Lineage-specific growth curves document large differences in response of individual groups of marine bacteria to the top-down and bottom-up controls
Marine bacterioplankton represent a diverse assembly of species differing largely in their abundance, physiology, metabolic activity, and role in microbial food webs. To analyze their sensitivity to bottom-up and top-down controls, we performed a manipulation experiment where grazers were removed, w...
