Application of cryopreservation to genetic analyses of a photosynthetic picoeukaryote community [PDF]
Cryopreservation is useful for long-term maintenance of living strains in microbial culture collections. We applied this technique to environmental specimens from two monitoring sites at Sendai Bay, Japan and compared the microbial diversity of photosynthetic picoeukaryotes in samples before and after cryopreservation.

Potential Impacts of Climate Interventions on Marine Ecosystems
Abstract Rising global temperatures pose significant risks to marine ecosystems, biodiversity, and fisheries. Recent comprehensive assessments suggest that large‐scale mitigation efforts to limit warming are falling short, and all feasible future climate projections, including those that represent optimistic emissions reductions, exceed the Paris ...

Nano- and pico-eukaryotes play important roles in the diversity and functions of marine ecosystems. Warm, saline, and nutrient-depleted water that originates in the Kuroshio Current seasonally intrudes into the northern South China Sea (NSCS) from autumn

ABSTRACT Dinoflagellates and ciliates are important grazers of primary production in the Northeast Pacific but knowledge of their taxonomic composition and depth‐distribution is limited. These organisms also display a variety of heterotrophic feeding modes including heterotrophy, mixotrophy, and parasitism.

Abstract This study presents the first multi‐year assessment quantifying the contribution of primary production to vertical carbon flux in the ultra‐oligotrophic southeastern Levantine basin of the Mediterranean Sea. Depth‐integrated (0–180 m) daily primary productivity (PP) was 25% higher in the mixed winter period than in the stratified period (123 ...

Microorganisms play fundamental roles in marine ecosystems, sustaining food webs and driving biogeochemical cycles. Unicellular eukaryotes smaller than 2-3 um (picoceukaryotes) are recognized as important members of microbial assemblages in terms of both biomass and activity.

Temperature-driven biogeography of marine giant viruses infecting picoeukaryotes <i>Micromonas</i>. [PDF]
Abstract Climate shapes the biogeography of microbial and viral communities in the ocean. Among abiotic factors, temperature is one of the main drivers of microbial community distribution. However, we lack knowledge on how temperature shapes the life history traits, population dynamics, and the biogeography of marine viruses.

Abstract The flux of carbon through the labile dissolved organic matter (DOM) pool supports marine microbial communities and represents the fate of approximately half of marine net primary production (NPP). However, the behavior of individual chemical structures that make up labile DOM remain largely unknown.

Picoeukaryotic diversity and distribution in the subtropical-tropical South China Sea [PDF]
Little is known regarding the diversity and distribution of picoeukaryotes in the northwestern Pacific Ocean, although these organisms are vital components of their environment. Here, we used a culture-independent approach to assess the 18S rDNA diversity of picoeukaryotes at six sampling sites along a transcontinental section of the South China Sea ...
