Prochlorococcus strain MIT9301 can grow on methylphosphonate or hydroxymethylphosphonate as sole P source. MIT9301 cultures were grown in Pro99 medium containing the indicated P source added at a concentration of 50 μM. Error bars represent one standard deviation of the mean cell density from triplicate cultures. Dashed gray lines represent the modeled logistic growth on each P substrate.
