Phytoplankton Morpho-Functional Trait Variability along Coastal Environmental Gradients

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
We utilized the trait-based approach in a novel way to examine how specific phytoplankton traits are related to physical features connected to global change, water quality features connected to catchment change, and nutrient availability connected to ...

Dinoflagellate responses to nutrients and mangrove leaf organic matter in the bioluminescent Mangrove Lagoon, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 1240-1250, August 2026.
Abstract Bioluminescent bays (biobays) are uncommon coastal ecosystems featuring dense populations of dinoflagellates, often found in mangrove‐ringed lagoons with long water retention times and high organic matter (OM) levels. Although mangroves are associated with high dinoflagellate abundance, it remains uncertain how inorganic nutrients compare with

Mixotrophy in algae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Alge su genetski i fiziološki raznolika skupina s vrlo različitim prehrambenim strategijama. Povijesna podjela na autotrofe i heterotrofe ne može se primijeniti na veliki broj vrsta te je mogućnost miksotrofije kao načina ishrane dugo bila zanemarivana ...

Trophic Diversity in Duckweed: Mixotrophy, More Than the Sum of its Extremes (Adv. Sci. 41/2026)

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 41, 22 July 2026.
Trophic Diversity in Duckweed Framed by the Taiji symbol, a hallmark of Chinese philosophy, duckweed balances heterotrophy (Yin) and photoautotrophy (Yang). Their complementary crosstalk between mitochondria and chloroplasts drives mixotrophy, yielding a synergistic “1 + 1 > 2” boost in carbon use and biomass growth.

Changing Pacific Salmon Nursery Lake Ecosystem Dynamics Over Centuries to Millennia: Insights From Sedimentary DNA Metabarcoding

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
Sedimentary DNA metabarcoding tracks long‐term eukaryotic community change in Pacific salmon nursery lakes, revealing potential land‐use and climate influences on algal communities and resilience indicators. ABSTRACT Pacific salmon are keystone species in North Pacific freshwater, riparian, and marine ecosystems, but many populations have declined or ...

An updated view on the long‐term survival and significance of marine protist resting stages

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2026.
Abstract Resting stages of protists act as biological time capsules when buried in marine sediments, preserving viable cells that enable the study of ecological and evolutionary processes across timescales. Recent studies have extended the known viability in diatoms to several millennia and in dinoflagellates to over a century, while also identifying ...
