Copepod-Associated Gammaproteobacteria Respire Nitrate in the Open Ocean Surface Layers
Microbial dissimilatory nitrate reduction to nitrite, or nitrate respiration, was detected in association with copepods in the oxygenated water column of the North Atlantic subtropical waters. These unexpected rates correspond to up to 0.09 nmol N copepod(−1) d(−1) and demonstrate a previously unacc...
