Environmental context Organic phosphorus can be one of the major fractions of phosphorus
in many aquatic ecosystems. This paper discusses the distribution, cycling and ecological …

Phosphorus is a key element controlling the productivity of freshwater ecosystems, and
microbes drive most of its relevant biogeochemistry. Eutrophic lakes are generally …

Phosphorus is an essential macronutrient for all marine microorganisms. Dissolved organic
phosphorus (DOP) is an integral, dynamic part of the marine organic matter pool and of the …

Environmental DNA (eDNA) can be defined as the DNA pool recovered from an
environmental sample that includes both extracellular and intracellular DNA. There has …

Single-cell measurements of biochemical processes have advanced our understanding of
cellular physiology in individual microbes and microbial populations. Due to methodological …

For eutrophic lakes, patterns of phosphorus (P) measured by standard methods are well
documented but provide little information about the components comprising standard …

The impacts of different nutrient additions (N+ P, N+ P+ C, 4N+ P, 4N+ P+ C, N+ 2P) on the
growth of algae and bacteria were studied in a microcosm experiment. Since alkaline …

Utilization rates of inorganic and organic phosphorus by different picophytoplankton in the
oligotrophic ocean are not well quantified. We used radioisotope tracers of orthophosphate …

Since viral lysis and zooplankton grazing differ in their impact on the aquatic food web, it is
important to assess the relative importance of both mortality factors. In this study, an adapted …

Transformation of organic phosphorus (P) is directly related to a range of environmental
factors, therefore exploring their relationships is vital to understanding the biogeochemical …
