Arranging organisms into functional groups aids ecological research by grouping organisms
(irrespective of phylogenetic origin) that interact with environmental factors in similar ways …

Analysis of trait trade-offs, through which physiological traits requiring common resources
are 'traded'to optimize competitive advantage, provides a route to simplify and more readily …

Current research aimed to increase mixotrophic biomass from various organic carbon
sources by exploring best light conditions. Three substrates glucose, acetic acid and …

Microalgal biomass, known as the third generation feedstock for biofuels production, is
currently being explored mainly for lipids and functional components. However, the potential …

Mixotrophic protists are increasingly recognized for their significant contribution to carbon
(C) cycling. As phototrophs they contribute to photosynthetic C fixation, whilst as predators of …

With> 22 000 species in 880 genera occurring on all continents in almost every habitat, the
Orchidaceae is considered the most diverse and most widely distributed plant family on …

Microalgae productivity was doubled by designing an innovative mixotrophic cultivation
strategy that does not require gas–liquid transfer of oxygen or carbon dioxide. Chlorella …

Small eukaryotic phytoplankton are major contributors to global primary production and
marine biogeochemical cycles. Many taxa are thought to be mixotrophic, but quantitative …

Intricate networks of single-celled eukaryotes (protists) dominate carbon flow in the ocean.
Their growth, demise, and interactions with other microorganisms drive the fluxes of …
