Beyond Immunity: Functional Outcomes of Dietary Yeast and Seaweed β‐Glucans in Adult Canine Nutrition

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT β‐Glucans are functional compounds associated with health benefits; however, the physiological effects of different β‐glucan sources in dog foods remain incompletely understood. This study evaluated and compared the effects of β‐glucans derived from Euglena gracilis (seaweed) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast) on nutrient digestibility ...

Biotechnological exploitation of microalgae [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2015
Microalgae are a diverse group of single-cell photosynthetic organisms that include cyanobacteria and a wide range of eukaryotic algae. A number of microalgae contain high-value compounds such as oils, colorants, and polysaccharides, which are used by the food additive, oil, and cosmetic industries, among others.

Effects of Algae β‐Glucan Supplementation on the Performance and Intestinal Immune System of Healthy Weaned Piglets

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While β‐glucans from plants and yeasts have been extensively studied in weaned piglets, studies examining algae β‐glucans are scarce. Thus, the present study aimed to examine the effects of feeding algae β‐glucan in weaned piglets. Male, 21‐day‐old, weaned crossbred piglets were allotted to three experimental groups, which were fed either an ...

Epitypification of Merismopedia tranquilla (Cyanobacteria) prompts phylogenetic reassessment of the genus and the description of two morphologically similar genera

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The genus Merismopedia is morphologically characterized by its distinctive colony arrangement yet exhibits considerable variability among species. Recent studies suggested that Merismopedia is polyphyletic, and its most likely true lineage was provisionally placed within the Microcystaceae. However, the available molecular data for most of the

BIOGAS EN EL CULTIVO DE MICROALGAS: POTENCIAL COMO FUENTE DE DIÓXIDO DE CARBONO EN FOTOBIORREACTORES

Tecnociencia, 2021
La masificación del cultivo microalgas en fotobiorreactores requiere de altos volúmenes de dióxido de carbono (CO2), para ser capturado en biomasa de microalgas; y que, aportados por medio de sales químicas, encarecen la producción. Este alto suministro

Locally adapted Arabidopsis thaliana accessions show transcriptomic plasticity in a multi‐timescale analysis of whole‐genome gene expression in a natural environment

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Natural Arabidopsis thaliana accessions showed remarkable plasticity in both life‐cycle phenology and whole‐genome gene expression patterns in in natura field experiments. Nevertheless, local adaptation in fitness‐related life‐history traits can also be detected at the whole‐genome gene expression level.

The unicellular green microalga Botryosphaerella sudetica links plant‐like light protection with an algal lifestyle

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 1, Page 372-383, July 2026.
Summary Nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ) mechanisms fine‐tune light utilisation in the photosynthetic antenna, for example, in response to excess light, to prevent photodamage. NPQ comprises distinct mechanisms, all contributing to photoprotection but acting on different time scales.
