Influence of diatom diversity on the ocean biological carbon pump (2017, background): “So far, specific features of diatom gene repertoires that have been proposed to underpin their ecological success include: (1) an overabundance of cyclins and heat shock transcription factors that may facilitate the capacity of diatoms to bloom rapidly and respond to changing environments103; (2) a ”
Insights into global diatom distribution and diversity in the world’s ocean (2016, background): “The quantification of diatom diversity and its variations across space (and time) is thus important for understanding fundamental questions of diatom speciation and their tight coupling with the global silica and carbon cycles (8, 11), as well as for understanding marine ecosystem resilience to huma”
Rethinking the marine carbon cycle: Factoring in the multifarious lifestyles of microbes (2015, background): “common algal lineages illustrates this diversity and its influence on ocean biogeochemistry: Some stramenopiles have silicate frustules of nanoscale precision (diatoms), whereas others are naked; haptophytes can be covered in ornate calcium carbonate plates (coccolithophores), whereasmany picoplankt”
