Fig. 7: Illustration of the impact of fungal parasites on biological and physical properties of single diatom cells and aggregates.
From: Fungal parasitism on diatoms alters formation and bio–physical properties of sinking aggregates
The blue and red text and arrows indicate the fungal-induced increase and decrease of each property, respectively. Diatom cells a and aggregates b are illustrated in light grey, diatom chlorophyll in green, fungal sporangium and zoospores in orange, and bacteria in dark grey.
