A genetic transformation system for the heterotrophic diatom Nitzschia putrida (Bacillariophyceae)

Journal of Phycology, Volume 61, Issue 5, Page 1116-1123, October 2025.
Abstract Diatoms are important primary producers in aquatic ecosystems. Most of them are photoautotrophs and have evolved to thrive under diverse environmental conditions from the poles to the tropics. However, some diatom species such as Nitzschia putrida have lost photosynthesis and have therefore become free‐living secondary heterotrophs.

Additive Effects of Multiple Photoprotective Mechanisms Drive Efficient Photosynthesis Under Variable Light Conditions

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 10, Page 7186-7198, October 2025.
ABSTRACT To cope with changing external conditions, plants undergo dynamic acclimation processes that adjust their photosynthetic machinery, optimising energy use while minimising damage to photosystems (PS). Key photoprotective mechanisms include non‐photochemical quenching (NPQ), which dissipates excess excitation energy, and alternative electron ...

Optimising the Decarboxylation of Anacardic Acid by Exploring the Temperature Effects

Journal of Chemistry, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) is one of the raw materials extracted from cashew nut shells (CNS). This liquid can be processed to produce cardanol through the decarboxylation of anacardic acid, a significant isolate from CNSL. The decarboxylation process involves heating anacardic acid to a favourable reaction temperature.

Changing patterns of home visiting in general practice: an analysis of electronic medical records

BMC Family Practice, 2006
Background In most European countries and North America the number of home visits carried out by GPs has been decreasing sharply. This has been influenced by non-medical factors such as mobility and pressures on time.

The blue–green light‐dependent state transition in the marine phytoplankton Ostreococcus tauri

New Phytologist, Volume 244, Issue 5, Page 1837-1846, December 2024.
Summary We explored the adaptive mechanisms of Ostreococcus tauri, a marine picophytoplankton with a ubiquitous ocean presence. We aimed to understand its photosynthetic acclimation, as featured in the cryo‐EM structure of its photosystem I (PSI) supercomplex.

Identifying the gene responsible for non‐photochemical quenching reversal in Phaeodactylum tricornutum

The Plant Journal, Volume 120, Issue 5, Page 2113-2126, December 2024.
SUMMARY Algae such as diatoms and haptophytes have distinct photosynthetic pigments from plants, including a novel set of carotenoids. This includes a primary xanthophyll cycle comprised of diadinoxanthin and its de‐epoxidation product diatoxanthin that enables the switch between light harvesting and non‐photochemical quenching (NPQ)‐mediated ...
