Ectoine from Bacterial and Algal Origin Is a Compatible Solute in Microalgae [PDF]
Marine Drugs, 2020 Osmoregulation in phytoplankton is attributed to several highly polar low-molecular-weight metabolites. A widely accepted model considers dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) as the most important and abundant osmotically active metabolite.
