A glimpse into the biogeography, seasonality, and ecological functions of arctic marine Oomycota by Brandon T. Hassett, Marco Thines, Anthony Buaya, Sebastian Ploch, R. Gradinger

“…We found Arctic marine Oomycota encode numerous genes involved in parasitism and carbon cycling processes. Ultimately, these data suggest that Arctic marine Oomycota are a reservoir of uncharacterized biodiversity, the majority of which are probably parasites of diatoms, while others might cryptically cycle carbon or interface other unknown ecological processes. …”
