Interpretation of 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) to 16S rRNA gene ratios (rRNArDNA) is based on a limited number of studies with rapidly growing copiotrophic bacteria. The most abundant bacteria in the ocean are oligotrophs, which probably grow more slowly than those bacteria whose rRNArDNA versus growth rate relationships are known. To examine whether rRNArDNA varies differently in oligotrophic marine bacteria than in copiotrophic bacteria, we used quantitative PCR and reverse transcriptase quantitative PCR to measure rRNArDNA in two m
