Ecotype diversity in the marine picoeukaryote Ostreococcus (Chlorophyta, Prasinophyceae)

Environmental Microbiology, 2005
Summary The importance of the cyanobacteria Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus in marine ecosystems in terms of abundance and primary production can be partially explained by ecotypic differentiation. Despite the dominance of eukaryotes

Genetic diversity of picoeukaryotes in eight lakes differing in trophic status

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 2011
The genetic diversity of picoeukaryotes (0.2–5.0 µm) was investigated in 8 lakes differing in trophic status in Nanjing, China. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) and cloning and sequencing of 18S rRNA genes were applied to analyze the picoeukaryotic communities.

Significant Effects of Associated Microorganisms on the Community of Photosynthetic Picoeukaryotes

Microbial Ecology, 2022
Photosynthetic picoeukaryotes (PPEs) form associations with other microorganisms. However, whether and how the associated microbes affect PPE communities remain unknown. We used flow cytometric cell sorting combined with parallel high-throughput sequencing of the 18S and 16S rRNA genes to simultaneously investigate PPEs and their associated microbial ...

Basin‐scale distribution patterns of photosynthetic picoeukaryotes along an Atlantic Meridional Transect

Environmental Microbiology, 2011
Summary Photosynthetic picoeukaryotes (PPEs) of a size < 3 µm play a crucial role in oceanic primary production. However, little is known of the structure of the PPE community over large spatial scales. Here, we investigated the distribution of various PPE classes along an Atlantic Meridional Transect sampled in boreal autumn 2004 ...

Picoplankton dynamics and picoeukaryote diversity in a hyper-eutrophic subtropical lagoon

Journal of Environmental Science and Health, Part A, 2013
Picoplankton (cells with a diameter of 0.2-3.0 μm) is the dominant contributor to both primary production and biomass in the ocean. Most of the previous studies on picoplankton have been conducted in the oligotrophic open sea with few in the eutrophic area.

Characterization of photosynthetic picoeukaryotes from the Southern Adriatic Pit

2016
Photosynthetic picoeukaryotes with cell size less than 3 μm are widely distributed in the world oceans and play critical role in oceanic primary production. In recent years, the composition and abundance of marine picoeukaryotes have been investigated using several approaches: morphological (LM, TEM) and chemical studies, flow-cytometry studies ...

Glycerolipidome peculiarities of the smallest green picoeukaryote Ostreococcus tauri

2017
The pico-alga Ostreococcus tauri is a minimal photosynthetic eukaryote that has been implemented as model system. O. tauri is known to efficiently produce docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). We provide a comprehensive study of the glycerolipidome of O.tauri and validate this species as model for related picoeukaryotes.
