There are numerous strains of Chlorella with a corresponding variety of metabolic pathways. A strain we previously isolated from wastewater in northern Sweden can grow heterotrophically as well as autotrophically in light and has higher lipid contents ...

Abstract Cross‐shelf interactions and the associated lateral transport of organic carbon remain poorly quantified and constrained by observations, despite their importance for the ocean carbon cycle. Filaments generated by instabilities of coastal currents are one pathway for this exchange, but their transport is difficult to observe at basin scales ...

Cooperative motility, force generation and mechanosensing in a foraging non-photosynthetic diatom
Diatoms are ancestrally photosynthetic microalgae. However, some underwent a major evolutionary transition, losing photosynthesis to become obligate heterotrophs. The molecular and physiological basis for this transition is unclear.

Marine Functional Connectivity Contributes to Ecosystem Functioning Across Multiple Scales
ABSTRACT The passive transport and active movements of marine organisms between habitats and ecosystems, known as marine functional connectivity, play a critical role in the functioning of marine ecosystems. However, marine functional connectivity, particularly at large spatial scales, is often understudied, and consequently tends to be overlooked in ...

Heterotrophy and Nitrogen Fixation in Chlorogloea fritschii [PDF]
The blue-green alga Chlorogloea fritschii fixed elementary nitrogen to a limited extent in the dark in a strictly inorganic medium. Growth and nitrogen fixation continued in the dark when a suitable organic substrate was present in the medium. Among the organic substrates tested, sucrose (0.01 M) was the most readily utilized and was outstanding in ...

Resource partitioning of phytoplankton metabolites that support bacterial heterotrophy [PDF]
Abstract The communities of bacteria that assemble around marine microphytoplankton are predictably dominated by Rhodobacterales, Flavobacteriales, and families within the Gammaproteobacteria. Yet whether this consistent ecological pattern reflects the result of resource-based niche partitioning or resource competition requires better ...

IntroductionMarine microbial eukaryotes are major contributors to oceanic biodiversity and biogeochemical cycling in both surface and deep waters, yet their functional diversity and distribution remain incompletely understood.

Warm core, anticyclonic rings that spin off from the Gulf Stream circulate through the region directly offshore of the Mid-Atlantic Bight. If a warm core ring reaches the continental shelf break, its warm, highly saline water may subduct under cooler ...

This study aimed to examine the impact of crude glycerol as the main carbon source on the growth, cell morphology, and production of high-value-added metabolites of two microalgal species, namely Chlorella vulgaris and Scenedesmus quadricauda, under ...

This study compares primary dolomite precipitation in modern and ancient environments, varying from coastal to transitional to continental saline environments. The microbially mediated dolomites are characterised by high Sr concentrations. Here, various geochemical proxies are studied and compared to previous findings.
