Heterotrophy in Diatoms [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of General Microbiology, 1953
SUMMARY: Forty-two bacteria-free cultures of pennate diatoms from fresh water or soil were tested for ability to grow heterotrophically with glucose as the sole carbon source. Thirteen of these isolates proved capable of growth under these conditions.

Diatom Proteomics Reveals Unique Acclimation Strategies to Mitigate Fe Limitation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Phytoplankton growth rates are limited by the supply of iron (Fe) in approximately one third of the open ocean, with major implications for carbon dioxide sequestration and carbon (C) biogeochemistry.

Temperature and light requirements for growth of two diatom species (Bacillariophyceae) isolated from an Arctic macroalga [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In the present study, two abundant epiphyticdiatom taxa were isolated from the assimilation hairs ofthe brown macroalga Chordaria flagelliformis collected inthe Arctic Kongsfjorden (Spitsbergen, Norway), establishedas unialgal cultures and their growth ...

The mysteries of the diatoms [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2012
Understanding the physiology of these unique and spectacularly successful algal species could lead to substantial benefits in a wide range of areas from nanotechnology to climate change. Michael Gross reports.

Photosynthesis acclimation under severely fluctuating light conditions allows faster growth of diatoms compared with dinoflagellates

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2021
Background Diatoms contribute 20% of the global primary production and are adaptable in dynamic environments. Diatoms always bloom earlier in the annual phytoplankton succession instead of dinoflagellates.

A new pathogen transmission mechanism in the ocean: the case of sea otter exposure to the land-parasite Toxoplasma gondii. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Toxoplasma gondii is a land-derived parasite that infects humans and marine mammals. Infections are a significant cause of mortality for endangered southern sea otters (Enhydra lutris nereis), but the transmission mechanism is poorly understood.

Copper in Diatoms [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1947
WORK undertaken in this Laboratory suggests that certain species of diatoms, which are the normal constituents of the slime film which forms upon a submerged surface in marine waters, contain copper, far in excess of the amount usually considered lethal for unicellular Algae.

High Growth Rate of Diatoms Explained by Reduced Carbon Requirement and Low Energy Cost of Silica Deposition

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
The rapid growth of diatoms makes them one of the most pervasive and productive types of plankton in the world’s ocean, but the physiological basis for their high growth rates remains poorly understood.

Seasonal changes in the biochemical fate of carbon fixed by benthic diatoms in intertidal sediments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Benthic diatoms are important primary producers in intertidal marine sediments and form the basis of the food web in these ecosystems. In order to investigate the carbon flow within diatom mats, we performed in situ 13C pulse-chase labeling experiments ...

Diversity and abundance of diatoms (Bacillariophyceae) in sediments of the south coast of Iran [PDF]

open access: yesبوم‌شناسی آبزیان, 2018
In this stud, the diversity and abundance of benthic diatoms were evaluated in 9 stations located in Persian Gulf (Sirik) and Oman Sea (Gwatar, Abshirinkon) in winter and spring of 1394 -1395.
