Abstract excerpt
Metal tolerance in marine diatoms vary between morphotypes, strains, and species due to their long-term adaptations to stochastic environments. The mechanisms underlying this highly variable trait remain a matter of interest in ecotoxicology. In this study, we used several cutting-edge techniques, including a non-invasive micro-test technique, atomic force microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy to...
