Grazing Induced Shifts in Phytoplankton Cell Size Explain the Community Response to Nutrient Supply

Phytoplankton cell size is important for a multitude of functional traits such as growth rates, storage capabilities, and resistance to grazing. Because these response traits are correlated, selective effects on mean community cell size of one environmental factor should impact the ability of phytop...
