  • Molecular Data and the Evolutionary History of Dinoflagellates by Juan Fernando Saldarriaga Echavarria Diplom, Ruprecht-Karls-Un
    Molecular data and the evolutionary history of dinoflagellates by Juan Fernando Saldarriaga Echavarria Diplom, Ruprecht-Karls-Universitat Heidelberg, 1993 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES Department of Botany We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA November 2003 © Juan Fernando Saldarriaga Echavarria, 2003 ABSTRACT New sequences of ribosomal and protein genes were combined with available morphological and paleontological data to produce a phylogenetic framework for dinoflagellates. The evolutionary history of some of the major morphological features of the group was then investigated in the light of that framework. Phylogenetic trees of dinoflagellates based on the small subunit ribosomal RNA gene (SSU) are generally poorly resolved but include many well- supported clades, and while combined analyses of SSU and LSU (large subunit ribosomal RNA) improve the support for several nodes, they are still generally unsatisfactory. Protein-gene based trees lack the degree of species representation necessary for meaningful in-group phylogenetic analyses, but do provide important insights to the phylogenetic position of dinoflagellates as a whole and on the identity of their close relatives. Molecular data agree with paleontology in suggesting an early evolutionary radiation of the group, but whereas paleontological data include only taxa with fossilizable cysts, the new data examined here establish that this radiation event included all dinokaryotic lineages, including athecate forms. Plastids were lost and replaced many times in dinoflagellates, a situation entirely unique for this group. Histones could well have been lost earlier in the lineage than previously assumed.

Dinoflagellate infections have been reported for different protistan and animal hosts. We report, for the first time, the association between a dinoflagellate parasite and a rotifer host, tentatively Synchaeta sp. (Rotifera), collected from the port of Valencia, NW Mediterranean Sea. The rotifer contained a sporangium with 100–200 thecate dinospores that develop synchronically through palintomic sporogenesis. This undescribed dinoflagellate forms a new and divergent fast-evolved lineage that branches amongthe dinokaryotic dinoflagellates. 1. Introduction form independent lineages with no evident relation to other dinoflagellates [12]. In this study, we describe a new lineage of The alveolates (or Alveolata) are a major lineage of protists an undescribed parasitic dinoflagellate that largely diverged divided into three main phyla: ciliates, apicomplexans, and from other known dinoflagellates.

Received: 3 May 2013; in revised form: 20 August 2013 / Accepted: 24 August 2013 / Published: 5 September 2013 Abstract: Some dinoflagellates possess the remarkable genetic, biochemical, and cellular machinery to produce bioluminescence. Bioluminescent species appear to be ubiquitous in surface waters globally and include numerous cosmopolitan and harmful taxa. Nevertheless, bioluminescence remains an enigmatic topic in biology, particularly with regard to the organisms’ lifestyle. In this paper, we review the literature on the cellular mechanisms, molecular evolution, diversity, and ecology of bioluminescence in dinoflagellates, highlighting significant discoveries of the last quarter of a century. We identify significant gaps in our knowledge and conflicting information and propose some important research questions

  • Recent Dinoflagellate Cysts from the Chesapeake Estuary (Maryland and Virginia, U.S.A.): Taxonomy and Ecological Preferences
    Recent dinoflagellate cysts from the Chesapeake estuary (Maryland and Virginia, U.S.A.): taxonomy and ecological preferences. Tycho Van Hauwaert Academic year 2015–2016 Master’s dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Science in Geology Promotor: Prof. Dr. S. Louwye Co-promotor: Dr. K. Mertens Tutor: P. Gurdebeke Jury: Dr. T. Verleye, Dr. E. Verleyen Picture on the cover An exceptionally dense bloom of Alexandrium monilatum was observed in lower Chesapeake Bay along the north shore of the York River between Sarah's Creek and the Perrin River on 17 August 2015. Credit: W. Vogelbein/VIMS ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First of all I want to thank my promoters, Prof. Dr. S. Louwye and Dr. K. Mertens. They introduced me into the wonderful world of dinoflagellates and the dinocysts due to the course Advanced Micropaleontology. I did not have hesitated long to choose a subject within the research unit of paleontology. Thank you for the proofreading, help with identification and many discussions. A special mention for Pieter Gurdebeke. This appreciation you can imagine as a 22-minutes standing ovation for the small talks and jokes only! If you include the assistance in the thesis, I would not dare to calculate the time of applause. I remember when we were discussing the subject during the fieldtrip to the Alps in September. We have come a long way and I am pleased with the result. Thank you very much for helping me with the preparation of slides, identification of dinocysts, some computer programs, proofreading of the different chapters and many more! When I am back from my trip to Canada, I would like to discuss it with a (small) bottle of beer.

  • Characterising Planktonic Dinoflagellate Diversity in Singapore Using DNA Metabarcoding
    Metabarcoding and Metagenomics 2: 1–14 DOI 10.3897/mbmg.2.25136 Research Article Characterising planktonic dinoflagellate diversity in Singapore using DNA metabarcoding Yue Sze1, Lilibeth N. Miranda2, Tsai Min Sin2,†, Danwei Huang1,2 1 Department of Biological Sciences, National University of Singapore, Singapore 117558, Singapore. 2 Tropical Marine Science Institute, National University of Singapore, Singapore 119227, Singapore. † Deceased. Corresponding author: Danwei Huang ([email protected]) Academic editor: Thorsten Stoeck | Received 19 March 2018 | Accepted 24 April 2018 | Published 17 May 2018 Abstract Dinoflagellates are traditionally identified morphologically using microscopy, which is a time-consuming and labour-intensive process. Hence, we explored DNA metabarcoding using high-throughput sequencing as a more efficient way to study planktonic dinoflagellate diversity in Singapore’s waters. From 29 minimally pre-sorted water samples collected at four locations in western Singapore, DNA was extracted, amplified and sequenced for a 313-bp fragment of the V4–V5 region in the 18S ribosomal RNA gene. Two sequencing runs generated 2,847,170 assembled paired-end reads, corresponding to 573,176 unique sequences. Sequenc- es were clustered at 97% similarity and analysed with stringent thresholds (≥150 bp, ≥20 reads, ≥95% match to dinoflagellates), recovering 28 dinoflagellate taxa. Dinoflagellate diversity captured includes parasitic and symbiotic groups which are difficult to identify morphologically. Richness is similar between the inner and outer West Johor Strait, but variations in community structure are apparent, likely driven by environmental differences. None of the taxa detected in a recent phytoplankton bloom along the West Johor Strait have been recovered in our samples, suggesting that background communities are distinct from bloom communities.

Las especies descritas de Karenia, Ostreopsis y Prorocentrum revisten especial interés debido a su capacidad para sintetizar fuertes toxinas que durante periodos de floraciones algales pueden ocasionar importantes daños a la fauna marina y a la salud pública. Palabras clave: Dinoflagelados, Karenia, Ostreopsis, Prorocentrum, Islas Canarias, Atlántico centro-oriental.
