The phytoseston of the Warta, a polluted eutrophic river in western Poland, was studied from spring to autumn 2003. The focus of the study was autotrophic picoplankton (APP). APP abundance fluctuated from 1.3?106 to 1.05?108cells L1 and was characterized by a maximum in late July. APP biomass was low, ranging from 0.5 to 19.7 mug C L1. Both cyanobacteria and eukaryotic organisms were found within the picoplankton. The picocyanobacterial community was often dominated by colonial forms, mostly Aphanocapsa spp. and Cyanogranis ferruginea (Wawrik) Hindak. Eukaryotic picoplankton included chlorophytes of the genera Chlorella, Choricystis, and Pseudodictyosphaerium jurisii (Hind?k) Hindak. Among the phytoplankton larger than 2 mum, the most abundant species were diatoms and chlorophytes, except in late August, when filamentous cyanobacteria dominated. The contribution of APP to the total phytoplankton biomass was usually below 1%, and the mean (0.6%) was close to the lower limit of values found in lakes.

The phytoseston in the Plociczna River originated mainly from lakes situated in its water course. It was more abundant and diverse in spring than in summer, which was related to differences in water discharge. The phytoseston abundance between the stations at the inlets and outlets of the successive lakes increased 9.7, 1.9 and decreased 1.4 times, respectively. A gradual reduction in the abundance of organisms was also noted at the outlets of successive lakes, which indicated a decrease in the trophic status of the water. The abundance of phytoseston between the outlets and inlets to the subsequent lakes (river stretch) decreased considerably. Disturbances in the river continuum system caused by the lakes situated in the river course resulted in the acceleration of potamoplankton succession.
