Physiology and molecular phylogeny of coexisting Prochlorococcus ecotypes
Nature, 1998The cyanobacterium Prochlorococcus is the dominant oxygenic phototroph in the tropical and subtropical regions of the world's oceans. It can grow at a range of depths over which light intensities can vary by up to 4 orders of magnitude. This broad depth distribution has been hypothesized to stem from the coexistence of genetically different populations

Prochlorococcus: Advantages and Limits of Minimalism
Annual Review of Marine Science, 2010Prochlorococcus is the key phytoplanktonic organism of tropical gyres, large ocean regions that are depleted of the essential macronutrients needed for photosynthesis and cell growth. This cyanobacterium has adapted itself to oligotrophy by minimizing the resources necessary for life through a drastic reduction of cell and genome sizes.

Comparing Prochlorococcus temperature niches in the lab and across ocean basins
Limnology and Oceanography, 2021Niche theory suggests that the realized niche occupied by an organism in the field is a subset of the fundamental niche space of the organism, absent additional biotic and abiotic factors.

Two distinct types of 6S RNA in Prochlorococcus
Gene, 2007Different forms of the 6S non-coding RNA (ncRNA) exist in enterobacteria and in B. subtilis but there is only limited information about this RNA from other groups of bacteria. Prochlorococcus is an oceanic, ecologically important, cyanobacterium. It possesses the most streamlined genome within the cyanobacterial phylum, lacking many regulatory proteins

Photosynthetic Response to Environmental Stress in Prochlorococcus
2008Prochlorococcus is a cyanobacterium that is abundant in the world's subtropical/tropical open oceans and a major participant in global carbon and energy cycles. A key environmental factor limiting the distribution of Prochlorococcus is temperature. In light of predicted changes in global climate and increases in ocean temperatures, it is essential to ...
