Mixotrophy in aquatic plants, an overlooked ability [PDF]

open access: yesTrends in Plant Science, 2022
Aquatic Embryophytes play a key role in the proper functioning of aquatic ecosystems, where carbon (inorganic and organic forms) is pivotal in biogeochemical processes. There is growing awareness that mixotrophy, the direct use of exogenous organic carbon by autotrophs, is a widespread phenomenon and that it has emerged recurrently in the evolution of ...

Mixotrophy in the Marine Plankton

Annual Review of Marine Science, 2017
Mixotrophs are important components of the bacterioplankton, phytoplankton, microzooplankton, and (sometimes) zooplankton in coastal and oceanic waters. Bacterivory among the phytoplankton may be important for alleviating inorganic nutrient stress and may increase primary production in oligotrophic waters.

Mixotrophy in Ciliates

Protist, 2010
Mixotrophy is the occurrence of phagotrophy and phototrophy in the same organism. In ciliates the intracellular phototroph can be unicellular green algae (zoochlorellae), dinoflagellates (zooxanthellae), cryptomonads or sequestered chloroplasts from ingested algae.

Acquired Phototrophy as an Evolutionary Path to Mixotrophy

The American Naturalist, 2023
AbstractAcquired photosynthesis transforms genotypically heterotrophic lineages into autotrophs. Transient acquisitions of eukaryotic chloroplasts may provide key evolutionary insight into the endosymbiosis process-the hypothesized mechanism by which eukaryotic cells obtained new functions via organelle retention. Here, we use an eco-evolutionary model
