Journal ArticleDOI
Are viruses driving microbial diversification and diversity
TL;DR: Data is presented supporting the hypothesis that viral genes and viral activity generate genetic variability of prokaryotes and are a driving force for ecological functioning and evolutionary change.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plankton and nutrient dynamics in marine waters
TL;DR: A continuum of trophic pathways is proposed that the continuum goes from the herbivorous web (or chain) to a “multivorous food web”, to the microbial web, and finally the microbial loop.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nature of phosphorus limitation in the ultraoligotrophic eastern Mediterranean.

TL;DR: Phosphate addition to surface waters of the ultraoligotrophic, phosphorus-starved eastern Mediterranean in a Lagrangian experiment caused unexpected ecosystem responses, and copepods may be coupled to lower trophic levels through interactions not usually considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
P limitation of heterotrophic bacteria and phytoplankton in the northwest Mediterranean
TL;DR: It is suggested that the growth rates of not only phytoplankton, but also of heterotrophic bacteria, are P limited in this environment in summer, which has important implications for the dynamics of accumulation of dissolved organic carbon in the photic zone and thus for the carbon cycle of oceans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accumulation of degradable DOC in surface waters: Is it caused by a malfunctioning microbialloop?
TL;DR: A model describing the interactions between heterotrophic bacteria, phytoplankton, and bacterivorous protozoa is used to explore how the balance between DOC production and consumption shifts along a gradient from oligotrophy to eutrophy.
