Single-cell genomics of multiple uncultured stramenopiles reveals underestimated functional diversity across oceans

The biology of many marine protists, such as stramenopiles, remains obscure. Here, the authors exploit single-cell genomics and metagenomics to analyze the genome content and apparent oceanic distribution of seven prevalent lineages of uncultured heterotrophic stramenopiles.
