Use and detection of a vitamin B1 degradation product yields new views of the marine B1 cycle and plankton metabolite exchange

ABSTRACT Vitamin B1 (thiamin) is a vital nutrient for most cells in nature, including marine plankton. Early and recent experiments show that B1 degradation products instead of B1 can support the growth of marine bacterioplankton and phytoplankton. However, the use and occurrence of some degradation...
