• Plankton functional type modelling : running before we can walk? (2005, background): “Synechococcus and Prochlorococcus, for example, both major contributors to the picoplankton, show strong niche segregation with respect to light and other factors (Agusti, 2004).”
• Dead or alive? Viability assessment of micro- and mesoplankton (2012, methodology): “The CDA method has been employed in a number of studies on phytoplankton, such as pico-phytoplankton communities from the Atlantic Ocean (Agustı́, 2004; Alonso-Laita and Agustı́, 2006; Llabrés and Agustı́, 2006) and the Mediterranean Sea (Agustı́ and Sanchez, 2002; Alonso-Laita et al., 2005; Laster”
• The role of viruses in marine phytoplankton mortality (2007, unknown): “Agusti (2004) also observed a good viability of the autotrophic prokaryotes in the same geographical area.”
• Viruses as mortality agents of picophytoplankton in the deep chlorophyll maximum layer during IRONAGES III (2007, background): “In offshore oligotrophic waters, cyanobacteria are found in relatively high numbers, but infectious Synechococcus and Prochlorococcus phages occur in low abundance (Sullivan et al. 2003). Sullivan et al. (2003) even argued that these ‘‘low [cyanophages] titers in areas of high host abundance seem to”
• Picophytoplankton cell death induced by UV radiation: Evidence for oceanic Atlantic communities (2006, methodology): “This result is in agreement with reports of a high proportion of dead Prochlorococcus cells in surface subtropical Atlantic Ocean waters (Agustı́ 2004).”
• Prochlorococcus contributes to new production in the Sargasso Sea deep chlorophyll maximum (2007, background): “This work has included assessments of its distribution, abundance, in-situ growth rates and primary production [e.g., Agusti, 2004; Johnson et al., 2006]; experimental investigations of the influence of temperature, light, nutrients and trace metals on the its growth and physiology in culture and…”
