Characterization of putative iron responsive genes as species-specific indicators of iron stress in Thalassiosiroid diatoms
Iron (Fe) availability restricts diatom growth and primary production in large areas of the oceans. The physiological and molecular response to Fe limitation differs among diatom species, making it difficult to assess the Fe nutritional health of natural diatom populations. Accumulation of the pho...
