Using picoeukaryote communities to indicate the spatial heterogeneity of the Nordic Seas

Picoeukaryotes are an important, diverse and spatially variable component of marine microbial communities. However, little is known of their distribution in response to environmental heterogeneity. In this study, to understand the Nordic Seas picoeukaryotic community, eleven surface samples from dif...
