  abstract = {{A}n annual study of the bacterioplankton community structure was carried out at {S}tn {L}4 (50 degrees 15'{N}, 04 degrees 13'{W}) in the western {E}nglish {C}hannel between {A}ugust 2003 and {J}uly 2004. {B}acterioplankton abundance and community structure were assessed using flow cytometry and fluorescence in situ hybridization ({FISH}) with r{RNA}-targeted oligonucleotide probes, respectively. {T}he {E}ubacteria domain dominated over the {A}rchaea domain (< 15 %) at the highest phylogenetic level. {T}he {S}phingo-bacteria-{F}lavobacteria group of the {B}acteroidetes phylum ({SFB}) numerically dominated in spring and early summer. {T}he alpha-{P}roteobacteria dominated from late summer to winter. {T}he {SAR}11 clade represented similar to 13% of the microbial community throughout the year and accounted for up to 69% of a-{P}roteobacteria in late spring. {A}nnually, gamma-{P}roteobacteria were 2 or 3 times less abundant than the other groups and showed no obvious seasonal trend. {T}he {SAR}86 cluster accounted for up to half of gamma-{P}roteobacteria when it peaked in summer. {C}onsequently, we found that community structure at higher taxonomic level did not change dramatically with season but lower level phylogenetic groups showed pronounced seasonal peaks.},
