Phytoplankton communities within the photic zones of the oceans and lakes are
characterised by highly complex assemblages of unicellular microalgae and associated …

With its contribution to nutrition, development, and disease resistance, gut microbiome has
been recognized as a crucial component of the animal's health and well-being. Microbiome …

The thin film of life that inhabits all plastics in the oceans, so-called “plastisphere,” has
multiple effects on the fate and impacts of plastic in the marine environment. Here, we aimed …

With each cell division, phytoplankton create new space for primary colonization by marine
bacteria. Although this surface microenvironment is available to all planktonic bacterial …

Microbial photoautotroph-heterotroph interactions underlie marine food webs and shape
ecosystem diversity and structure in upper ocean environments. Here, bacterial community …

Phytoplankton and bacteria form the base of marine ecosystems and their interactions drive
global biogeochemical cycles. The effects of bacteria and bacteria-produced compounds on …

Microbial colonization is an essential process in the early life of animal hosts—a crucial
phase that could help influence and determine their health status at the later stages. The …

The interactions between bacteria and microalgae play pivotal roles in resource allocation,
biomass accumulation, nutrient recycling, and species succession in aquatic systems …

It is generally recognised that interactions between microalgae and bacteria play an
important role in the functioning of marine ecosystems. In this context, increasing attention is …

Diatom–bacteria interactions evolved during more than 200 million years of coexistence in
the same environment. In this time frame, they established complex and heterogeneous …
