The paper investigates how iron limitation affects carbon flow to bacteria by altering exometabolite consumption in a diatom-bacterial community.

This study shows that specific bacteria in the diatom phycosphere enhance or suppress diatom growth under iron limitation by affecting dust-bound iron accessibility.

This study shows oxidative stress shifts diatom-bacteria interactions from mutualistic to opportunistic by altering nutrient transfer and bacterial resource acquisition strategies.

The paper quantifies glycolate metabolism by marine bacteria and shows cross-feeding enhances carbon transfer efficiency.

This study identifies a bacterium that contributes to diatom population collapse in outdoor algal ponds and explores its interactions with other microbes.

The paper investigates microbial interactions in algal systems, finding that cooperation, not just competition, significantly influences carbon flow from algae to bacteria.

The paper identifies VOC-specialist bacteria in diatom cultures and shows their impact on carbon cycling and diatom productivity.

This study shows that alkaloid exposure in poison frogs increases skin microbiome diversity and enables specific microbial adaptations to toxic environments.

The paper quantifies viral carbon and nitrogen assimilation by coastal bacteria and protists using isotope-labeled viruses and flow cytometry, showing biotic processes significantly enhance virus removal.

This study quantifies carbon transfer in a microbial alga-bacterium interaction, finding limited carbon flow and bacterial vitamin B12 synthesis despite algal lysis.
