Some adaptations of the anthocerophyte Megoceros pellucidus (Colenso) E.A.Hodgs. to extremely low light environments : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Plant Biology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
The New Zealand Anthocerophyte Megaceros pellucidus (Colenso) is found in wet, cool temperate rain forest and is associated with extremely low light habitats (0.5-7 μmoles photons m−² s−¹). The light available to M.

Abstract Islands in the tropical Pacific supply elevated nutrients to nearshore waters that enhance phytoplankton biomass and create hotspots of productivity in otherwise nutrient‐poor oceans. Despite the importance of these hotspots in supporting nearshore food webs, the spatial and temporal variability of phytoplankton enhancement and changes in the ...

Homogenisation of water and sediment bacterial communities in a shallow lake (lake Balihe, China)
Abstract Planktonic and benthic bacterial communities hold central roles in the functioning of freshwater ecosystems and mediate key ecosystem services such as primary production and nutrient remineralisation. Although it is clear that such communities vary in composition both within and between lakes, the environmental factors and processes shaping ...

The microbial community spatially varies during a Microcystis bloom event in Lake Kinneret
Abstract Cyanobacterial blooms in lakes frequently display high spatial heterogeneity, which may drive temporal changes in microbial community structure. Here we report on the spatial (horizontal and vertical) structure of the cyanobacteria community and of the co‐occurring heterotroph microbial community during a major lake‐wide bloom event at Lake ...

Functional and mutational analysis of the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b protein of thylakoid membranes. [PDF]
The precursor for a Lemna light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b protein (pLHCP) has been synthesized in vitro from a single member of the nuclear LHCP multigene family. We report the sequence of this gene.

Morphodynamics of chloroplast network control light-avoidance response in the non-motile dinoflagellate Pyrocystis lunula [PDF]
Photosynthetic algae play a significant role in oceanic carbon capture. Their performance, however, is constantly challenged by fluctuations in environmental light conditions. Here, we show that the non-motile single-celled marine dinoflagellate Pyrocystis lunula can internally contract its chloroplast network in response to light. By exposing the cell

Molecular Phylogeny of Chinese Thuidiaceae with emphasis on Thuidium and Pelekium [PDF]
We present molecular phylogenetic investigation of Thuidiaceae, especially on Thudium and Pelekium. Three chloroplast sequences (trnL-F, rps4, and atpB-rbcL) and one nuclear sequence (ITS) were analyzed. Data partitions were analyzed separately and in combination by employing MP (maximum parsimony) and Bayesian methods.
