To improve the current understanding of\n                    <jats:italic>Sargassum<\/jats:italic>\n                    biomass dynamics and the contribution of this productive algal bloom to carbon and nutrient fluxes between the Atlantic and the Caribbean, we characterized the growth and decomposition rates of this pelagic alga, nutrient release rates during litter decay, and the bacterial microbiome at several stages of this decay. The analysis revealed no exceptional growth under increased nutrient availability but a rapid biomass mineralization with a litter half-life of 16 days, comparable to phytoplankton. This fast decomposition triggers swift nutrient release, notably phosphorus, which fuels coastal eutrophication and may help explain oxygen depletion and toxic gas emission during massive beaching events. A microbial succession involving chemoheterotrophic and nitrogen-fixing bacteria predicts functions involved in the biomineralization of nitrogen and phosphorus-containing compounds that may facilitate such efficient phosphorus mineralization, supporting similar patterns in marine debris to terrestrial plant litter, where nutrients drive stage-specific patterns in microbial community succession during litter decomposition. Our results underscore the pivotal role of microbial communities in enhancing algal resilience to nutrient deprivation\u2014through the establishment of mutualistic associations with their host\u2014and in mediating global carbon and nutrient fluxes, an aspect of particular relevance to the marine phosphorus cycle. Ultimately, this study emphasizes the severe ecological threat that massive\n                    <jats:italic>Sargassum<\/jats:italic>\n                    tides pose to marine health and public safety at the coast.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3389\/fpls.2026.1918885","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,5]],"date-time":"2026-10-05T16:20:04Z","timestamp":1791217204000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Microbial community dynamics mediate rapid biomass loss and phosphorus recycling in pelagic Sargassum"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Roberto","family":"Vel\u00e1zquez-Ochoa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Photobiology and Functional Allometry, Unidad Acad\u00e9mica de Sistemas Arrecifales Puerto Morelos, Instituto de Ciencias del Mar y Limnolog\u00eda, Universidad Nacional Aut\u00f3noma de M\u00e9xico","place":["Cancun, Mexico"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vivian Y.","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of California","place":["Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA, United States"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Wiebke E.","family":"Kr\u00e4mer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Photobiology and Functional Allometry, Unidad Acad\u00e9mica de Sistemas Arrecifales Puerto Morelos, Instituto de Ciencias del Mar y Limnolog\u00eda, Universidad Nacional Aut\u00f3noma de M\u00e9xico","place":["Cancun, Mexico"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M\u00f3nica","family":"Medina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of California","place":["Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA, United States"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Susana","family":"Enr\u00edquez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Photobiology and Functional Allometry, Unidad Acad\u00e9mica de Sistemas Arrecifales Puerto Morelos, Instituto de Ciencias del Mar y Limnolog\u00eda, Universidad Nacional Aut\u00f3noma de M\u00e9xico","place":["Cancun, Mexico"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"B15","unstructured":"Github - Zhonghuigai\/Veganex\n          \n          \n          2021"},{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"21","DOI":"10.1016\/j.dsr2.2017.10.002","article-title":"Potential contribution of surface-dwelling Sargassum algae to deep-sea ecosystems in the southern North Atlantic","volume":"148","author":"Baker","year":"2018","journal-title":"Deep-Sea Res.
