There is mention of several processes such as viral infection and lytic pathway, which lack hyperlinks, making it challenging for readers to access the information to fully comprehend the article. [5]The author also mentioned phenomena such as sloopy feeding and mucilaginous exopolymer in the first sentence of the 2nd paragraph, which he directly plagiarized from the book: 'Prescott's Principles of Microbiology', and did not even include it in the bibliography section. [6] The figure used to visually represent the microbial loop include organisms such as mesoplankton, microplankton, nanoplankton and picoplanton, none of which mentioned in the article and for none of them links were provided for the author to learn about them.
