Coastal Transient Niches Shape the Microdiversity Pattern of a Bacterioplankton Population with Reduced Genomes

ABSTRACT Globally dominant marine bacterioplankton lineages are often limited in metabolic versatility, owing to their extensive genome reductions, and thus cannot take advantage of transient nutrient patches. It is therefore perplexing how the nutrient-poor bulk seawater sustains the pelagic stream...
