APPLICATION OF ELECTRIC FIELDS TO CONTROL POPULATION GROWTH OF Dunaliella tertiolecta IN VITRO

, 2008
Algae blooms are naturally occurring phenomena that exist worldwide. Harmful blooms can create a noxious kill zone capable of suffocating fish and poisoning people. This paper explores the application of electrical fields as a way to control growth in an

Combined Impact of Nanoplastics and Temperature on Green Algae: Implications for Growth, Lipid Content and Organic Exudates

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
The combined effects of nanoplastics and temperature on green algae were investigated. Higher NP concentration suppressed the temperature‐induced growth of the algae. Temperature plays a dominant role in influencing fatty acid composition and chemistry of AOM than exposure to NPs.

Long Term Copepod Culture Houses a Rich Microbial Eukaryotic Community Including New and Known Symbionts

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 72, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Copepods, dominant marine zooplankton, are hosts to microbial eukaryotic symbionts, but the copepod eukaryome remains largely unexplored. We used 18S rRNA gene primers with reduced metazoan amplification to identify microbial eukaryotes in a culture of Calanus finmarchicus (Copepoda).

Plastids in a Pinch: Coordinating Stress and Developmental Responses Through Retrograde Signalling

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 9, Page 6897-6911, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Plastids are crucial for fuelling and regulating plant growth and development. Photosynthesising chloroplasts provide energy for growth, while other plastids play additional key roles in various aspects of plant physiology. For function and development, plastids greatly depend on nucleus‐encoded proteins, and they can modulate the synthesis of

CO2‐Dependent Promotion of Photosynthesis Drives Metabolic Photoacclimation in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 177, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
ABSTRACT Light and inorganic carbon (Ci) drive photosynthesis, which fuels cellular maintenance, energy storage, and growth in photosynthetic organisms. Despite its pivotal role, how primary metabolism adjusts to contrasting light and Ci availability in algae remains elusive.

Enhancing Lipid Production of Dunaliella tertiolecta by Manipulating the Interactive Effect of Salinity and Nitrogen [PDF]

Chemical and Biochemical Engineering Quarterly, 2017
Low lipid yield is a major bottleneck towards the scale-up application of microalgae for biodiesel production. The focus of this study was to improve the lipid production of Dunaliella tertiolecta (a marine microalga) by altering the ...

Effect of sulfate availability on phytoplankton stoichiometry

Journal of Phycology, Volume 61, Issue 4, Page 895-910, August 2025.
Abstract Sulfur (S) is a key element in multiple metabolic pathways of phytoplankton cells. The effect of S availability on phytoplankton elemental quotas and stoichiometry has been addressed in few studies, using a limited number of species and with contradictory results.
