Picoeukaryotes(<2-3μm)are major oceanic primary producers and play a crucial role for the functioning of marine ecosystems.However,the community structure of such communities remains poorly understood,especially in t...
Seagrass ecosystem is a potential bank for carbon sink. In the paper, we compared the distribution of bacterioplankton, picoeukaryotes and Synechococcus in seagrass ecosystem in Xincun Bay and coral ecosystem in Sanya...
