Parasites, pathogens, and other symbionts of copepods
There is a large diversity of eukaryotic symbionts of copepods, dominated by epizootic
protists such as ciliates, and metazoan parasites. Eukaryotic endoparasites, copepod …

Multiyear analysis uncovers coordinated seasonality in stocks and composition of the planktonic food web in the Baltic Sea proper
The planktonic realm from bacteria to zooplankton provides the baseline for pelagic aquatic
food webs. However, multiple trophic levels are seldomly included in time series studies …

Ecological drivers switch from bottom–up to top–down during model microbial community successions
Bottom–up selection has an important role in microbial community assembly but is unable to
account for all observed variance. Other processes like top–down selection (eg, predation) …
