Towards an Ecological Understanding of Dinoflagellate Cyst Functions [PDF]

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2014
The life cycle of many dinoflagellates includes at least one nonflagellated benthic stage (cyst). In the literature, the different types of dinoflagellate cysts are mainly defined based on morphological (number and type of layers in the cell wall) and ...

Detecting DNA of multispecies dinoflagellate cysts in the sediment from three estuaries of Makassar strait and fishing port using CO1 primer: Is it CO1 primer suitable for detecting DNA dinoflagellate?

open access: yesمجلة بغداد للعلوم, 2023
Most dinoflagellate had a resting cyst in their life cycle.  This cyst was developed in unfavorable environmental condition. The conventional method for identifying dinoflagellate cyst in natural sediment requires morphological observation, isolating ...

Cyst-forming dinoflagellates in a warming climate [PDF]

open access: yesHarmful Algae, 2020
Many phytoplankton species, including many harmful algal bloom (HAB) species, survive long periods between blooms through formation of benthic resting stages. Because they are crucial to the persistence of these species and the initiation of new blooms, the physiology of benthic stages must be considered to accurately predict responses to climate ...

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 ...

Marine Environmental Change Induced by Anthropogenic Activities – From a Viewpoint of Aquatic Palynomorph Assemblages Preserved in Sediment Cores of Beppu Bay, West Japan

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Stratigraphic cluster analysis using aquatic palynomorphs preserved in the core sediments revealed a rapid eutrophication due to anthropogenic activities from the mid 1960s in Beppu Bay, East Kyushu, Japan. These assemblages were divided into three major

Flux variability of phyto- and zooplankton communities in the Mauritanian coastal upwelling between 2003 and 2008 [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2020
Continuous multiyear records of sediment-trap-gained microorganism fluxes are scarce. Such studies are important to identify and to understand the main forcings behind seasonal and multiannual evolution of microorganism flux dynamics. Here, we assess the

New physical and biological evidence of lateral transport affecting dinoflagellate cyst distribution in the benthic nepheloid layer along a land-sea transect off Figueira da Foz (Atlantic Iberian margin)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
IntroductionThe production of resting cysts is a key dispersal and survival strategy of many dinoflagellate species. However, little is known about the role of suspended cysts in the benthic nepheloid layer (BNL) in the initiation and decline of ...

Environmental Factors Affecting Spatial Dinoflagellate Cyst Distribution in Surface Sediments Off Aveiro-Figueira da Foz (Atlantic Iberian Margin)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Resting cysts of planktonic dinoflagellates, once produced, sink to the seabed where they can remain viable for a long time. These cysts have important ecological roles, such as acting as the inoculum for the development of planktonic populations ...

Palsys.org: an open-access taxonomic and stratigraphic database of organic-walled dinoflagellate cysts [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Micropalaeontology, 2023
It is with great pleasure that we introduce palsys.org (https://palsys.org/genus/, last access: 8 December 2023), a fully open-access taxonomic, stratigraphic and image database of organic-walled dinoflagellate cysts.

The Implication Inferred from the Expression of Small Heat-Shock Protein Genes in Dinoflagellate Resting Cysts Buried in Marine Sediment

open access: yesDiversity, 2021
Dinoflagellates are unicellular eukaryotic microalgae, occupying pivotal niches in aquatic ecosystems with great ecological, biological, and economic significance.
