Comparison of polyhydroxybutyrate content produced by Spirulina sp. under conditions of autotraphic, heterotrophic and mixotrophic cultures [PDF]
Polyhydroxybutyrate is one of the biodegradable compounds which is produced by cyanobacteria Spirulina sp. In this study, cyanobacteria Spirulina sp isolated from water reservoirs of Guilan province were cultured in Zarrouk medium for 20 days and were ...

Effects of wastewater treatment plant pollution on in-stream ecosystems functions in an agricultural watershed [PDF]
We studied the effect of point-source and non-point-source pollution on the retention capacity of the stream and its link with the metabolic state (primary production and respiration) and invertebrates assemblages in a third order Mediterranean stream ...

Abstract The carbon sequestration capacity of the biological carbon pump (BCP) is determined by surface ocean carbon fixation and the transportation of fixed carbon to the ocean interior, which is closely linked to the trophic structure of planktonic ecosystem.

Large D/H variations in bacterial lipids reflect central metabolic pathways [PDF]
Large hydrogen-isotopic (D/H) fractionations between lipids and growth water have been observed in most organisms studied to date. These fractionations are generally attributed to isotope effects in the biosynthesis of lipids, and are frequently assumed ...

Although most of the tens of thousands of diatom species are obligate photoautotrophs, many mixotrophic species can also use extracellular organic carbon for growth, and a small number of obligate heterotrophs have lost photosynthesis entirely.

Abstract Increasing freshwater discharge from the cryosphere has the potential to affect mechanisms that regulate the supply of macronutrients to primary producers in the ocean. Although numerous studies have characterized the biogeochemical effects of freshwater discharge from the Greenland Ice Sheet within fjords, it is unclear to what extent these ...

Abstract Increasing our knowledge about the structure and metabolism of the microbial plankton community in coastal upwelling systems is essential for efficiently managing the resources of these highly productive ecosystems. Here we explore seasonal variations of this community in the NW Iberian coastal upwelling system by measuring variables informing

The compositional and evolutionary logic of metabolism
Metabolism displays striking and robust regularities in the forms of modularity and hierarchy, whose composition may be compactly described. This renders metabolic architecture comprehensible as a system, and suggests the order in which layers of that ...
