Abstract

To scrutinize the bacterial community composition of Lake Soyang in winter, bacterial numbers belonging to Eubacteria, Proteobacteria and Cytophaga-Flavobacterium group were estimated by using 16S and 23S rRNA targeted oligonucleotide probes. Total bacterial numbers ranged from $0.7{\times}10^6$ to $1.1{\times}10^6cells{\cdot}ml^{-1}$, and vertical profile of total bacteria showed a peak at 5 m depth. The ratio of eubacteria to total bacteria were 34~90% and at 5 m and 10 m depths those were low exhibiting, 39 and 34%, respectively. The percentage of proteobacteria ${\alpha}$-group ranged 10.8~28.7%, ${\beta}$-group 4.5~53.5%, ${\gamma}$-group 4.9~35.5% and Cytophaga-Flavobacterium group 6.1~21.1%. The dominant groups were ${\beta}$-group at 0, 2 and 5 m, ${\gamma}$-group at 10 m, ${\alpha}$-group at 30 m and Cytophaga-Flavobacterium group at 50 m depth. In winter season, Lake Soyang can be divided into three layer, 0~2 m, 5~10 m and 30~50 m, by the bacteria community composition. By this method, new informations about aquatic ecosystem were developed.

겨울철 소양호에서 세균 군집 구조를 파악하고자 총세균수와 EUB338, ALF1b, BET4a, GAM42a와 CF probe 등 fluorescent rRNA targeted oligonucleotide probe 와 반응하는 세균 개체수를 수심별로 측정하였다. 총세균수는 $0.7{\times}10^6{\sim}1.1{\times}10^6cell{\cdot}ml^{-1}$이였으며, 5 m와 10 m 수층에서 높게 나타났다. 총세균수에 대한 Eubacteria의 비율은 34~90%이였으며, 5 m와 10 m에서 낮게 나타났다. Proteobacteria ${\alpha}$-group은 Eubacteria의 10.8-28.7%, ${\beta}$-group은 4.5-53.5%, ${\gamma}$-group은 4.9-35.5%, 그리고 Cytophaga-Flavobacterium group은 6.1-21.1%이였다. 0-5 m 수심에서는 ${\beta}$-group이 28.6-53.5%로 우점하고 있었으며, 10 m에서는 ${\gamma}$-group이 35.5%로 우점하였다. 30, 50 m 수심에서는 ${\alpha}$-group과 Cytophaga-Flavobacterium group이 우점하였다. 세균 군집 구조로 보면 0-2 m, 5-10 m 그리고 30-50 m의 3개층은 각각 독특한 특징을 나타내었다. 이 방법으로 호수 생태계에 대한 새로운 정보를 얻을 수 있었다.
