… Novel phytoplankton communities, and the functions they mediate, will emerge as the climate
changes through a combination of turnover in species composition (Yvon-Durocher et al. …

Chloroplasts communicate information by signalling to nuclei during acclimation to fluctuating
light. Several potential operating signals originating from chloroplasts have been proposed…

Phytoplankton are key components of aquatic ecosystems, fixing CO 2 from the atmosphere
through photosynthesis and supporting secondary production, yet relatively little is known …
