Microbial group specific uptake kinetics of inorganic phosphate and adenosine-5’-triphosphate (ATP) in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre

We investigated the concentration dependent uptake of inorganic phosphate (Pi) and adenosine-5’-triphosphate (ATP) in microbial populations in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre (NPSG). We used radiotracers to measure substrate uptake into whole water communities, differentiated microbial size class...
