Intracellular isotope localization in Ammonia sp. (Foraminifera) of oxygen-depleted environments: results of nitrate and sulfate labeling experiments

Intracellular isotope localization in Ammonia sp. (Foraminifera) of oxygen-depleted environments: results of nitrate and sulfate labeling experiments

Some benthic foraminiferal species are reportedly capable of nitrate storage and denitrification, however, little is known about nitrate incorporation and subsequent utilization of nitrate within their cell. In this study, we investigated where and how much 15N or 34S were assimilated into foraminif...
