Potential of Lipid Biosynthesis under Heterotrophy in the Marine Diatom Cyclotella cryptica

ACS Sustainable Chemistry and Engineering, 2023
Despite the theoretical high productivity, microalgae-based oil production is not economically sustainable due to the high cost of photoautotrophic cultures.

Diazotroph-Derived Nitrogen Assimilation Strategies Differ by Scleractinian Coral Species

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Reef-building corals generally thrive in nutrient-poor tropical waters, where among other elements, nitrogen (N) availability often limits primary productivity.

A Fast-Growing Oleaginous Strain of Coelastrella Capable of Astaxanthin and Canthaxanthin Accumulation in Phototrophy and Heterotrophy

Life, 2022
Considering the importance of microalgae as a promising feedstock for the production of both low- and high-value products, such as lipids and pigments, it is desirable to isolate strains which simultaneously accumulate these two types of products and ...

Screening Suitability of Northern Hemisphere Algal Strains for Heterotrophic Cultivation and Fatty Acid Methyl Ester Production

Molecules, 2020
Rapid rises in atmospheric CO2 levels derived from fossil fuel combustion are imposing urgent needs for renewable substitutes. One environmentally friendly alternative is biodiesel produced from suitable microalgal fatty acids.

Levels of autotrophy and heterotrophy in mesophotic corals near the end photic zone

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Mesophotic corals live at ~30-150 m depth and can sustain metabolic processes under light-limited conditions by enhancing autotrophy through specialized photoadaptations or increasing heterotrophic nutrient acquisition.

Myco-heterotrophy: when fungi host plants [PDF]

Annals of Botany, 2009
Myco-heterotrophic plants are partly or entirely non-photosynthetic plants that obtain energy and nutrients from fungi. These plants form a symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal, ectomycorrhizal or saprotrophic fungi to meet their nutrient demands.This Botanical Briefing summarizes current knowledge about myco-heterotrophy, discusses its controversial ...

Oxygen and heterotrophy affect calcification of the scleractinian coral Galaxea fascicularis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Heterotrophy is known to stimulate calcification of scleractinian corals, possibly through enhanced organic matrix synthesis and photosynthesis, and increased supply of metabolic DIC.

No short-term effect of sinking microplastics on heterotrophy or sediment clearing in the tropical coral Stylophora pistillata

Scientific Reports, 2022
Investigations of encounters between corals and microplastics have, to date, used particle concentrations that are several orders of magnitude above environmentally relevant levels.

Crenarchaeal heterotrophy in salt marsh sediments [PDF]

The ISME Journal, 2014
Abstract Mesophilic Crenarchaeota (also known as Thaumarchaeota) are ubiquitous and abundant in marine habitats. However, very little is known about their metabolic function in situ. In this study, salt marsh sediments from New Jersey were screened via stable isotope probing (SIP) for heterotrophy by amending with a single 13C-labeled ...

Tracing the Trophic Plasticity of the Coral–Dinoflagellate Symbiosis Using Amino Acid Compound-Specific Stable Isotope Analysis

Microorganisms, 2021
The association between corals and photosynthetic dinoflagellates is one of the most well-known nutritional symbioses, but nowadays it is threatened by global changes.
