The marine trace gas dimethylsulfide (DMS) supplies sulfur to the atmosphere at a rate of 15–
40 Tg S per year, contributing to the production of atmospheric sulfate aerosols that …

Corals are considered one of the most complex microbial biospheres studied to date,
hosting thousands of bacterial phylotypes in species-specific associations. There are …

Interactions between primary producers and bacteria impact the physiology of both partners,
alter the chemistry of their environment, and shape ecosystem diversity,. In marine …

Globally, reef-building corals are the most prolific producers of dimethylsulphoniopropionate
(DMSP),, a central molecule in the marine sulphur cycle and precursor of the climate-active …

Dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) is one of the Earth's most abundant organosulfur
molecules, a signalling molecule 1, a key nutrient for marine microorganisms 2, 3 and the …

Metagenomics literally means “beyond the genome.” Marine microbial metagenomic
databases presently comprise∼ 400 billion base pairs of DNA, only∼ 3% of that found in 1 …

The compatible solute dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSP) has important roles in marine
environments. It is an anti-stress compound made by many single-celled plankton, some …

Marine bacteria play a central role in the degradation of dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP)
to dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and acrylic acid, DMS being critical to cloud formation and thereby …

A typical marine bacterial cell in coastal seawater contains only∼ 200 molecules of mRNA,
each of which lasts only a few minutes before being degraded. Such a surprisingly small …

The oceans contribute significantly to the global emissions of a number of atmospherically
important volatile gases, notably those containing sulfur, nitrogen and halogens. Such gases …
