Identification of Associations between Bacterioplankton and Photosynthetic Picoeukaryotes in Coastal Waters [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Photosynthetic picoeukaryotes are significant contributors to marine primary productivity. Associations between marine bacterioplankton and picoeukaryotes frequently occur and can have large biogeochemical impacts.

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

MicrobiologyOpen
Monitoring marine phytoplankton is essential to understanding marine ecosystems functioning, especially in productive regions like the English Channel. This study applied high‐throughput sequencing (HTS) and automated pulse shape‐recording flow cytometry

Rival phytoplankton contribute to the cross protection of Prochlorococcus from oxidative stress [PDF]

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
The marine cyanobacterium Prochlorococcus numerically dominates the phytoplankton communities in all lower latitude, open ocean environments. Having lost the catalase gene, Prochlorococcus is highly susceptible to exogenous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2 ...

Picophytoplankton prevail year‐round in the Elbe estuary [PDF]

Plant-Environment Interactions
Picophytoplankton are important primary producers, but not always adequately recognized, for example, due to methodological limitations. In this study, we combined flow cytometry and metabarcoding to investigate seasonal and spatial patterns of ...

Biogeography of Virioplankton Abundance and Subcluster Patterns in the Northwest Pacific: A Large-Scale Perspective. [PDF]

Microbiologyopen
Enhanced‐resolution flow cytometry combined with phenotypic diversity analysis reveals four consistent viral subclusters and a fifth restricted to the Yellow Sea across the Northwest Pacific. These results identify a cryptic diversity hotspot in the Luzon Strait and demonstrate how environmental and biological gradients shape large‐scale patterns in ...

Plankton Community Respiration and Particulate Organic Carbon in the Kuroshio East of Taiwan [PDF]

Plants, 2022
Biological organic carbon production and consumption play a fundamental role in the understanding of organic carbon cycling in oceans. However, studies on them in the Kuroshio, the western boundary current in the North Pacific Ocean, are scarce.

Distributions and relationships of virio- and picoplankton in the epi-, meso- and bathypelagic zones of the Amundsen Sea, West Antarctica during the austral summer [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Virioplankton and picoplankton are the most abundant marine biological entities on earth and mediate biogeochemical cycles in the Southern Ocean. However, understanding of their distribution and relationships with environmental factors is lacking.

Phosphorus Acquisition Strategies Among Phytoplankton and Free-Living Bacterial Communities in the Baltic Proper. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol Rep
Phosphorus is a key element for cellular functions and poses significant challenges for planktonic microbial communities under limited availability. Metagenomics highlighted that heterotrophic bacteria predominantly relied on phosphate scavenging while eukaryotic phytoplankton primarily utilized membrane remodelling to cope with limited phosphorus ...

Biogeographic gradients of picoplankton diversity indicate increasing dominance of prokaryotes in warmer Arctic fjords [PDF]

Communications Biology
Climate change is opening the Arctic Ocean to increasing human impact and ecosystem changes. Arctic fjords, the region’s most productive ecosystems, are sustained by a diverse microbial community at the base of the food web.

From Flames to the Ocean: Biomass Burning Aerosols Are Associated With Changes in Prokaryotic Communities in the Mediterranean Sea [PDF]

Environ Microbiol
The addition of wildfire fine ash particles (particle size < 20 μm) in Mediterranean summer seawater can increase prokaryotic growth and alter community composition over time, likely through the release of both inorganic and organic substrates by ash particles and by inducing changes in the composition of phytoplankton populations.
