, 2022 In 2050, the expected food demand is twice as high as it is now, due to the growing world population. As a result, there seems to be more demand for high-quality proteins such as seafood. However, along with aquatic animal production, the need for aquaculture feed is increasing. On the other hand, consumers seem to be concerned about sustainability and

Production of Rhodomonas sp. at pilot scale under sunlight conditions [PDF]
Algal Research, 2020 Abstract Rhodomonas sp., is an important microalga for aquaculture feed applications and gained increased research interest over the past few years. While efforts to optimise cultivation of the strain have been studied in detail under laboratory conditions, Rhodomonas sp.

Enrichment on polyunsaturated fatty acids by Rhodomonas salina (Cryptophyta) following ethyl methane sulphonate induced random mutagenesis [PDF]
AquaTechnica, 2020 A protocol through mutagenesis with ethyl methane sulphonate and selection with herbicide Quizalofop was developed for Rhodomonas salina. Mutants showing resistance to Quizalofop had enriched lipid and PUFAs content.

Rhodomonas PE545 fluorescence is increased by glycerol [PDF]
ScienceAsia, 2021 Phycobilins are photosynthetic pigments found in three ecologically important groups of algae: cyanobacte- ria, red algae, and cryptophytes. These compounds are covalently attached to proteins, which can be technically difficult to analyze compared with ...

Non-photochemical quenching in cryptophyte alga Rhodomonas salina is located in chlorophyll a/c antennae. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Photosynthesis uses light as a source of energy but its excess can result in production of harmful oxygen radicals. To avoid any resulting damage, phototrophic organisms can employ a process known as non-photochemical quenching (NPQ), where excess light ...

Local Adaptation and Osmoregulatory Mechanisms of the Copepod Acartia tonsa Under Low Salinity Stress. [PDF]
Mol EcolABSTRACT Salinity—an essential factor shaping marine species distributions—is rapidly shifting due to global change, yet the mechanisms of salinity tolerance and adaptation remain poorly understood. We investigated local adaptation in the calanoid copepod Acartia tonsa, a broadly distributed marine species that thrives in the brackish Baltic Sea. Using

Optimization of Rhodomonas sp. under continuous cultivation for industrial applications in aquaculture [PDF]
Algal Research, 2020 Abstract The microalgae species Rhodomonas sp. is commonly used in aquaculture for its high nutritional value due to the eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) content. Understanding the effect of cultivation parameters on biomass production rate and composition is presently limited, however essential in further commercialization ...

Small-scale experiments aimed at optimization of large-scale production of the microalga Rhodomonas salina [PDF]
Journal of Applied Phycology, 2018 The cryptophyte Rhodomonas is an important feed item for live feed organisms in aquaculture and although large-scale cultivation of Rhodomonas in photobioreactors (PBRs) is feasible, the production needs to be optimized through further studies of specific factors.
