	Abstract

The compositions of archaeal and bacterial populations at different depths [60-m (mixolimnion/chemocline interface), 70-m (chemocline/sub-chemocline interface), 90-m, and at 92-m (the water-sediment interface)] in the anoxic zone of the water column in Lake Pavin, a freshwater permanently-stratified mountain lake in France, were determined. Phylogenetic trees were constructed from sequences to assess archaeal and bacterial diversity at the 4 sites.
