Basin scale variability of active diazotrophs and nitrogen fixation in the North Pacific, from the tropics to the subarctic Bering Sea (2017, methodology): “Sequences of the TaqMan primer and probe sets are published elsewhere [Foster et al., 2007; Shiozaki et al., 2014b; Langlois et al., 2008; Thompson et al., 2014].”
Nitrogen fixation by unicellular diazotrophic cyanobacteria in the temperate oligotrophic North Pacific Ocean (2007, methodology): “Group C has only been recently identified and reported from the Western Tropical North Atlantic (WTNA) (Langlois et al. 2005; Foster et al. 2007).”
Distribution of diverse nitrogen fixers in the global ocean (2010, background): “Observed DDAs are mostly between Richelia intracellularis autotroph diazotrophs andHemiaulus hauckii or Rhizosolenia clevei diatoms [Venrick, 1974; Villareal, 1991; Carpenter et al., 1999; Gomez et al., 2005; Foster et al., 2007].”
Biogeographical controls on the marine nitrogen fixers (2011, background): “river input of phosphate influences DDA concentrations to be much higher there than further offshore [Carpenter et al., 1999; Foster and Zehr, 2006; Foster et al., 2007].”
Diazotroph derived nitrogen supports diatom growth in the South West Pacific: A quantitative study using nanoSIMS (2016, background): “…spp. (Het-1; Church et al. 2005) and Hemiaulus spp. (Het-2; Foster et al. 2007), Calothrix spp. associated with Chaetoceros spp. (Het-3; Foster et al. 2007), as well as the unicellular groups UCYNA1 (Church et al. 2005), UCYN-A2 (Thompson et al. 2014), UCYN-B (Moisander et al. 2010),…”
Seasonality of N2 fixation and nifH gene diversity in the Gulf of Aqaba (Red Sea) (2009, methodology): “These included primers and probes for the nifH gene of the unicellular groups B and C, and three heterocystous symbionts of diatoms (het-1, het-2, het-3) (Church et al. 2005a; Foster et al. 2007).”
The Mekong River plume fuels nitrogen fixation and determines phytoplankton species distribution in the South China Sea during low and high discharge season (2010, background): “…0.13 mmol L21), and silicate (Si[OH]4) (0.3–11.3 mmol L21), while Trichodesmium and different groups of free-living unicellular cyanobacteria were more abundant in oceanic waters outside the river plume, where nutrients were below the detection limit (Foster et al. 2007; Subramaniam et al. 2008).”
