DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2025638118
Abstract: Significance The marine unicellular cyanobacterium Prochlorococcus is the most abundant photosynthetic organism on Earth. Members of this genus are classically thought to be adapted to high-oxygen and nutrient-poor ocean conditions, with a principle divergence between… read more here.

DOI: 10.1128/aem.02271-20
Abstract: The unicellular picocyanobacterium Prochlorococcus is the numerically dominant phytoplankton in the oligotrophic ocean, contributing to the vast majority of marine primary production. Prochlorococcus releases a significant fraction of fixed organic matter into the surrounding environment… read more here.
