• Acquired phototrophy in aquatic protists (2009, background): “An Antarctic culture of M. rubra has been shown to have a much lower chlorophyllspecific rate of 0.6 to 1.25 pg C (pg chl a)–1 h–1 (Johnson & Stoecker 2005, Johnson et al. 2006); however, lower values are typical for Pmaxchl in polar phytoplankton (Cota et al. 1994).”
• Building the “perfect beast”: modelling mixotrophic plankton (2009, background): “A role for kleptochloroplasts in ciliates is clear (Stoecker et al., 1987; Stoecker and Silver, 1990; Johnson et al., 2006, 2007); it is logical to consider similar activity in mixotrophs consuming phototrophic prey, even if digestion is relatively rapid (half lives for digestion may be significant…”
