Cell size is a key ecological trait associated with biogeographic patterns of microbial eukaryotes in coastal waters

Body size is an important ecological trait, but it has been poorly explored in microbial communities. Here, we examined the effect of cell size on coastal eukaryotic communities across a size continuum of 0.2–3 (pico-), 3–20 (nano-), and 20–200 μm (micro-sized), which were characterized via high-thr...
