The purpose of this study was to elucidate of correlation between the seasonal changes of bacterial communities using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and plate counts(heterotrophs) in Lake Moon-cheon. The ratio of eubacteria to total bacteria was 42.6∼74.5% and the percentage of α··β··γ-group belong to the proteobacteria ranged from 4.4∼15.8%, 2.6∼14.8%, 2.2∼19.8% respectively. Cytophaga-Flavobacterium group to eubacteria varied from 7.6∼22.1% annually There was no significant correlation between each group of proteobacteria and plate counts except Cytophaga-Flavobacterium group which constituted the largest fraction of bacterial groups surveyed during most of the year.
