Environmental Factors, Not Biotic Competitive Interactions, Drive the Relative Abundance of Diatoms and Chlorophyta in the Coastal Areas of the Beibu Gulf: Evidence From 18S rDNA Metabarcoding and Partial Least Squares‐Path Modeling Analysis

ABSTRACT Diatoms and Chlorophyta are two major phyla of phytoplankton in marine ecosystems. The quantitative detection of the population succession and the interaction between them in natural marine ecosystems is a key challenge that ecologists face. In this study, using high‐throughput sequencing (...
