The effect of the salinity, light regime and food source on carbon and nitrogen uptake in a benthic foraminifer
<p>Foraminifera are unicellular organisms that play an important role in marine organic matter cycles. Some species are able to isolate chloroplasts from their algal food source and incorporate them as kleptoplasts into their own metabolic pathways, a phenomenon known as kleptoplastidy. One sp...
