Abstract Laminarin, a β (1, 3)‐glucan, serves as a storage polysaccharide in marine
microalgae such as diatoms. Its abundance, water solubility and simple structure make it an …

Resource use efficiency has garnered much attention globally owing to its linkage with
phytoplankton growth and extinction. However, little is known about how microbially …

Phosphorus (P) control is critical for mitigating eutrophication, however, microbially driven P-
cycling processes and their functional potential during algal succession remain elusive …

Heterotrophic prokaryotes play a vital role in organic matter cycling in the ocean and have
been observed to undergo substrate‐controlled successions during phytoplankton blooms …

Heterotrophic microorganisms are responsible for transforming and respiring a substantial
fraction of the organic matter produced by phytoplankton in the surface ocean. Much of this …

Algae catalyze half of the global solar powered reduction of carbon dioxide to organic
molecules. While this organic synthesis shapes genomes of heterotrophic microbiota …

Molecular observational tools are useful for characterizing the composition and genetic
endowment of microbial communities but cannot measure fluxes, which are critical for the …

Molecular observational tools are great for characterizing the composition and genetic
endowment of microbial communities, but cannot measure fluxes, which are critical for the …

Blooming microalgae (phytoplankton) release diverse organic molecules that fuel the
marine pools of dissolved and particulate organic matter. A highly specialized community of …

SusC/D-like proteins are essential components of glycan utilization machineries in
Bacteroidota, but remain unknown in other bacterial phyla. The glycan-binding SusD-like …
