A study of heterotrophic bacteria and vibrios adhering to the copepod Tigriopus fulvus, which lives in Ligurian coast rock pools (Tyrrhenian Sea), was carried out from November 1990 to October 1991. Heterotrophic bacteria, which were always found both free in the water and bound to the T. fulvus organisms, showed a correlation with water temperature and salinity. Vibrio alginolyticus was found free in the water and bound to T. fulvus surfaces during the warmest months. Temperature is the main factor influencing the presence of V. alginolyticus in the rock pool. Attachment of this microorganism to the copepod provides a mechanism for its extended geographic distribution.
从 1990 年 11 月至 1991 年 10 月,对生活在利古里亚沿海岩石水池(第勒尼安海)的桡足类动物三疣梭子蟹(Tigriopus fulvus)上附着的异养细菌和弧菌进行了研究。异养细菌总是在水中自由存在,并与 T. fulvus 生物体结合,其数量与水温和盐度相关。在最温暖的几个月里,Alg 溶藻弧菌既可以在水中自由存在,也可以附着在三疣梭子蟹的表面。温度是影响弧菌在岩石水池中存在的主要因素。这种微生物附着在桡足类动物上为其在更广泛的地理区域分布提供了机制。
