Abstract The smallest algae, less than 3 μm in diameter, are the most abundant eukaryotes of the World Ocean. Their feeding on planktonic bacteria of similar size is globally important but physically enigmatic. Tiny algal cells tightly packed with the voluminous chloroplasts, nucleus, and mitochondria appear to have insufficient organelle-free space for prey internalization. Here, we present the first direct observations of how the 1.3-μm algae, which are only 1.6 times bigger in diameter than their prey, hold individual Prochlorococcus cells in their open hemispheric cytostomes. We explain this semi-extracellular phagocytosis by the cell size limitation of the predatory alga, identified as the Braarudosphaera haptophyte with a nitrogen (N2)-fixing endosymbiont. Because the observed semi-extracellular phagocytosis differs from all other types of protistan phagocytosis, we propose to name it "pomacytosis" (from the Greek πώμα for "plug").

We explain this semi-extracellular phagocytosis by the cell size limitation of the predatory alga, identified as the Braarudosphaera haptophyte with a nitrogen (N2)–fixing endosymbiont. Because the observed semi-extracellular phagocytosis differs from all other types of protistan phagocytosis, we propose to name it “pomacytosis” (from the Greek πώμα for “plug”). The global significance of microorganisms is a consequence of their astronomical numbers. This is certainly true for the smallest planktonic algae on earth, which are less than 3 μm in diameter and the most numerous eukaryotic organisms of the oceans. Contrary to the general belief that algae use only sunlight and dissolved mineral nutrients to grow, these microscopic plants consume large numbers of bacteria. Their acting as mini-predators on bacteria of nearly their own size is hard to imagine. A tiny algal cell is cramped with organelles—such as nucleus, mitochondria, chloroplasts—and there is simply no space inside this cell to engulf a large bacterium in the usual manner. To find out how the 1.3-μm–diameter haptophyte algae feed, we studied them using high-resolution electron microscopy. We found that prey handling by the alga differs from all other types of cell feeding. We showed that this alga holds the 0.8-μm–diameter prey in the open cytostome (cell mouth) and that, from among planktonic bacteria, the alga apparently selects a ball-shaped Prochlorococcus (an abundant cyanobacteria responsible for most of global photosynthesis) that tightly fits into the open cytostome like a plug. Instead of full prey digestion, we observed that the alga leaves behind the doughnut-shaped carcass of the prey. We conclude that such unusual feeding, which we call “pomacytosis”, of this tiny predatory alga is caused primarily by the space limitation inside its cell.
