In this review, I would like to summarize the current knowledge on the microbiology of soda lakes and pans of the Carpathian Basin. First, the characteristic physical and chemical features of these sites are described. Most of the microbiological information presented deals with prokaryotes and algae, but protists and viruses are also mentioned. Planktonic bacterial communities are dominated by members of the phyla Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes and Proteobacteria; small-sized trebouxiophycean green algae and Synechococcus/Cyanobium picocyanobacteria are the most important components of phytoplankton. Based on the current knowledge, it seems that mainly temperature, salinity, turbidity and grazing pressure regulate community composition and the abundance of individual microbial groups, but the external nutrient load from birds also has a significant impact on the ecological processes.

在这篇评论中，我想总结一下目前关于喀尔巴阡盆地苏打湖和盘的微生物学的知识。首先，描述了这些站点的特征物理和化学特征。所提供的大多数微生物学信息都涉及原核生物和藻类，但也提到了原生生物和病毒。浮游细菌群落以放线菌门、拟杆菌门和变形菌门的成员为主；小型海藻绿藻和聚球藻/蓝藻微微蓝藻是浮游植物最重要的组成部分。根据目前的知识，似乎主要是温度、盐度、浊度和放牧压力调节群落组成和个体微生物群的丰度，但鸟类的外部养分负荷也对生态过程有显着影响。
