Ciliate microzooplankton from the Northeastern Gulf of Mexico

open access: yesICES Journal of Marine Science, 2021
AbstractMicrozooplankton mediate a critical juncture of autotrophic and heterotrophic microbial production in the water column. Taxonomic and ecological work on this group has been substantial, yet few reports exist for the offshore waters of the Gulf of Mexico (GOM).

Summertime tintinnids in surface water of the Weddell and Cosmonaut seas: community structure and relationships with different water masses

open access: yesPolar Research, 2023
Tintinnids (Ciliophora) are important microzooplankton grazers. In the Southern Ocean, they are found in the Antarctic Zone, Polar Front and Subantarctic Zone.

Transcriptomic Response to Feeding and Starvation in a Herbivorous Dinoflagellate

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2019

Multitrophic Interactions in the Sea: Assessing the Effect of Infochemical-Mediated Foraging in a 1-d Spatial Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The release of chemicals following herbivore grazing on primary producers may provide feeding cues to carnivorous predators, thereby promoting multitrophic interactions.

Microzooplankton feeding behaviour: grazing on the microbial and the classical food web of African soda lakes [PDF]

open access: yesHydrobiologia, 2012
Nous avons étudié le comportement alimentaire du microzooplancton dominant des lacs salins de la vallée du Rift est-africain. Un ensemble d'expériences de pâturage a révélé des taux d'ingestion élevés des deux rotifères euryhalins Brachionus dimidiatus et Brachionus plicatilis et des ciliés omnivores de grande taille Frontonia sp.

Insights into the effects of environmental factors on phytoplankton and microzooplankton at a basin scale: diversity, assembly mechanisms, and co-occurrence networks

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Mastering the characteristics of planktonic microbial communities under the influence of basin-scale environmental factors can provide scientific basis to develop more targeted protection and restoration measures. Here, an environmental DNA metabarcoding

Influence of the Calcium Carbonate Shell of Coccolithophores on Ingestion and Growth of a Dinoflagellate Predator

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Coccolithophores are an important group of ∼200 marine phytoplankton species which cover themselves with a calcium carbonate shell called “coccosphere.” Coccolithophores are ecologically and biogeochemically important but the reason why they calcify ...
