Diel Oscillation of Microbial Gene Transcripts Declines With Depth in Oligotrophic Ocean Waters

Diel oscillations in primary and secondary production, growth, metabolic activity, and gene expression commonly occur in marine microbial communities in ocean surface waters. Diel periodicity of gene transcription has been demonstrated in photoautotrophic and heterotrophic microbes in both coastal a...
