Extreme plasticity in the photosystem composition of a low-light Prochlorococcus ecotype in response to iron and light
Xin Zhang, William G. Sunda, Haizheng Hong, Dalin Shi*Limnology and Oceanography Lettershttps://doi.org/10.1002/lol2.10441Published: 28 September 2024Abstract Light affects the cellular iron (Fe) requirement of phytoplankton because of its presence in major photosynthetic proteins. Thus, interactions between variable Fe concentrations and light intensities could restrict photosynthetic carbon f...
