Scientists have uncovered over 200 new giant viruses lurking in ocean waters that not only help shape marine ecosystems but also manipulate photosynthesis in algae. These massive viruses once ...

The microbiome comprises all of the genetic material within a microbiota (the entire collection of microorganisms in a specific niche, such as the human gut). This can also be referred to as the ...

Iron-coupled fungal denitrification provides promising strategies for oligotrophic water remediation, although its molecular drivers remain unclear. This study applied scrap iron filings (SIFs) to ...

An earlier study on *Asteracys sp.* [3] explored its photosynthetic responses under different light intensities, especially during mixotrophic growth. Mixotrophic growth means the organism can use ...

The ‘black boxes’ of ecological stoichiometry, planktonic microbes, have long been recognized to have considerable effects on global biogeochemical cycles. Significant progress has been made in ...

As a mixotrophic group, however, dinoflagellates are very insensitive to high-nutrient conditions. Therefore, the higher nutrient concentrations (especially DIN) along the coastal Yellow Sea favored ...
