| Method |
P.877 right column 2nd paragraph:"To determine the fraction of marine bacteria that are motile at
a given time and how this community is influenced by changes
in nutrients, experiments were conducted on natural communities
of coastal marine bacteria." |
| Comments |
P.878 left column 3rd paragraph:"Motile cells in all treatments made up less than or equal to 10% of the community of visible bacteria during the first 7 h of the experiment, and 7 of 15 samples had no motile cells (Fig. 1). During this time, the motile-cell fraction in 1% TSB [Tryptic soy broth] was indistinguishable from that in the control seawater (Fig. 1b). Beyond 7 h, the motile fraction increased to a maximum of 84% (Fig. 1)." |
