Chromatin in a marine picoeukaryote is a disordered assemblage of nucleosomes [PDF]
Chromosoma, 2013 Chromatin organization is central to many conserved biological processes, but it is generally unknown how the underlying nucleosomes are arranged in situ. Here, we have used electron cryotomography to study chromatin in the picoplankton Ostreococcus tauri, the smallest known free-living eukaryote.

Picophytoplankton Niche Partitioning in the Warmest Oligotrophic Sea
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Pico-sized Synechococcus, Prochlorococcus, and eukaryotes are the dominant photosynthetic organisms in the vast warm and oligotrophic regions of the ocean.

Genetic diversity of photosynthetic picoeukaryotes in Lake Taihu
Journal of Lake Sciences, 2012 Genetic diversity of photosynthetic picoeukaryotes has been investigated at two stations located in Meiliang Bay and East Taihu in Lake Taihu,respectively.Genetic libraries of chloroplast 16S rRNA gene have been constructed by using primer set PLA491F/OXY1313R,biased towards chloroplast of marine algae.The results show that most of photosynthetic ...

Disentangling the mechanisms shaping the surface ocean microbiota
Microbiome, 2020 Background The ocean microbiota modulates global biogeochemical cycles and changes in its configuration may have large-scale consequences. Yet, the underlying ecological mechanisms structuring it are unclear.

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 Ocean artificial upwelling has been suggested to boost primary production and increase harvestable resources such as fish. Yet, for this ecosystem-based approach to work, an effective energy transfer up the food web is required.

ISME Communications, 2023 Abstract Dissolved primary production released into seawater by marine phytoplankton is a major source of carbon fueling heterotrophic bacterial production in the ocean. The composition of the organic compounds released by healthy phytoplankton is poorly known and difficult to assess with existing chemical methods.

Is the Dilution Technique Underestimating the Picophytoplankton Growth Measurements?
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 In oceanic communities, picophytoplankton often dominates phytoplankton biomass and productivity. Diel variations in picophytoplankton abundance and growth have been well documented.

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 The mechanism that determines the dynamics of subsurface chlorophyll maximum depth (zSCM) has long been debated. Although a coupling between zSCM and the top of nitracline (znit) has been widely observed in the open ocean, a co‐location of zSCM and an ...
