• The role of mixotrophic protists in the biological carbon pump (2013, background): “Now, however, it appears that mixotrophic protists are indeed nearly ubiquitous in mature ecosystems (Sanders, 1991a; Stoecker et al., 2009; Sanders and Gast, 2012; Flynn et al., 2013), though exceptions certainly occur (Arenovski et al., 1995; Sanders et al., 2000).”
• Zooplankton and the Ocean Carbon Cycle. (2017, background): “Trophic interactions within the microbial component of food webs are further complicated by widespread mixotrophy, in which pigmented, photosynthetically capable cells also possess the ability to consume prey (Thingstad et al. 1996, Stoecker 1998, Stoecker et al. 2009, Flynn et al. 2013).”
• Misuse of the phytoplankton-zooplankton dichotomy : the need to assign organisms as mixotrophs within plankton functional types (2013, background): “…of protist functionality; molecular screening approaches also need careful interpretation, not least because of the complexity of protist evolution (Sanchez-Puerta and Delwiche, 2008; Stoecker et al., 2009) which results in genomic and proteomic signatures being smeared across protist groups.”
• Capacity of herbivorous protists to control initiation and development of mass phytoplankton blooms (2009, background): “…for persistence of protists at low prey abundance are sequestration of chloroplasts by mixotrophic ciliates as a food resource (Stoecker 1991, Stoecker et al. 2009, this Special Issue) or feeding on alternate prey such as bacteria or other heterotrophic protists (Sherr et al. 1989, Bernard &…”
• Characterizing photosymbiosis in modern planktonic foraminifera (2019, unknown): “As suggested in Stoecker et al. (2009), we think photosymbiosis can be regarded as a spectrum from absolute non-symbiosis (heterotrophy) to more robust symbiosis (higher extent of acquired phototrophy/mixotrophy) which ends with a permanent plastid endosymbiosis seen in autotrophs.”
• Bridging the gap between marine biogeochemical and fisheries sciences; configuring the zooplankton link (2014, background): “The ability to photosynthesize, through acquired phototrophy, in organisms such as ciliates (Stoecker et al., 2009) provides an important additional nutritional route in addition to phagotrophy.”
• Copepod feeding in the ocean: scaling patterns, composition of their diet and the bias of estimates due to microzooplankton grazing during incubations (2011, background): “Assuming that most dinoflagellates exhibit a certain degree of heterotrophy (Stoecker et al., 2009), both groups of microheterotrophs together comprise 63% of the diet of copepods in \50 lg C l environments.”
• Mixotrophic protists and a new paradigm for marine ecology: where does plankton research go now? (2019, background): “, 2013; Stoecker and Lavrentyev, 2018), while the NCMs generally tend to be larger (eSNCMs up to mm dimensions, e.g. green Noctiluca; Saito et al., 2006; Stoecker et al., 2009) (Figs 3 and 4b).”
