Prochlorococcus genetic transformation and genomics of nitrogen metabolism
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
Prochlorococcus, a unicellular cyanobacterium, is the most abundant phytoplankton in the oligotrophic, oceanic gyres where major plant nutrients such as nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) are at nanomolar concentrations. ...
Iron and Prochlorococcus/
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)
Iron availability and primary productivity in the oceans are intricately linked through photosynthesis. At the global scale we understand how iron addition induces phytoplankton blooms through meso-scale iron-addition ...
Sound use, sequential behavior and ecology of foraging bottlenose dolphins, Tursiops truncatus
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)
Odontocetes are assumed to use echolocation for navigation and foraging, but neither of these uses of biosonar has been conclusively demonstrated in free-ranging animals. Many bats are known to use echolocation throughout ...
Diversity of the marine cyanobacterium Trichodesmium : characterization of the Woods Hole culture collection and quantification of field populations
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)
Trichodesmium is a colonial, N2-fixing cyanobacterium found in tropical oceans. Species of Trichodesmium are genetically similar but several species exist together in the same waters. In order to coexist, Trichodesmium ...
Diversity and characterization of novel Cytochrome P450 2 genes in the marine teleost Fundulus Heteroclitus
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998)
Behavioral ecology of coral reef fishes at spawning aggregation sites
