Photosynthetic picoplankton

ID: photosynthetic-picoplankton

Photosynthetic picoplankton refers to a group of very small, photosynthetic microorganisms, typically less than 2 micrometers in diameter. These organisms are primarily composed of cyanobacteria and certain eukaryotic phytoplankton, such as green algae and dinoflagellates. Due to their size, photosynthetic picoplankton play a crucial role in aquatic ecosystems, particularly in marine environments.
