MM14B:
The Microbial Phosphorus Cycle Posters
Session ID#: 84059
Session Description:
Phosphorus is a nutrient required by all forms of life, including the oceanâs smallest inhabitants. A culmination of research over the last several decades has transformed our view of the global phosphorus cycle to one that is highly influenced by the activity of microbes. Marine microbial communities play an active role in the transformation of P among its organic, inorganic, polymeric, oxidized, and reduced forms. Some of these processes serve to retain and recycle bioavailable P within the marine microbiota, while the significance of other transformations are still coming to light. Ultimately, the microbial utilization of marine P has implications for ocean productivity, especially under future ocean scenarios, where anthropogenic disturbances to marine nutrient cycles are expected to drive an increased demand for P in ocean ecosystems. The timing is therefore apt to examine the topic of microbial P cycling in the context of ocean ecosystem functioning and the socioeconomics of impacted marine environments. In this session, we welcome abstracts that examine how marine microbes shape and are shaped by the phosphorus cycle, and how the microbial P cycle impacts cycles of other bioelements, including present and future carbon dioxide and nitrogen fixation. Abstracts that leverage novel methodologies, including the application of molecular-level geochemical, biochemical, and bioinformatics approaches are particularly encouraged.
