Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.ABSTRACT Microalgal biomass has emerged as a valuable resource in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), due to its natural capacity to recover nutrients. In addition, microalgae are potential source of fish‐feed in the aquaculture industry. However, its application in RAS needs careful consideration, as microalgae can interact with geosmin, a common

Functional characterization of NRT1/PTR FAMILY transporters: looking for a needle in a haystack
New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 3, Page 1124-1144, February 2026.Summary NRT1/PTR FAMILY (NPF) transporters play crucial roles in plant physiology and development due to their involvement in nitrogen nutrition and their ability to transport multiple signaling molecules and metabolites. Whereas most eukaryotic and prokaryotic NPF orthologs are peptide transporters, most flowering plant NPF transport other substrates ...

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023 The diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum is regarded as a prospective “cell factory” for the high-value products fucoxanthin and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). However, contamination with grazing protozoa is a significant barrier to its commercial cultivation.

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 1785-1799, February 2026.Summary Oxygenic photosynthesis is driven by visible light in most photosynthetic organisms, with exceptions in a few cyanobacteria and microalgae species, which can extend the light absorption to far‐red (FR) wavelengths, by synthesizing new pigments or shifting the antennae absorption range beyond 700 nm.

Nutrient experiment using Phaeodactylum tricornutum as an assay organism
Brazilian Journal of Oceanography, 1976 The growth of Phaeodactylum tricornutum, cultured at 7,000 lux and 25º C, in twelve-day experiments using enriched water collected at the surface and 50.0 m depth from coastal waters offshore of Ubatuba area, was carried out. Different water enrichements
