Preservation of Dinoflagellate Cysts in Different Oxygen Regimes: Differences in Cyst Survival between Oxic and Anoxic Natural Environments

open access: yesPhycology, 2022
This quantitative dinoflagellate cyst study reveals an enormous difference in survival rates in oxygenated versus anoxic sediments. Replicate samples of concentrated natural dinoflagellate cysts with the same initial species composition (1.4 × 104 ...

Morphological and Phylogenetic Characterisation of Prorocentrum spinulentum, sp. nov. (Prorocentrales, Dinophyceae), a Small Spiny Species from the North Atlantic

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Prorocentrum comprises dinophytes with several unique traits, including the presence of two large thecal plates and apical insertion of flagella. Species delimitation for many small and similar planktonic species is challenging, as SEM analyses and DNA ...

Dinoflagellates, a Unique Lineage for Retrogene Research

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
The birth and evolution of retrogenes have played crucial roles in genome evolution. Dinoflagellates represent a unique lineage for retrogene research because the retrogenes can be reliably identified by the presence of a 22 nucleotide splice leader ...

Mutualistic Interactions between Dinoflagellates and Pigmented Bacteria Mitigate Environmental Stress

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
Scleractinian corals form symbiotic relationships with a variety of microorganisms, including endosymbiotic dinoflagellates of the family Symbiodiniaceae, and with bacteria, which are collectively termed coral holobionts.

Dinoflagellate Host Chloroplasts and Mitochondria Remain Functional During Amoebophrya Infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Dinoflagellates are major components of phytoplankton that play critical roles in many microbial food webs, many of them being hosts of countless intracellular parasites.

Investigating A Multi-Domain Polyketide Synthase in Amphidinium carterae

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2023
Dinoflagellates are unicellular organisms that are implicated in harmful algal blooms (HABs) caused by potent toxins that are produced through polyketide synthase (PKS) pathways.

Palynofacies and Palaeoenvironment of the Sanganeh Formation, East and the Center of the Kopet-Dagh Basin [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Stratigraphy and Sedimentology Researches, 2021
In order to identify the palynofacies and to reconstruct the paleoenvironment of the Lower Cretaceous depositions in the Kopet-Dagh sedimentary basin, the Sanganeh Formation was sampled and studied.

Architectural Organization of Dinoflagellate Liquid Crystalline Chromosomes

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2019
Dinoflagellates have some of the largest genome sizes, but lack architectural nucleosomes. Their liquid crystalline chromosomes (LCCs) are the only non-architectural protein-mediated chromosome packaging systems, having high degrees of DNA superhelicity,

Symbiont starvation affects the stability of the coral–Symbiodiniaceae symbiosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Coral bleaching, the breakdown of the coral-Symbiodiniaceae association has been identified as a major cause of coral reef decline worldwide. When symbiont functions are compromised, corals receive fewer photosynthetic products from their symbionts and ...
