Role of extracellular carbonic anhydrase in the polar diatom Fragilariopsis cylindrus
Summary Diatoms are major primary producers in productive polar oceans, where cold temperatures and high CO2 solubility raise questions as to whether they rely on the CO2‐concentrating mechanism (CCM) to saturate photosynthesis. Knowledge of CCM function will help better predict the sensitivity of diatom primary production to warming and acidifying ...
