Autotrophic processes in meromictic Big Soda Lake, Nevada [PDF]

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, 1983
Daily rates of oxygenic photosynthesis (OP) by phytoplankton, anoxygenic photosynthesis (AP) by purple sulfur bacteria, and chemoautotrophic productivity (CP = dark CO2 assimilation) were measured once each season in saline, meromictic Big Soda Lake. Total daily productivity and the relative importance of each autotrophic process varied with seasonal ...

Conservation and dissipation of light energy as complementary processes: homoiohydric and poikilohydric autotrophs [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2006
The relationship between photosynthetic energy conservation and thermal dissipation of light energy is considered, with emphasis on organisms which tolerate full desiccation without suffering photo-oxidative damage in strong light. As soon as water becomes available to dry poikilohydric organisms, they resume photosynthetic water oxidation. Only excess

Qualitative Distinction of Autotrophic and Heterotrophic Processes at the Leaf Level by Means of Triple Stable Isotope (C–O–H) Patterns [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Foliar samples were harvested from two oaks, a beech, and a yew at the same site in order to trace the development of the leaves over an entire vegetation season. Cellulose yield and stable isotopic compositions (δ13C, δ18O, and δD) were analyzed on leaf

Cultivation of the microalgae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and Desmodesmus quadricauda in highly deuterated media: Balancing the light intensity

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
The production of organic deuterated compounds in microalgal systems represents a cheaper and more versatile alternative to more complicated chemical synthesis.

Dinitrogen oxide production by a mixed culture of nitrifying bacteria during ammonia shock loading and aeration failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
A number of experiments was conducted in order to establish if N2O in the exhaust gas from an aerobic consortium of nitrifiers could be used as an indicator for monitoring the nitrification process.

Improving carbon monoxide tolerance of Cupriavidus necator H16 through adaptive laboratory evolution

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Background: The toxic gas carbon monoxide (CO) is abundantly present in synthesis gas (syngas) and certain industrial waste gases that can serve as feedstocks for the biological production of industrially significant chemicals and fuels.

Research progress on sulfur-based composite filler applied to denitrification of wastewater

open access: yesGongye shui chuli
Sulfur autotrophic denitrification technology has been widely concerned in advanced denitrification of wastewater treatment due to its lower cost, less sludge production and without secondary pollution.

The heterotrophic-combined-with-autotrophic denitrification process: performance and interaction mechanisms

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 2015
In this work, the interaction mechanisms between an autotrophic denitrification (AD) and heterotrophic denitrification (HD) process in a heterotrophic-autotrophic denitrification (HAD) system were investigated, and the performance of the HAD system under different S/Ac− molar ratios was also evaluated.

Interaction effects in microbiota-filter media-pharmaceutical in biofilm-based reactors: a case study of anoxic biofilters

open access: yesEnvironment International
The removal of micropollutants, particularly pharmaceuticals, from wastewater remains a significant challenge due to their persistence and complex degradation mechanisms.

Phytoplankton Orientation in a Turbulent Ocean: A Microscale Perspective

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Phytoplankton are by definition autotrophic microorganisms that passively drift with fluid motion. Accordingly, the traditional view of a turbulence-homogenized phytoplankton distribution in the ocean, where cells randomly organize and interact, is ...
