Chlamydomonas, on the other hand, shows a typical Chlorophycean construction. The family name Chlamydomonadaceae, forms therefore, must be applied to walled remaining in the Chlorophyceae. For previous the and for members of Polyblepharidaceae now left behind in the Chlorophyceae, previous members of the Chlamydomonadaceae now placed in the Prasinophyceae, new family names have been introduced in the Danish text. In the first edition (Christensen, 1962) they were calledDunaliellaceae and Tetraselmidaceae, respectively. Since then some doubt whether has arisen (cf. Manton & Parke, 1965) as to Tetraselmis Stein (1878) and Platymonas West (1916) are taxonomically identical, as is assumed by Butcher (1959), the following Korschikoff (1938). If there is no such identity Platymonas still belongs in second Prasinophyceae, while Tetraselmis possibly does not. Therefore, the family name, the not yet formally established, has been changed to Platymonadaceae in second edition (Christensen, 1966). — Lemmermann Dictyochales T. Christensen, nom. iiov.

Pascher & Lemmermann (19x3) describe and picture two forms, one under the Crypto- phyceae, the other as an organism of uncertain affinity. The name given by Stein is applied to both without cross reference. In the case of the form of uncertain affinity, however, Sennia is cited a new name, commutata, introduced, with Stein's name only as a synonym; well the Senn is mentioned as one of the previous finders, and this as as new name makes it fairly clear that what is meantis not ‘Nephroselmis olivacea Stein', but ‘Nephroselmis olivacea sensu Senn (non Stein)'.

  • Ultrastructural Studies of Microalgae
    Ultrastructural Studies of Microalgae Alanoud Jaber Rawdhan A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Integrated) October, 2015 School of Agriculture, Food and Rural Development, Newcastle University Newcastle upon Tyne, UK Abstract Ultrastructural Studies of Microalgae The optimization of fixation protocols was undertaken for Dunaliella salina, Nannochloropsis oculata and Pseudostaurosira trainorii to investigate two different aspects of microalgal biology. The first was to evaluate the effects of the infochemical 2, 4- decadienal as a potential lipid inducer in two promising lipid-producing species, Dunaliella salina and Nannochloropsis oculata, for biofuel production. D. salina fixed well using 1% glutaraldehyde in 0.5 M cacodylate buffer prepared in F/2 medium followed by secondary fixation with 1% osmium tetroxide. N. oculata fixed better with combined osmium- glutaraldehyde prepared in sea water and sucrose. A stereological measuring technique was used to compare lipid volume fractions in D. salina cells treated with 0, 2.5, and 50 µM and N. oculata treated with 0, 1, 10, and 50 µM with the lipid volume fraction of naturally senescent (stationary) cultures. There were significant increases in the volume fractions of lipid bodies in both D. salina (0.72%) and N. oculata (3.4%) decadienal-treated cells. However, the volume fractions of lipid bodies of the stationary phase cells were 7.1% for D. salina and 28% for N. oculata. Therefore, decadienal would not be a suitable lipid inducer for a cost-effective biofuel plant. Moreover, cells treated with the highest concentration of decadienal showed signs of programmed cell death. This would affect biomass accumulation in the biofuel plant, thus further reducing cost effectiveness.

  • Structural Variation and Evolution of Chloroplast Trnas in Green Algae
    Structural variation and evolution of chloroplast tRNAs in green algae Fangbing Qi, Yajing Zhao, Ningbo Zhao, Kai Wang, Zhonghu Li and Yingjuan Wang State Key Laboratory of Biotechnology of Shannxi Province, Key Laboratory of Resource Biology and Biotech- nology in Western China (Ministry of Education), College of Life Science, Northwest University, Xi'an, China ABSTRACT As one of the important groups of the core Chlorophyta (Green algae), Chlorophyceae plays an important role in the evolution of plants. As a carrier of amino acids, tRNA plays an indispensable role in life activities. However, the structural variation of chloroplast tRNA and its evolutionary characteristics in Chlorophyta species have not been well studied. In this study, we analyzed the chloroplast genome tRNAs of 14 species in five categories in the green algae. We found that the number of chloroplasts tRNAs of Chlorophyceae is maintained between 28–32, and the length of the gene sequence ranges from 71 nt to 91 nt. There are 23–27 anticodon types of tRNAs, and some tRNAs have missing anticodons that are compensated for by other types of anticodons of that tRNA. In addition, three tRNAs were found to contain introns in the anti-codon loop of the tRNA, but the analysis scored poorly and it is presumed that these introns are not functional. After multiple sequence alignment, the 9-loop is the most conserved structural unit in the tRNA secondary structure, containing mostly U-U-C-x-A-x-U conserved sequences. The number of transitions in tRNA is higher than the number of transversions. In the replication loss analysis, it was found that green algal chloroplast tRNAs may have undergone substantial gene loss during the course of evolution.

Abstract The phylogenetic position and taxonomic status of the green alga Dunaliella viridis was investigated based on internal transcribed spacer (ITS) markers. The alga was isolated from saltern in Vinh Hao, Binh Thuan province, Vietnam. Independent phylogenetic trees of ITS1 and ITS2 sequences revealed that the alga belongs to the clade of Dunaliella viridis. The salinity for optimal growth of the alga was 2M NaCl, which was much lower than the original sampling site (4M NaCl). This tolerance to a wide range of salinity may provide distinct advantages to Dunaliella viridis over its competitors in natural environments. Further physiological and biochemical characteristics of this strain will need to be investigated in order to assess its potential for algal biomass production and other applications such as beta-carotene, carbohydrate, lipid and protein for feed, food, aquaculture and biofuels, including opening new search for other Dunaliella species. Key Words: Algae, biotechnology, carotene, Dunaliella, ITS, phylogenetic tree.
