Prokaryotes represent the largest living biomass reservoir in aquatic environments and play a crucial role in the global ocean. However, the factors that shape the abundance and potential growth rate of the ecologically distinct prokaryotic subgroups [i.e., high nucleic acid (HNA) and low nucleic acid (LNA) cells] along varying trophic conditions in the ocean remain poorly understood. This study conducted a series of modified dilution experiments to investigate how the abundance and potential growth rate of HNA and LNA prokaryotes and
