Trophic Diversity in Duckweed: Mixotrophy, More Than the Sum of its Extremes
Advanced ScienceThe duckweed family Lemnaceae, aquatic plants within the early‐diverging monocot order Alismatales, are model organisms in plant biology. Owing to their exceptionally rapid growth rates, high protein content, notable capacity for starch accumulation, and

Mixotrophy in orchids: facts, questions, and perspectives. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary While orchids germinate thanks to carbon from their symbiotic fungi, variable carbon exchanges exist between adult orchids and their mycorrhizal fungi. Although some truly autotrophic orchids reward their fungi with carbon at adulthood, some species remain achlorophyllous and fully dependent on fungal ...

Regulation of mixotrophy in <i>Synechocystis</i> by a rhomboid protease. [PDF]
Microbiology (Reading)The intramembrane ‘rhomboid’ protease family is almost ubiquitous across evolution, with its well-conserved transmembrane domains typified in crystal structures of bacterial representatives, such as the Escherichia coli GlpG.

Nature Microbiology, 2022 Prochlorococcus is the most abundant photosynthetic organism in the ocean, but single-cell measurements and model simulations reveal that this organism might obtain only 20% of the carbon required for growth from photosynthesis in the deep water column.

About Pigmented Nanoflagellates and the Importance of Mixotrophy in a Coastal Upwelling System
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 Mixotrophy, understood as food ingestion and photosynthesis occurring in the same organism, is a nutrition mode relatively common in marine protists.

Harnessing Symbiotic Mixotrophic Microalgal–Bacterial Biofilms for N and P Elimination
Phycology, 2023 Symbiotic microalgal–bacterial biofilms can be very attractive for potato wastewater treatment. Microalgae remove nitrogen and phosphorus and simultaneously produce the oxygen that is required for the aerobic, heterotrophic degradation of organic ...

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2017 Mixotrophy, i.e., the ability to combine phototrophy and phagotrophy in one organism, is now recognized to be widespread among photic-zone protists and to potentially modify the structure and functioning of planktonic ecosystems.

Acid Tolerant and Acidophilic Microalgae: An Underexplored World of Biotechnological Opportunities
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Despite their large number and diversity, microalgae from only four genera are currently cultivated at large-scale. Three of those share common characteristics: they are cultivated mainly autotrophically and are extremophiles or tolerate “extreme ...
