Photosynthesis competent autotrophy should be established during the postgerminative stage of plant growth. Among the multiple factors, light plays a decisive role in the switch from heterotrophic to autotrophic growth. Under dark condition, the rapeseed

On the pathways feeding the H₂ production process in nutrient-replete, hypoxic conditions : commentary on the article 'Low oxygen levels contribute to improve photohydrogen production in mixotrophic non-stressed Chlamydomonas cultures', by Jurado-Oller et al., Biotechnology for Biofuels, published September 7, 2015; 8:149 [PDF]
Background: Under low O-2 concentration ( hypoxia) and low light, Chlamydomonas cells can produce H-2 gas in nutrient-replete conditions. This process is hindered by the presence of O-2, which inactivates the [FeFe]-hydrogenase enzyme responsible for H-2

Topic Modeling of Fatty Acid Studies: Evaluating Environmental Changes in Freshwater Ecosystems
ABSTRACT Fatty acids (FAs) are biochemical molecules with vital structural and metabolic functions in all living organisms. Over the last decades, FA analysis in ecological studies has garnered significant attention due to its diverse applicability, such as taxonomic support for species identification, investigations on trophic interactions, and ...

Processes controlling carbon cycling in Antarctic glacier surface ecosystems [PDF]
Glacier surface ecosystems, including cryoconite holes and cryolakes, are significant contributors to regional carbon cycles. Incubation experiments to determine the net production (NEP) of organic matter in cryoconite typically have durations of 6-24 ...

Abstract The significant contribution of phytoplankton to global primary production is regulated by several abiotic and biotic factors, which are often difficult to account for in natural systems. To address these challenges, we perturbed a summer plankton community from Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island, USA, by manipulating the temperature and nutrient ...

Abstract Increasing our knowledge about the structure and metabolism of the microbial plankton community in coastal upwelling systems is essential for efficiently managing the resources of these highly productive ecosystems. Here we explore seasonal variations of this community in the NW Iberian coastal upwelling system by measuring variables informing

Obligate autotrophy at the thermodynamic limit of life in a new acetogenic bacterium
One of the important current issues of bioenergetics is the establishment of the thermodynamic limits of life. There is still no final understanding of what is the minimum value of the energy yield of a reaction that is sufficient to be used by an ...

Predicting plankton net community production in the Atlantic Ocean [PDF]
We present, test and implement two contrasting models to predict euphotic zone net community production (NCP), which are based on 14C primary production (PO14CP) to NCP relationships over two latitudinal (ca.
