Particle shape impacts export and fate in the ocean through interactions with the globally abundant appendicularian Oikopleura dioica

Marine microbes exhibit highly varied, often non-spherical shapes that have functional significance for essential processes, including nutrient acquisition and sinking rates. There is a surprising absence of data, however, on how cell shape affects grazing, which is crucial for predicting the fate o...
