Light induced transthylakoidal proton gradient is a key signal driving the downward migration of motile diatoms in sediments
Abstract Pennate diatoms are photosynthetic microorganisms capable of directed motility in response to light. In sedimentary habitats, many epipelic pennate diatoms exhibit photophobic migration under high light, a behaviour critical for avoiding photodamage and key to ecological success. While the...
