Biochemical remodeling of phytoplankton cell composition under climate change

Domesticate Rotifers Using Natural Eutrophic Phytoplankton

In the evolving landscape of sustainable agriculture, a novel approach to animal feed production is gaining remarkable momentum, promising to revolutionize the aquaculture and livestock industries alike. Scientists Guo, Liu, and Yang have pioneered a groundbreaking method to domesticate rotifers, microscopic aquatic animals, using naturally occurring phytoplankton harvested from eutrophic waters. This innovative development, as detailed in their…

Biochemical remodeling of phytoplankton cell composition under climate change

The macromolecular composition of phytoplankton shapes the nutrition available to marine ecosystems and regulates the interwoven global ocean cycles of carbon and nutrients. Despite these fundamental roles, there is currently no global-scale prediction on the distribution of phytoplankton macromo...
