摘要： Diatoms have long been thought to dominate the marine silicon (Si) cycle, as well as play an important role in the ocean's carbon (C) export, due to density-driven particle sedimentation. Research in the past decade has shed new light on the potential importance of picocyanobacteria to C export, although the sinking mechanism is still unclear. Interestingly, the recent discovery of Si accumulation by picocyanobacteria of the genus Synechococcus has strong implications for the marine Si cycle, which may also have profound influence on the oceanic C export. Understanding the mechanisms of Synechococcus Si accumulation and its ecological effects are therefore critical for addressing wider issues such as Si and C exports by small cells via biological pump. Here, we show that recent advances in process studies indicate that the presence of Si within picocyanobacteria may be a common and universal feature. Subsequently, we generalize four biochemical forms of Si potentially present in picocyanobacterial cells, which are all different from diatomaceous opal-A, and hypothesize that these various structures of Si phases may be several stage products of Si precipitation. At the same time, several aspects of Si dynamics in Synechococcus are also discussed emphatically. In addition, we provide a first estimate of picocyanobacteria Si stock and production for the global ocean, accounting for 12% of the global Si inventory and 45% of the global annual Si production in the surface ocean, respectively. The implication is that picocyanobacteria may exert a significant influence on the marine Si cycle, which is likely to alter our understanding of the long-term control of the oceanic Si cycling by diatoms. Finally, we summarize three possible mechanisms and pathways through which picocyanobacteria-derived Si can be transported to the deep ocean. Altogether, marine picocyanobacteria, despite very small in cell size, are a non-negligible group for the export of biomineral Si to deeper waters and ocean sediments.
