centroid sequences shared high
sequence identity (\textgreater= 97\%) with cultured isolates (Table~\ref{Tab:01}).
...
the top 25 OTUs were enriched in the biofilm and 16 were enriched in the
planktonic samples. Eight of these 9 biofilm enriched OTUs were
\textit{Stramenopiles} of class \textit{Bacillarophyta}, the remaining OTU was
classified as a member of the \textit{Rhodophyta}. The 16
plantonic planktonic enriched
OTUs (above) were distributed into the \textit{Viridiplantae} (5 OTUs),
\textit{Cryptophyta} (4 OTUs), \textit{Haptophyceae} (4 OTUs), and
\textit{Stramenopiles} (3 OTUs). Similar to differences among bacterial

the bacterial and algal libraries (p-value 0.006 and 0.001, respectively). The
lifestyle category represents 18\% and 36\% of variance for pairwise sample
distances in bacterial and algal libraries, respectively. The Adonis result is
also consistent with lifestyle (biofilm versus
plantonic) planktonic) clustering along the
first principal component for the algal libraries but not for the bacterial
libraries (Figure~\ref{fig:pcoa}).
\subsubsection{Community membership high C}
Although community membership was predominately driven by lifestyle we also
innvestigated investigated how resource amendments affected community membership and
structure. To do this we calculated differential abundance values for OTUs
between a high C and low C sample class. Because the abiotic (e.g. DOC) and all
biomass indicators (e.g. biomass pool size) were only significantly different

alignment coordinates were culled from the dataset. Remaining reads were
trimmed to consistent alignment coordinates such that all reads began and ended
at the same position in the SSU rRNA gene and screened for chimeras with UChime
in
{\textquotedblleft}denovo{\textquotedblright} ''denovo'' mode \citep{21700674} via the Mothur UChime wrapper.
\subsubsection{Taxonomic annotations} Sequences were taxonomically classified
using the UClust \citep{20709691} based classifier in the QIIME package
\citep{20383131} with the Greengenes database and taxonomic nomenclature
(version
"gg\_13\_5" ''gg\_13\_5'' provided by QIIME developers, 97\% OTU representative
sequences and corresponding taxonomic annotations, \citep{22134646}) for 16S
reads or the Silva LSU database (Ref set, version 115, EMBL taxonomic
annotations, \citep{23193283}) for the 23S reads as reference. We used the
default parameters for the algorithm (i.e. minimum consensus of 51\% at any
rank, minimum sequence identity for hits at 90\% and the maximum accepted hits
value was set to 3).
\subsubsection{Clustering}
Reads were clustered into OTUs following the UParse pipeline. Specifically

statistically different from its proportion mean in another. This differential abundance
could mark an enrichment of the OTU in either sample class and the direction of
the enrichment is apparent in the sign (positive or negative) of the metric
used to summarize the proportion mean difference. Here we use
log2 log$_{2}$ of the
proportion mean ratio (means are derived from OTU proportions for all samples
in each given class) as our differential abundance metric. It is also important
to note that the DESeq2 R package we are using to calculate the differential
