Time-series metagenomics reveals changing protistan ecology of a temperate dimictic lake by Krinos, Arianna I., Bowers, Robert M., Rohwer, Robin R., McMahon, Katherine D., Woyke, Tanja, Schulz, Frederik

“…Results Based on small subunit rRNA genes extracted from the metagenomes and metagenome-assembled genomes of microeukaryotes, we identify shifts in the eukaryotic phytoplankton community over time, which we predict to be a consequence of reduced zooplankton grazing pressures after the invasion of a invasive predator (the spiny water flea) to the lake. …”
