Seasonal variability and vertical distribution of autotrophic and heterotrophic picoplankton in the Central Red Sea [PDF]
The Red Sea is characterized by higher temperatures and salinities than other oligotrophic tropical regions. Here, we investigated the vertical and seasonal variations in the abundance and biomass of autotrophic and heterotrophic picoplankton. Using flow

Influence of environmental changes on picophytoplankton and bacteria in Daya Bay, South China Sea
Environmental changes driven by intense human disturbance and natural processes govern the abundance and distribution characteristics of two picophytoplankton groups (Synechococcus and picoeukaryotes).

Picophytoplankton biomass distribution in the global ocean [PDF]
The smallest marine phytoplankton, collectively termed picophytoplankton, have been routinely enumerated by flow cytometry since the late 1980s during cruises throughout most of the world ocean. We compiled a database of 40 946 data points, with separate

Distribution and seasonal variation of picoplankton in Sanggou Bay, China
Picoplankton abundance and biomass in Sanggou Bay, China, were investigated in 4 successive seasons (April, August and October 2011, January 2012). Different distribution patterns of picoplankton abundance and biomass were observed according to season ...

Plastid 16S rRNA gene diversity among eukaryotic picophytoplankton sorted by flow cytometry from the South Pacific Ocean. [PDF]
The genetic diversity of photosynthetic picoeukaryotes was investigated in the South East Pacific Ocean. Genetic libraries of the plastid 16S rRNA gene were constructed on picoeukaryote populations sorted by flow cytometry, using two different primer ...

The spatial distribution of the photosynthetic picoeukaryotes community structure in Lake Hongze
ABSTRACT The spatial dynamics of picophytoplankton were investigated by flow cytometry and high-throughput sequencing in Lake Hongze, a large river-connecting lake. Picophytoplankton were mainly composed of phycocyanin-rich picocyanobacteria (PCY) and photosynthetic picoeukaryotes (PPEs).

Picoeukaryotes play an important role in the biogenic element cycle and energy flow in oligotrophic ecosystems. However, their biodiversity and activity are poorly studied in open ocean systems, such as the northwestern Pacific Ocean, which is ...

Ultraphytoplankton basin-scale distribution in the eastern Mediterranean Sea in winter: link to hydrodynamism and nutrients [PDF]
The basin-scale distribution of ultraphytoplankton (<10 μm) was determined in the upper 200 m of the eastern Mediterranean Sea during the winter season.

Our study explores coexistence regimes of a virus and a zooplankton with a single phytoplankton for different model structures (left panel). The inclusion of an infected class and a resistant class is sufficient to generate coexistence regimes (middle panel). Using algebraic solutions, we optimise our model emphasising the importance of including viral
