Consumption of Picoplankton-Size Particles by Marine Ciliates: Effects of Physiological State of the Ciliate and Particle Quality

Ingestion of picoplankton-size particles was studied in two marine ciliates, a typical grazer of pico- and nano-plankton, the oligotrich Strombidium sulcatum, and a bacteriovorous scuticociliate, Uronema sp. In laboratory experiments, both logarithmic- (food-unlimited) and stationary-phase (food-lim...
