Conceptual models of mixotrophy in planktonic protists and some ecological and evolutionary implications
DK Stoecker - European Journal of Protistology, 1998 - Elsevier
Mixotrophy is a common phenomenon among planktonic algae and protozoa. Mixotrophic
protists that combine phagotrophy and phototrophy are often abundant in the euphotic zone …
