Protistal Grazers Increase Grazing on Unicellular Cyanobacteria Diazotroph at Night

In this study, we have for the first time analyzed diel microzooplankton grazing selectivity on unicellular cyanobacterial diazotroph (i.e., Crocosphaera watsonii WH8501) and non-diazotrophic unicellular microalga (i.e., Chlorella autotrophica). A mixed diet consisting of these two phytoplankton was...
