Integrating phytoplankton phenology, traits, and model‐data fusion to advance bloom prediction

Limnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 10, Issue 6, Page 815-834, December 2025.
Abstract While there is a diversity of approaches for modeling phytoplankton blooms, their accuracy in predicting the onset and manifestation of a bloom is still lagging behind what is needed to support effective management. We outline a framework that integrates trait theory and ecosystem modeling to improve bloom prediction.

Phylogenomics, plastome degradation and mycoheterotrophy evolution of Neottieae (Orchidaceae), with emphasis on the systematic position and Loess Plateau-Changbai Mountains disjunction of Diplandrorchis

BMC Plant Biology, 2022
Background Mycoheterotrophy is a unique survival strategy adapted to dense forests and has attracted biologists’ attention for centuries. However, its evolutionary origin and related plastome degradation are poorly understood.

Exploring the Regional Diversity of Eukaryotic Phytoplankton in the English Channel by Combining High‐Throughput Approaches

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 14, Issue 6, December 2025.
By combining flow cytometry and high‐throughput sequencing, we reveal seasonal and spatial variations in the size, composition, and diversity of phytoplankton in the English Channel, highlighting the dynamics of pico‐, nano‐, and microphytoplankton and environmental factors, with the Seine Bay as a hotspot of taxonomic and functional diversity ...

Production of Cyanotoxins by Microcystis aeruginosa Mediates Interactions with the Mixotrophic Flagellate Cryptomonas

Toxins, 2019
Eutrophication of inland waters is expected to increase the frequency and severity of harmful algal blooms (HABs). Toxin-production associated with HABs has negative effects on human health and aquatic ecosystem functioning.

Coadaptation shapes ecological interactions in mixotroph‐resource systems

Oikos, Volume 2025, Issue 12, December 2025.
Mixotrophs combining autotrophy and heterotrophy are ubiquitous in aquatic environments and significantly influence ecosystem functioning. Mixotrophs may adapt their nutritional mode in response to selection, becoming more heterotrophic or more autotrophic over time.

Small Phytoplankton Community Composition Cycles Annually With a Coastal Bloom

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 11, November 2025.
The composition of the small phytoplankton community on the Northeast US Shelf changes gradually over the annual cycle. With a combination of analytical tools, we characterise these repeated transitions over a 9‐year period and relate them to changes in cell concentration.

Recent Changes in Peatland Testate Amoeba Functional Traits and Hydrology Within a Replicated Site Network in Northwestern Québec, Canada

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
Northern peatlands, which are highly heterogeneous ecosystems, are a globally important carbon (C) store. Understanding the drivers and predicting the future trajectory of the peatland C store requires upscaling from cores and sites to regions and ...

DNA Metabarcoding as a Tool to Study Plankton Responses to Warming and Salinity Change in Mesocosms

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 9, September 2025.
To assess the impact of future climate change on Baltic Sea plankton communities, we conducted a mesocosm experiment manipulating temperature and salinity, using both microscopy‐based and DNA metabarcoding for plankton identification. Our results show that warming primarily influenced lower trophic levels, increasing community evenness and favouring ...
