Short summary
Primary production helps regulate climate and is governed by nutrient availability. We used biogeochemical states and rates with proteomics to study how resource availability shapes metabolism in Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus. Both picocyanobacteria were phosphorus stressed in the western Atlantic, but Prochlorococcus was nitrogen, iron, zinc and cobalamin stressed in the east. Our findings provide species and ecotype level insights into oceanic nutrient acquisition and metabolism.
