Emergence of metabolic coupling to the heterotroph Alteromonas promotes dark survival in Prochlorococcus

A. Coe, R. Braakman, S. J. Biller, A. Arellano, C. Bliem, N. N. Vo, K. von Emster, E. Thomas, M. DeMers, C. Steglich, J. Huisman, S. W. Chisholm

The paper shows that Prochlorococcus develops a dark-tolerant phenotype when co-cultured with Alteromonas, involving metabolic coupling and shifts in gene expression.
