Ammonia is widely used in culture media typical of laboratory growth. Recent reports that this species can grow on wastes promote the concept that G. maxima might have biotechnological utility. Accordingly, there is a need to know the range of pH levels that can support G. maxima growth in a given nitrogen source. Here, we examined the combined effect of pH and nitrate/ammonium source on the growth and long-term response of the photochemical process to a pH gradient in different G. maxima strains. All were able to use differing nitrogen sources, despite both the growth rate and photochemical activity were significantly affected by the combination with the pH.

Although there is still uncertainty about when precisely and how this came about, the gradual oxygenation of the Proterozoic oceans and atmosphere opened the path for aerobic organisms and ultimately eukaryotic cells to evolve. There is a general consensus that photosynthesis was acquired by eukaryotes through endosymbiosis, resulting in the enslavement of a cyanobacterium to become a plastid. Here, we give an update of the current understanding of the primary endosymbiotic event that gave rise to the Archaeplastida. In addition, we provide an overview of the diversity in the Rhodophyta, Glaucophyta and the Viridiplantae (excluding the Embryophyta) and highlight how genomic data are enabling us to understand the relationships and characteristics of algae emerging from this primary endosymbiotic event.

  • The Ecology and Glycobiology of Prymnesium Parvum

In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. Page | 1 Abstract Prymnesium parvum is a toxin-producing haptophyte that causes harmful algal blooms (HABs) globally, leading to large scale fish kills that have severe ecological and economic implications. A HAB on the Norfolk Broads, U.K, in 2015 caused the deaths of thousands of fish. Using optical microscopy and 16S rRNA gene sequencing of water samples, P. parvum was shown to dominate the microbial community during the fish-kill. Using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), the ladder-frame polyether prymnesin-B1 was detected in natural water samples for the first time. Furthermore, prymnesin-B1 was detected in the gill tissue of a deceased pike (Exos lucius) taken from the site of the bloom; clearing up literature doubt on the biologically relevant toxins and their targets. Using microscopy, natural P. parvum populations from Hickling Broad were shown to be infected by a virus during the fish-kill. A new species of lytic virus that infects P. parvum was subsequently isolated, Prymnesium parvum DNA virus (PpDNAV-BW1).

  • Comparison of Galdieria Growth and Photosynthetic
    Carbone et al. AMB Expr (2020) 10:170 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13568-020-01110-7 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Open Access Comparison of Galdieria growth and photosynthetic activity in diferent culture systems Dora Allegra Carbone1*, Giuseppe Olivieri2,3, Antonino Pollio4 and Michael Melkonian5,6 Abstract In the last years, the acidothermophilic red microalga Galdieria sulphuraria has been increasingly studied for industrial applications such as wastewater treatment, recovery of rare earth elements, production of phycobilins. However, even now it is not possible an industrial cultivation of this organism because biotechnological research on G. sulphuraria and allied species is relatively recent and fragmented. Having in mind a possible scale-up for commercial applications, we have compared the growth and photosynthetic performance of G. sulphuraria in four suspended systems (Inclined bubble column, Decanter Laboratory Flask, Tubular Bioreactor, Ultra-fat plate bioreactor) and one immobilized system (Twin Layer Sytem). The results showed that G. sulphuraria had the highest growth, productivity and photosynthetic performance, when grown on the immobilized system, which also ofers some economics advantages.

Abstract: The extremophilic unicellular red microalga Galdieria sulphuraria (Cyanidiophyceae) is able to grow autotrophically, or mixo- and heterotrophically with 1% glycerol as a carbon source. The alga divides by multiple fission into more than two cells within one cell cycle. The optimal conditions of − − ◦ light, temperature and pH (500 µmol photons m 2 s 1, 40 C, and pH 3; respectively) for the strain Galdieria sulphuraria (Galdieri) Merola 002 were determined as a basis for synchronization experiments. Citation: Náhlík, V.; Zachleder, V.; For synchronization, the specific light/dark cycle, 16/8 h was identified as the precondition for Cížková,ˇ M.; Bišová, K.; Singh, A.; investigating the cell cycle.
