Net growth rate of ultraplankton in the presence (Treatment, solid bars) and absence (Control, open bars) of the Haliclona–Ceratodictyon association. Values are means ± S.D. *Significant differences between treatments and controls and time of day (^), day (open circles) vs night (closed circles) (P<0.05). Significant seasonal differences (P<0.05) are present if treatments (winter vs summer) do not share an underline.
