Investig. mar. [online]. 1995, vol.23, pp.67-74. ISSN 0717-7178.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0717-71781995002300004.

This work analize the relationships between the standing crop and biomass of phytoplankton and bacteria in the zone of the Arauco Gulf, Chile. Samples were taken during the month of march (summer) and august (winter) of 1991. The number and biomass of total bacteria, of aerobic heterotrophic bacteria, and of the phytoplankton were studied. The results show that the number of phytoplankton has a positive correlation with the number and biomass of the heterotrophic bacteria, but not with the total bacteria. There is also a high correlation with temperature, justifying the temporal variations noted in the results

Palabras clave : relation; phytoplankton; bacterioplankton; superficial; Arauco Gulf.
