A database of phytoplankton macromolecular composition (protein, lipid, and carbohydrate) combined with measures of cell size (volume, C content, dry weight) with taxonomic information. References for each observation are included in the table.

See Finkel et al (2016) Size-scaling of macromolecules and chemical energy content in the eukaryotic microalgae. J Plank. Res. doi: 10.1093/plankt/fbw057 for analyses of this data.
