Variability in the SIT genes transcribed by (A) major diatom lineages and (B) the most frequently observed genera in the surface waters at four locations along the Line P transect. (A) Percentage of SIT clades transcribed by centric, multipolar (excluding Thalassiosirales), and pennate diatoms lineages. Upper and lower pie charts are duplicate samples and numbers below the pie charts indicate the total number of SIT transcripts detected in each replicate. (B) Principal component analysis of the SIT clades transcribed at each station by genera with more than 100 detected transcripts. Genera include centric (Coreth = Corethron, Cosci = Coscinodiscus, Lepto = Leptocylindrus), multipolar (Chaet = Chaetoceros, Minuto = Minutocellus), Thalassiosirales (Thal = Thalassiosira, Mini = Minidiscus, Skel = Skeletonema), and pennate (Frag = Fragilariopsis, P‐n = Pseudo‐nitzschia, Phaeo = Phaeodactylum) diatoms.
