Redfield revisited: variability of C:N:P in marine microalgae and its biochemical basis
Indexed incrossref
Abstract
A compilation of data on the elemental composition of marine phytoplankton from published studies was used to determine the range of C:N:P. The N:P ratio of algae and cyanobacteria is very plastic in nutrient-limited cells, ranging from
