High and specific diversity of protists in the deep-sea basins dominated by diplonemids, kinetoplastids, ciliates and foraminiferans
Heterotrophic protists (unicellular eukaryotes) form a major link from bacteria and algae to
higher trophic levels in the sunlit ocean. Their role on the deep seafloor, however, is only …
