Insights into global planktonic diatom diversity: Comparisons between phylogenetically meaningful units that account for time Teofil Nakov, Jeremy M. Beaulieu, and Andrew J. Alverson Department of Biological Sciences University of Arkansas 1 University of Arkansas, SCEN 601 Fayetteville, AR 72701 Abstract Metabarcoding has offered unprecedented insights into microbial diversity. In many studies, short DNA sequences are binned into consecutively higher Linnaean ranks, and ranked groups (e.g., genera) are the units of biodiver- sity analyses. These analyses assume that Linnaean ranks are biologically meaningful and that identically ranked groups are comparable. We used a meta-barcode dataset for marine planktonic diatoms to illustrate the limits of this approach. We found that the 20 most abundant marine planktonic diatom genera ranged in age from 4 to 134 million years, indicating the non- equivalence of genera because some had more time to diversify than others. Still, species richness was only weakly correlated with genus age, highlighting variation in rates of speciation and/or extinction. Taxonomic classifications often do not reflect phylogeny, so genus-level analyses can include phylogenet- ically nested genera, further confounding rank-based analyses. These results underscore the indispensable role of phylogeny in understanding patterns of microbial diversity.

Impacts of Microbial Chemical Interactions on Marine Plankton Physiology
AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Eric R. Moore for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Microbiology presented on December 12, 2019. Title: Impacts of Microbial Chemical Interactions on Marine Plankton Physiology Abstract approved: ______________________________________________________ Kimberly H. Halsey The bioavailability of chemical compounds in the marine environment fundamentally influences the growth and physiology of microorganisms. Organic and inorganic chemicals that are produced by some marine plankton can be consumed by other plankton for energy production, growth, or to initiate essential physiological processes. Cultures of the diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana, a model phytoplankton species, and Pelagibacter ubique, the most abundant heterotrophic bacteria in the ocean, were used to study how microbial chemical interactions influence the physiology of these two groups of co-occurring marine plankton that have substantial roles in the carbon cycle. Specifically, the production and consumption of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were studied in monocultures and co-cultures of these plankton. In co-culture, Pelagibacter benefited from a wide variety of VOCs produced by T. pseudonana, and heterotrophic consumption of VOCs taxed carbon fixation in the diatom by promoting the loss of diffusible VOCs from the primary producer. In this interaction, VOCs were shown to be a large fraction (ca. 20%) of fixed carbon that is transferred to heterotrophic bacteria, suggesting that VOC cycling by phytoplankton and bacteria is a significant component of the global carbon cycle. Acetone and isoprene, VOCs with important roles in atmospheric processes, were two of the VOCs utilized by Pelagibacter in co-culture. Pelagibacter metabolized acetone and isoprene at rates sufficient to explain discrepancies in measured fluxes of these compounds between the ocean and atmosphere, demonstrating that heterotrophic bacteria have significant control over the emission of VOCs from the ocean. -

THALASSIOSIRA COMMUNITY COMPOSITION AND DIVERSITY IN NARRAGANSETT BAY BY SARAH FLICKINGER A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE IN OCEANOGRAPHY UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2016 MASTER OF SCIENCE THESIS OF SARAH FLICKINGER APPROVED: Thesis Committee: Major Professor Tatiana Rynearson Candace Oviatt Bethany Jenkins Nasser H. Zawia DEAN OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2016 ABSTRACT Diatoms contribute 40-45% of marine primary production. Understanding the contributions of individual species to diatom communities is important in light of warming ocean waters and changing food webs. Here, the diatom genus Thalassiosira, which exhibits irregular pulses in abundance in Narragansett Bay, is examined using data from the Narragansett Bay Long Term Phytoplankton Time Series. High-throughput sequencing (HTS) at the highly-variable V4 region of the 18S ribosomal gene identified fourteen Thalassiosira taxa in monthly samples over a six- year time period (December 2008-December 2014), seven of which had not previously been identified in this time series. -

Here, a combination of microscopy and high-through- put DNA sequencing was used to examine morphologi- cally cryptic and pseudo-cryptic species in the diatom genus Skeletonema from the Long-Term Plankton Time Series in Narragansett Bay (NBay), where Skele- tonema is ecologically important, comprising up to 99% of microplankton cells in surface waters. The 28S rDNA from mock phytoplankton communities compris- ing known species was amplified and sequenced using newly developed Skeletonema-specific primers. The relative abundances of species in the sequence data did not match expected abundances, suggesting that 28S copy number can vary greatly, even among closely related diatom species. The 28S rDNA was also ampli- fied from 75 field samples collected from 2008 to 2013.

Limnology and Oceanography published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc. on behalf of Association for the Sciences of Limnology and Oceanography. doi: 10.1002/lno.11430 Variability approaching the thermal limits can drive diatom community dynamics Stephanie I. Anderson , Tatiana A. Rynearson * Graduate School of Oceanography, University of Rhode Island, Narragansett, Rhode Island Abstract Organismal distributions are largely mediated by temperature, suggesting thermal trait variability plays a key role in defining species’ niches. We employed a trait-based approach to better understand how inter- and intra- specific thermal trait variability could explain diatom community dynamics using 24 strains from 5 species in the diatom genus Skeletonema, isolated from Narragansett Bay (NBay), where this genus can comprise up to 99% of the microplankton. Strain-specific thermal reaction norms were generated using growth rates obtained at temperatures ranging from −2Cto36C. Comparison of thermal reaction norms revealed inter- and intraspe- cific similarities in the thermal optima, but significant differences approaching the thermal limits. Cellular ele- mental composition was determined for two thermally differentiated species and again, the most variation occurred approaching the thermal limits. To determine the potential impact of interspecific variability on com- munity composition, a species succession model was formulated utilizing each species’ empirically determined thermal reaction norm and historical temperature data from NBay. -

China Summary – Skeletonema costatum like cells are recorded globally and often generate ahuge biomass when blooming. In the present study we performed ataxonomic and geographic survey of the species diversity in Skeletonema along the Chinese coastline. We concentrated our efforts on Xiamen Harbour, where we followed the annual cycle of the generic diversity by collecting 51 water samples from 2006 to 2010. Atotal of 687 strains of Skeletonema were established and they were identified as S. ardens, S. costatum, S. dohrnii, S. grevillei, S. menzelii,and S. tropicum. S. dohrnii is awinter-spring species, whereas other species tend to appear in summer and autumn. S. costatum is the single species present throughout the year. To assess how the species overcome the period in which they are not detectable in the water column we also sampled the surface sediments and either isolated resting stages and incubated them into cultures, or we generated monoclonal strains by incubating the sediment and isolated whatever emerged from it. The above six species except S. grevillei, and S. pseudocostatum as well, were detected this way, implying that the species produce resting stages. -

Distance and Character-Based Evaluation of the V4 Region of the 18S Rrna Gene for the Identification of Diatoms (Bacillariophyceae)
Distance and Character-Based Evaluation of the V4 Region of the 18S rRNA Gene for the Identification of Diatoms (Bacillariophyceae) Ian A. Luddington1*, Irena Kaczmarska1, Connie Lovejoy2 1 Department of Biology, Mount Allison University, Sackville, Canada, 2 Que´bec-Oce´an, De´partement de Biologie and Institut de Biologie Inte´grative et des Syste`mes, Universite´ Laval, Que´bec, Canada Abstract DNA barcoding is a molecular tool that exploits a unique DNA sequence of a standardized gene or non-coding region for the species identification of unknown individuals. The investigation into a suitable barcode for diatoms is ongoing and there are several promising candidates including mitochondrial, plastidial and nuclear markers. We analyzed 272 sequences from 76 diatoms species in the orders Thalassiosirales, Lithodesmiales and Cymatosirales, using distance and character based approaches, to assess the applicability of a DNA barcode based on the hypervariable V4 region of the nuclear 18S rRNA gene. We show that the proposed V4 barcode separated ca. 97% of all centric diatom taxa tested using a threshold p- distance of 0.02 and that many problem pairs were further separated using a character based approach. The reliability of amplification, extensive reference library and variability seen in the V4 region make it the most promising candidate to date for a barcode marker for diatoms particularly when combined with DNA character analysis.
