Diversity in xanthophyll cycle pigments content and related nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ) among microalgae: implications for growth strategy and ecology
Xanthophyll cycle‐related nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ), which is present in most
photoautotrophs, allows dissipation of excess light energy. Xanthophyll cycle‐related NPQ …

Microscale imaging sheds light on species‐specific strategies for photo‐regulation and photo‐acclimation of microphytobenthic diatoms
Intertidal microphytobenthic (MPB) biofilms are key sites for coastal primary production,
predominantly by pennate diatoms exhibiting photo‐regulation via non‐photochemical …

Growth form defines physiological photoprotective capacity in intertidal benthic diatoms
In intertidal marine sediments, characterized by rapidly fluctuating and often extreme light
conditions, primary production is frequently dominated by diatoms. We performed a …

On biotic and abiotic drivers of the microphytobenthos seasonal cycle in a temperate intertidal mudflat: a modelling study
Microphytobenthos (MPB) from intertidal mudflats are key primary producers at the land–
ocean interface. MPB can be more productive than phytoplankton and sustain both benthic …
