The paper shows that sublinear density dependence can arise from sequential shifts in resource limitation, without needing other factors like predation, and predicts superlinear dependence at high and low densities.

This study quantifies nutrient colimitation in microbial populations, showing it occurs in lab conditions and nature, with different effects on growth rate and yield.

This study shows that UDP-glucose-4-epimerase is required for aggregation and exopolymer production in marine bacteria Alteromonas spp., highlighting their role in particulate organic matter aggregation.

The paper identifies a consistent specialized metabolome in Trichodesmium thiebautii blooms and isolates a new macrocyclic compound, suggesting potential ecological roles for these metabolites.

METATRYP v2 identifies shared peptides across organisms in metaproteomics to improve taxonomic attribution, showing low peptide sharing among marine microbes and coronaviruses.

The paper develops the Ocean Protein Portal (OPP) to address big-data challenges in marine microbial proteomics by enabling data sharing, discovery, and educational use through interactive visualizations and metadata links.
