Highly enriched N-containing organic molecules of Synechococcus lysates and their rapid transformation by heterotrophic bacteria

Qiang Zheng et al.

Summary: Phytoplankton are major contributors of labile dissolved organic matter to marine euphotic zone ecosystems. Viral-mediated phytoplankton lysis releases a considerable amount of bioavailable cellular contents and facilitates localized heterotrophic bacterial growth. The study showed that viral lysis promoted the transformation ofSynechococcusbiomass to dissolved organic matter, and the organic molecules from relatively high molecular weight to low molecular weight, corresponding to variation in their bioavailability. TheSynechococcus-derived organic matter was highly enriched in N-containing organic molecules, and oligopeptides, nucleotides, and lipid compounds significantly increased with viral lysis.
