• Grazer‐induced chain length plasticity reduces grazing risk in a marine diatom (2012, background): “Because longer diatom chains sometimes sink at a slower rate (Smayda and Boleyn 1966), it has been suggested that the ability to form chains is an adaptation to improve flotation, which enables diatoms to remain for longer periods of time in the euphotic zone and, as a result, attain a higher growth”
