Evaluation of Mixotrophy-Associated Gene Expression in Two Species of Polar Marine Algae
Mixotrophic flagellates can comprise significant proportions of plankton biomass in marine ecosystems. Despite the growing recognition of the importance of this ecological strategy, and the identification of major environmental factors controlling ...

Analysis of microalgae growth in residual light: A diagnostics tool for low-cost alternative cultural media [PDF]
Most microalgae grow in photoautotrophy and some benefit from mixotrophy and their growth essentially depends on the effective available light intensity.

Glucose Uptake and Its Effect on Gene Expression in Prochlorococcus [PDF]
The marine cyanobacteria Prochlorococcus have been considered photoautotrophic microorganisms, although the utilization of exogenous sugars has never been specifically addressed in them.

ABSTRACT Microalgae are increasingly recognised as powerful platforms for the sustainable production of lipids and terpenoids, with expanding applications in the food, fuel and biomanufacturing industries. In this updated review, we consolidate and critically assess the most recent advances in synthetic biology and metabolic engineering of key ...

More mixotrophy in the marine microbial mix [PDF]
Since the turn of the century, the paradigm of the marine microbial assemblage being composed primarily of photoautotrophs and chemoheterotrophs is shifting and challenging our understanding of how the microbial diversity contributes to the flow of energy, carbon, and other nutrients in the oceans. In PNAS, Munoz-Marin et al.

Microzooplankton community structure, distribution, growth, and herbivory were examined in the eastern Fram Strait and Arctic Ocean shelf affected by the Atlantic water inflow in May (during the spring bloom) and August (post-bloom, summer stratification)

Diatoms contribute as a dominant group of microalgae to approximately 20% of the global carbon fixation. In the plankton, these photosynthetic algae are exposed to a plethora of metabolites, especially when competing algae are lysed.

Genome and low-iron response of an oceanic diatom adapted to chronic iron limitation [PDF]
: BACKGROUND: Biogeochemical elemental cycling is driven by primary production of biomass via phototrophic phytoplankton growth, with 40% of marine productivity being assigned to diatoms.

Topic Modeling of Fatty Acid Studies: Evaluating Environmental Changes in Freshwater Ecosystems
ABSTRACT Fatty acids (FAs) are biochemical molecules with vital structural and metabolic functions in all living organisms. Over the last decades, FA analysis in ecological studies has garnered significant attention due to its diverse applicability, such as taxonomic support for species identification, investigations on trophic interactions, and ...
