The paper presents 28 high-quality genome sequences of Bathycoccus species, revealing structural variations and haplotype diversity, and provides genomic resources to study eukaryotic phytoplankton diversity and evolution.

This study compares microbial community dynamics in equatorial and temperate marine time-series, finding distinct ecological processes shaping their assembly and stability.

The paper shows that the distribution of protein folds in marine plankton communities deviates from a power law to a Type II Pareto distribution when scaling from individual genomes to communities.
