Marine picocyanobacterial community structure ...
A surprising recent observation is that one of the smallest types marine phytoplankton, picocyanobacteria of the genus Synechococcus, can contain concentrations of silicon rivaling those found in diatoms. As part of an NSF-funded project exploring the implications of this observation, entitled '...
