Ecosystem services provided by marine and freshwater phytoplankton
L Naselli-Flores, J Padisák - Hydrobiologia, 2023 - Springer
Phytoplankton, the ecological group of microalgae adapted to live in apparent suspension in
water masses, is much more than an ecosystem's engineer. In this opinion paper, we use …

Growing unculturable bacteria
EJ Stewart - Journal of bacteriology, 2012 - Am Soc Microbiol
The bacteria that can be grown in the laboratory are only a small fraction of the total diversity
that exists in nature. At all levels of bacterial phylogeny, uncultured clades that do not grow …
