The paper highlights issues with taxonomic annotation in microbial eukaryote meta-omic datasets and proposes clustering as a more accurate approach than alignment-based methods.

The paper quantifies Prochlorococcus carbon acquisition, showing mixotrophy supports its ecological success in oceanic environments.

This study shows diel light cycles significantly impact phytoplankton competition and nutrient dynamics in the global ocean, increasing opportunists biomass by up to 50% in low latitudes.

This study measures macromolecular composition changes in Prochlorococcus MIT9312 during nitrogen starvation, showing decreased protein, RNA, and pigments per cell, and increased dissolved organic carbon exudation.
