We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

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 ...

Morphological and trophic coupling distinguishes coral clades along a light gradient
Abstract Light availability is critical to the growth and survival of most scleractinian corals due to their endosymbiotic relationship with photosynthetic dinoflagellates. Natural light gradients are expected to be associated with shifts in coral physiology, morphology, and trophic strategy.

Abstract Microzooplankton and mixoplankton are key regulators of marine food webs, yet their responses to ocean warming and thermal extremes remain incompletely integrated across physiological, community, and ecosystem scales. This synthesis examines how temperature shapes the physiology, trophic strategies, and community dynamics of these protistan ...

Heterotrophy of Oceanic Particulate Organic Matter Elevates Net Ecosystem Calcification
Coral reef calcification is expected to decline due to climate change stressors such as ocean acidification and warming. Projections of future coral reef health are based on our understanding of the environmental drivers that affect calcification and ...

An integrated bioinformatic pipeline combining taxonomic, functional, and network analyses revealed host‐driven structuring of macroalgal microbiomes. Phaeophyceae hosted distinct epiphytic communities enriched in chemoheterotrophy and polysaccharide degradation, highlighting metabolic coupling, keystone taxa, and a standardized framework for ...

Parasitic weeds of the family Orobanchaceae attach to the roots of host plants via haustoria capable of drawing nutrients from host vascular tissue. The connection of the haustorium to the host marks a shift in parasite metabolism from autotrophy to at ...

Abstract The long‐term storage of carbon by the biological carbon pump depends on the amount of organic carbon produced in sunlit waters, the depth at which that organic carbon is respired, and the time until the respired carbon is again in contact with the atmosphere. In the Southern Ocean, estimates of organic carbon export, net community production (
