Alteromonas macleodii breaches the diatom frustule triggering protoplast emergence and programmed necrosis-like death in Thalassiosira rotula

Abstract Diatom-bacteria interactions drive biogeochemical fluxes at the base of the marine food-web. Although bacteria are increasingly recognised as important drivers of algal mortality, the diversity of algicidal strategies remains understudied. Here we show that Alteromonas m...

A global mitochondrial genomic atlas illuminates freshwater microeukaryote diversity

Abstract Environmental genomics has transformed our view of the microbial world, yet progress remains largely prokaryote-centric. Among microbial eukaryotes, inconsistent marker choice and limited species-level resolution blunt diversity estimates and hinder cross-study synthesis...
