It is of great theoretical and practical significance to understand the inherent relationship and
evolution patterns among various environmental factors in the oceans. In this study, we used …

Basin-scale biogeographic observations of marine pelagic pro-and eukaryotic communities
are necessary to understand forces driving community composition and for providing a …

Eukaryotic communities play an important role in the coastal ecosystem of Xiangshan Bay, a
narrow semi-closed bay famous for fisheries and marine farming. However, information on …

Biogeographic structure in marine protist communities is shaped by a combination of
dispersal potential and environmental selection. High‐throughput sequencing and global …

Body size is an important ecological trait, but it has been poorly explored in microbial
communities. Here, we examined the effect of cell size on coastal eukaryotic communities …

Marine microbial flagellates form an important part of marine ecosystems, and play an
essential role in maintaining ecosystem functions. However, the underlying biogeographic …

Bioregionalization consists in the identification of spatial units with similar species
composition and is a classical approach in the fields of biogeography and macroecology …

Microscopic eukaryotes are important components of coastal wetland ecosystems. The goal
of this study was to investigate the diversity of microeukaryotes in the tidal pools of a New …

A . The Southwest Atlantic Ocean (SWAO) is a spatially dynamic region with a
remarkably high primary productivity. An exhaustive identification of the members of its …

Phytoplankton are microscopic protists that are ubiquitous in the sunlit global ocean. These
organisms form the base of the marine food web and are essential to biogeochemical …
