Marine Autotroph-Herbivore Synergies: Unravelling the Roles of Macroalgae in Marine Ecosystem Dynamics [PDF]
Biology, 2022 Species invasion is a leading threat to marine ecosystems worldwide, being deemed as one of the ultimate jeopardies for biodiversity along with climate change.

The double-edged sword of inducible defences: costs and benefits of maladaptive switching from the individual to the community level [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 Phenotypic plasticity can increase individual fitness when environmental conditions change over time. Inducible defences are a striking example, allowing species to react to fluctuating predation pressure by only expressing their costly defended ...

Unusual regulation of the CO2 concentrating mechanism of marine chemolithoautotroph Thiomicrospira pelophila [PDF]
Applied and Environmental MicrobiologyAutotrophic organisms fix dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC: CO2, HCO3-, CO3-2) into biomass, introducing organic carbon into the global carbon cycle. Many lineages of autotrophs developed CO2 concentrating mechanisms (CCMs) to grapple with the catalytic ...

Redefining the photic zone: beyond the autotroph-centric view of light in the ocean [PDF]
Communications Earth & EnvironmentTraditional measures of the photic zone have remained focused on autotrophs, limiting understanding of how changing marine lightscapes impact heterotrophs that use light as a resource or an environmental cue.

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 Microbial autotroph-heterotroph interactions influence biogeochemical cycles on a global scale, but the diversity and complexity of natural systems and their intractability to in situ manipulation make it challenging to elucidate the principles governing

Atypical Carboxysome Loci: JEEPs or Junk?
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Carboxysomes, responsible for a substantial fraction of CO2 fixation on Earth, are proteinaceous microcompartments found in many autotrophic members of domain Bacteria, primarily from the phyla Proteobacteria and Cyanobacteria.

Multiscale analysis of autotroph-heterotroph interactions in a high-temperature microbial community. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2018 Interactions among microbial community members can lead to emergent properties, such as enhanced productivity, stability, and robustness. Iron-oxide mats in acidic (pH 2-4), high-temperature (> 65 °C) springs of Yellowstone National Park contain ...

Bioengineering, 2023 Cupriavidus necator is a facultative chemolithotrophic organism that grows under both heterotrophic and autotrophic conditions. It is becoming increasingly important due to its ability to convert CO2 into industrially valuable chemicals. To translate the

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Production of organic molecules is largely depending on fossil fuels. A sustainable alternative would be the synthesis of these compounds from CO2 and a cheap energy source, such as H2, CH4, NH3, CO, sulfur compounds or iron(II).
