Sampling bias misrepresents the biogeographical significance of constitutive mixotrophs across global oceans
Abstract
Aim: Most protist plankton are mixotrophic, with potential to engage in photoauto‐trophy and phagotrophy; however, the ecology of these organisms has been misdiag‐nosed for over a century. A large proportion of these organisms are constitutive mixotrophs (CMs), with an innate ability to photosynthesize. Here, for the first time, an analysis is presented of the biogeography of CMs across the oceans.Location: Global marine ecosystems.Time period:...
