    Individual populations of freshwater bacteria in mixed experimental communities exhibited specific responses to the presence of different bacterivorous protists. The dynamics of several 16S rRNA-defined bacterial populations were followed in the experimental communities. The introduction of a mixotrophic nanoflagellate always resulted in an immediate bloom of a single phylotype population (Ac1). These bacteria were phylogenetically affiliated with an uncultured lineage of gram-positive bacteria that have been found in freshwater habitats only. In contrast, no increase of this population was observed in vessels exposed to a bacterivorous ciliate. However, when the mixotroph was added to the established ciliate culture, the proportion of population Ac1 within the microbial community rapidly increased. Populations of a beta proteobacterial phylotype decreased relative to the total bacterial communities following the addition of either predator, albeit to different extents.
