The BYGENEX project aims to quantify oceanic bacterivory, a crucial process in marine ecosystems. By utilizing genomic tools to study the grazers of marine bacteria, the project seeks to enhance understanding of nutrient cycling and the impact of environmental changes on marine food webs.
Oceanic bacterivory is the process through which marine bacteria are grazed by microbial eukaryotes.
It consumes a large fraction of bacterial production, transfers bacterial biomass to upper trophic levels, and completes the inorganic nutrient recycling needed for regenerated primary production.
Global estimates indicate that ~15% of the Earth's primary production circulates through this process.
Despite its central role in marine food webs, the identity of the dominant grazers is not well know…
