Effect of Glycerol Concentration and Light Intensity on Growth and Biochemical Composition of Arthrospira (Spirulina) Platensis: A Study in Semi-Continuous Mode with Non-Aseptic Conditions

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2019
In this study, Arthrospira platensis was grown in the presence of different glycerol concentrations (0.5−9 g/L) under three light intensities (5, 10 and 15 Klux) in semi-continuous mode and under non-axenic conditions.

Pronounced Uptake and Metabolism of Organic Substrates by Diatoms Revealed by Pulse-Labeling Metabolomics

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
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.

Comparative Neuroanatomy of Hydrothermal Vent Shrimps: Ecological Differentiation Among Four Alvinocaridid Species

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 534, Issue 8, August 2026.
Hydrothermal vent shrimps share a conserved brain architecture with enlarged mushroom bodies and terminal medullae, shaped by similar environmental pressures. Despite this similarity, some anatomical features near the brain vary between species, suggesting that some ecological factors, such as microhabitat and trophic strategies, also influence nervous

A guide to methods for estimating phago-mixotrophy in nanophytoplankton

open access: yes, 2019
Growing attention to phytoplankton mixotrophy as a trophic strategy has led to significant revisions of traditional pelagic food web models and ecosystem functioning. Although some empirical estimates of mixotrophy do exist, a much broader set of in situ

Importance of allelopathy as peudo-mixotrophy for the dynamics and diversity of phytoplankton [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Understanding the dynamics and diversity of marine phytoplankton is essential for predicting oceanic primary production, oxygen generation and carbon sequestration.

Morphological and trophic coupling distinguishes coral clades along a light gradient

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 8, August 2026.
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.

Enhancing Biomass Production of Chlorella vulgaris in Anaerobically Digested Swine Wastewater Using Carbon Supplementation and Simultaneous Lipid Production

open access: yesApplied Sciences
This study investigated anaerobically digested swine wastewater (ADSW) as a nutrient source for Chlorella vulgaris FACHB-8 cultivation under mixotrophic conditions with carbon supplementation. The microalgal strain was grown in ADSW supplemented with six

The genetic diversity of Mesodinium and associated cryptophytes

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Ciliates from the genus Mesodinium are globally distributed in marine and freshwater ecosystems and may possess either heterotrophic or mixotrophic nutritional modes. Members of the M.

Mixotrophy drives niche expansion of verrucomicrobial methanotrophs [PDF]

open access: yesThe ISME Journal, 2017
Abstract Aerobic methanotrophic bacteria have evolved a specialist lifestyle dependent on consumption of methane and other short-chain carbon compounds. However, their apparent substrate specialism runs contrary to the high relative abundance of these microorganisms in dynamic environments, where the availability of methane and oxygen ...

More mixotrophy in the marine microbial mix [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2013
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.
