“…Global Biogeochemical Cycles qualitative shifts in genotypes highlighted above with changes in transcriptional outputs in cyanobacteria (Figures 9a and 9b), eukaryotic phytoplankton (Figures 9c, 9d, and S5), metazoans ( Figure S6 and supporting information S4), and more specifically in diatoms (Figures 9c, 9d, and S7). Importantly, ISIP levels were decreased in the leeward stations (Figures 5a, 9c, and 9d), and study of gene switches proposed to be responsive to ambient iron concentrations such as ferredoxin/flavodoxin, plastocyanin/cytochrome c 6 , and FBAI/FBAII (Allen et al, 2012;Mackey et al, 2015;Marchetti et al, 2012;Peers & Price, 2006;Pierella Karlusich et al, 2015;Thompson et al, 2011) revealed patterns generally consistent with increased bioavailability at Stations TARA_123-125 with respect to HNLC Station TARA_122 both in Synechococcus (Figures 9a and 9b) and in the major groups of eukaryotic phytoplankton (Figures 9c, 9d, S5, and S7). The abundance of proteorhodopsin and ferritin genes and mRNA in diatoms were generally also consistent with this hypothesis, with decreases in proteorhodopsin transcripts and increases in ferritin in Station TARA_123 with respect to Station TARA_122 (Figures 9c, 9d, and S7d).…”
