First and foremost, I want to thank my amazing thesis jury: the thesis reviewers, Yonghua Li- Beisson and Stéphanie Manel, and the jury members, Christelle Breton, Natalie Simon, Stéphane Ravanel and Christiane Gallet. Thank you for accepting to review this work and for accepting to be present at my PhD defense, physically or virtually, especially in these complicated times. I look forward to our exchange; it will be an honor to discuss this project with you. Second, I want to thank the three most important people for this project, as they created it, my three PhD directors: Eric Maréchal, Eric Coissac and Jean-Gabriel Valay. You have taken me to a completely new level in science. You greatly encouraged me to participate in many scientific activities outside of experiments, which I am very grateful for, as it exposed me to so much I never thought I would love. Beyond science, all three of you have taught me very valuable life lessons which have made me that much stronger. Thank you for trusting me with this amazing project. I want to give an extra thanks to Eric Maréchal, who has given so much to this project, he was the leader it needed, the one admittedly everyone relied on, and who had a hand in every single part of this project and my scientific education during my thesis. I also want to thank the IDEX Glyco@Alps, who financed this project. Beyond that, Glyco@Alps meant much more to me, it was like a family, it made me feel surrounded and supported. I am grateful for the so many wonderful opportunities that a PhD student rarely gets anywhere else, and the chance to get to know scientists from all different backgrounds and places. I especially want to thank Ferielle, Anne and Christelle, who are at the heart of Glyco@Alps. I also want to thank all the other PhD students involved, especially Marie, Rubal, François and Juliette; your friendship has meant more to me than you know, you were there during difficult times, especially in the beginning, and you got me through, thank you so much. A warm thank you to Isabelle Domaizon and Frederic Beisson, for participating in both of my thesis committees (CSI) and for all the help and advice they have given me. I want to thank Isabelle especially, for the lake DNA samples and a very interesting collaboration on that study. I have also had help from the ISTerre platform for snow composition analysis with the wonderful Delphine Tisserand and Sarah Bureau. Thank you so much for this collaboration, I learned so much with you! I also had the pleasure of working with the MeteoFrance Centre d'Études de la Neige with Marie Dumont during sampling. I want to thank her for her advice and time, and for coming with us sampling snow algae, it was an enriching experience and collaboration. I want to thank everyone at LECA for making my time at the lab vividly memorable. The LECA is full of interesting personalities, discovered during long conversations in the break room and during runs on the trails at lunch. I thank Marc, Irene, Amélie, Céline, Fred, Monica, 2 Julien, Marius, Sylvie and Clément for their precious help and sympathy. Thank you so much to Delphine Rioux and Christian Miquel for their help on métabar experiments! I am grateful to my intern Auria Kallend, it was amazing to work on metabarcoding data with someone so efficient and that has her own ideas despite being still at the beginning of her science career. Her work and the help of Aurélie lead to Chapter 7 happening, so thanks to the both of you! Aurélie Bonin is one of my ultimate favorite people from LECA. I am so grateful for the help you gave me, I won’t forget it! I am also very grateful to François Pompanon, our lab director, for his enthusiasm and much needed help when I came to talk about projects and other matters. I have great respect for him as a labhead, a PI and a teacher. I also want to thank Stephane Reynaud, whose support was very deeply appreciated. Good luck being the new lab director! I also thank Florence, Agnès, Delphine and the rest of the admin staff who have come and gone, you make everything we do possible, thank you so much for everything! At LECA, I found some remarkable friends: Marie Usal, Joaquim Germain, Laure Denoyelle and Charlotte Her. I don't think I would've made it without you guys, you were and still are, my biggest sources of comfort and help at work and outside. You guys are my friends for life now, so I hope you are not tired of shameless Harry Potter references and non-stop nagging to go for runs with me. I want to thank everyone at LPCV. I will start with Melissa Conte, Alberto Amato and Etienne Deragon, who always got on board with my ideas and are probably the nicest people one can ever meet. You are the real MVPs of this project, experimentally. Thank you so much to Juliette Jouhet, our fearless team leader, a wonderful person; Big thanks to Dimitrios Petroutsos for help with NPQ experiments and for your kindness, encouragements and advice for my science career! Thank you to Giovanni Finazzi and for all the photosynthesis and light- stress related experiments; Thanks to Sassia, Valérie, Juliette Salvaing, Denis, Fabrice, Claude, Catherine, Mathilde for all your wonderful help on various things, thanks to Véronique for the FACS experiments, and Marcel Kuntz for the HPLC pigment experiments. And thank you to everyone else at PCV! You are all incredible people, you are a big part of the reason PCV is one of the best labs, and I will miss you all greatly. I want to give huge thanks to the PCV staff Tiffany, Sophie and Alexandre, you already know this but you are amazing, nothing would get done without you! I have made some wonderful friends here, too. Stéphanie, Nolwenn & Greg especially, but also Sebastien, Cecile, Natacha, Chrispi, Benoît… you were always there when I needed it the most and I won’t ever forget that. I want to thank the SAJF –now Jardin du Lautaret- team for all the help with the sampling campaign, especially Pascal, and with help organizing events. I also want to thank Rolland for trusting me to give plant biology classes to his students, it was a very rewarding experience! I had the amazing opportunity to go to the Flora Course at the Roscoff Marine Station, and I want to thank all the teachers and the other students there. It was an unforgettable adventure that I cherish and will never forget. I also want to thank the ‘R in Grenoble’ team, for moments of pure R coding joy, so much support and super interesting R sessions. On the same note, I want to thank Dr. Marc de Boissieu, the organizing team of the Scientific Game Jam and its participants. It was my favorite event, I met so many wonderful people there, it was a true highlight of my thesis. 3 I also want to thank all the teaching and admin staff at Université Grenoble Alpes for an incredible, rewarding experience. I especially want to thank Dr. Corinne Mercier, a true source of inspiration. She introduced me to parasitology and Toxoplasma gondii, my first love in science, which lead me to study lipids and plants. Thank you so, so much for everything you do! In the same line, I want to thank my previous supervisors during my Master's because they were also incredibly inspiring and contributed to my career so much. Dr. Yoshiki Yamaryo- Botté for her contagious love of plant lipids and her hours-long presentation preparation sessions, Dr.

Quarmby* Department of Molecular Biology and Biochemistry, Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, BC, Canada Snow algae blooms cover vast areas of summer snowfields worldwide, reducing albedo and increasing snow melt. Despite their global prevalence, little is known about the algae species that comprise these blooms. We used 18S and rbcL metabarcoding and light microscopy to characterize algae species composition in 31 snow algae blooms in the Coast Range of British Columbia, Canada. This study is the first to thoroughly document regional variation between blooms. We found all blooms were dominated by the genera Sanguina, Chloromonas, and Chlainomonas. There was considerable variation between blooms, most notably species assemblages above treeline were distinct from forested sites. In contrast to previous studies, the snow algae genus Chlainomonas was abundant and widespread in snow algae blooms. We found few taxa using traditional 18S metabarcoding, but the high taxonomic resolution of rbcL revealed Edited by: substantial diversity, including OTUs that likely represent unnamed species of snow algae.

  • RED ALGAE · RHODOPHYTA Rhodophyta Are Cosmopolitan, Found from the Artic to the Tropics
    RED ALGAE · RHODOPHYTA Rhodophyta are cosmopolitan, found from the artic to the tropics. Although they grow in both marine and fresh water, 98% of the 6,500 species of red algae are marine. Most of these species occur in the tropics and sub-tropics, though the greatest number of species is temperate. Along the California coast, the species of red algae far outnumber the species of green and brown algae. In temperate regions such as California, red algae are common in the intertidal zone. In the tropics, however, they are mostly subtidal, growing as epiphytes on seagrasses, within the crevices of rock and coral reefs, or occasionally on dead coral or sand. In some tropical waters, red algae can be found as deep as 200 meters. Because of their unique accessory pigments (phycobiliproteins), the red algae are able to harvest the blue light that reaches deeper waters. Red algae are important economically in many parts of the world. For example, in Japan, the cultivation of Pyropia is a multibillion-dollar industry, used for nori and other algal products. Rhodophyta also provide valuable “gums” or colloidal agents for industrial and food applications. Two extremely important phycocolloids are agar (and the derivative agarose) and carrageenan. The Rhodophyta are the only algae which have “pit plugs” between cells in multicellular thalli. Though their true function is debated, pit plugs are thought to provide stability to the thallus. Also, the red algae are unique in that they have no flagellated stages, which enhance reproduction in other algae. Instead, red algae has a complex life cycle, with three distinct stages.

  • The Hawaiian Freshwater Algae Biodiversity Survey
    Sherwood et al. BMC Ecology 2014, 14:28 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1472-6785/14/28 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access The Hawaiian freshwater algae biodiversity survey (2009–2014): systematic and biogeographic trends with an emphasis on the macroalgae Alison R Sherwood1*, Amy L Carlile1,2, Jessica M Neumann1, J Patrick Kociolek3, Jeffrey R Johansen4, Rex L Lowe5, Kimberly Y Conklin1 and Gernot G Presting6 Abstract Background: A remarkable range of environmental conditions is present in the Hawaiian Islands due to their gradients of elevation, rainfall and island age. Despite being well known as a location for the study of evolutionary processes and island biogeography, little is known about the composition of the non-marine algal flora of the archipelago, its degree of endemism, or affinities with other floras. We conducted a biodiversity survey of the non-marine macroalgae of the six largest main Hawaiian Islands using molecular and microscopic assessment techniques. We aimed to evaluate whether endemism or cosmopolitanism better explain freshwater algal distribution patterns, and provide a baseline data set for monitoring future biodiversity changes in the Hawaiian Islands. Results: 1,786 aquatic and terrestrial habitats and 1,407 distinct collections of non-marine macroalgae were collected from the islands of Kauai, Oahu, Molokai, Maui, Lanai and Hawaii from the years 2009–2014. Targeted habitats included streams, wet walls, high elevation bogs, taro fields, ditches and flumes, lakes/reservoirs, cave walls and terrestrial areas. Sites that lacked freshwater macroalgae were typically terrestrial or wet wall habitats that were sampled for diatoms and other microalgae. Approximately 50% of the identifications were of green algae, with lesser proportions of diatoms, red algae, cyanobacteria, xanthophytes and euglenoids.

    Red Algae (Bangia atropurpurea) Ecological Risk Screening Summary U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, February 2014 Revised, March 2016, September 2017, October 2017 Web Version, 6/25/2018 1 Native Range and Status in the United States Native Range From NOAA and USGS (2016): “Bangia atropurpurea has a widespread amphi-Atlantic range, which includes the Atlantic coast of North America […]” Status in the United States From Mills et al. (1991): “This filamentous red alga native to the Atlantic Coast was observed in Lake Erie in 1964 (Lin and Blum 1977). After this sighting, records for Lake Ontario (Damann 1979), Lake Michigan (Weik 1977), Lake Simcoe (Jackson 1985) and Lake Huron (Sheath 1987) were reported. It has become a major species of the littoral flora of these lakes, generally occupying the littoral zone with Cladophora and Ulothrix (Blum 1982). Earliest records of this algae in the basin, however, go back to the 1940s when Smith and Moyle (1944) found the alga in Lake Superior tributaries. Matthews (1932) found the alga in Quaker Run in the Allegheny drainage basin. Smith and 1 Moyle’s records must have not resulted in spreading populations since the alga was not known in Lake Superior as of 1987. Kishler and Taft (1970) were the most recent workers to refer to the records of Smith and Moyle (1944) and Matthews (1932).” From NOAA and USGS (2016): “Established where recorded except in Lake Superior. The distribution in Lake Simcoe is limited (Jackson 1985).” From Kipp et al. (2017): “Bangia atropurpurea was first recorded from Lake Erie in 1964. During the 1960s–1980s, it was recorded from Lake Huron, Lake Michigan, Lake Ontario, and Lake Simcoe (part of the Lake Ontario drainage).

Received: 30 January 2019; Accepted: 17 February 2019; Published: 18 February 2019 Abstract: Xylans with a variety of structures have been characterised in green algae, including chlorophytes (Chlorophyta) and charophytes (in the Streptophyta), and red algae (Rhodophyta). Substituted 1,4-β-D-xylans, similar to those in land plants (embryophytes), occur in the cell wall matrix of advanced orders of charophyte green algae. Small proportions of 1,4-β-D-xylans have also been found in the cell walls of some chlorophyte green algae and red algae but have not been well characterised. 1,3-β-D-Xylans occur as triple helices in microfibrils in the cell walls of chlorophyte algae in the order Bryopsidales and of red algae in the order Bangiales. 1,3;1,4-β-D-Xylans occur in the cell wall matrix of red algae in the orders Palmariales and Nemaliales. In the angiosperm Arabidopsis thaliana, the gene IRX10 encodes a xylan 1,4-β-D-xylosyltranferase (xylan synthase), and, when heterologously expressed, this protein catalysed the production of the backbone of 1,4-β-D-xylans.

  • Evolution and Comparative Morphology of the Euglenophyte
    EVOLUTION AND COMPARATIVE MORPHOLOGY OF THE EUGLENOPHYTE PLASTID by PATRICK JERRY PAUL BROWN (Under the Direction of Mark A. Farmer) ABSTRACT My doctoral research centered on understanding the evolution of the euglenophyte protists, with special attention paid to their plastids. The euglenophytes are a widely distributed group of euglenid protists that have acquired a chloroplast via secondary symbiogenesis. The goals of my research were to 1) test the efficacy of plastid morphological and ultrastructural characters in phylogenetic analysis; 2) understand the process of plastid development and partitioning in the euglenophytes; 3) to use a plastid- encoded protein gene to determine a euglenophyte phylogeny; and 4) to perform a multi- gene analysis to uncover clues about the origins of the euglenophyte plastid. My work began with an alpha-taxonomic study that redefined the rare euglenophyte Euglena rustica. This work not only validly circumscribed the species, but also noted novel features of its habitat, cyclic migration habits, and cellular biology. This was followed by a study of plastid morphology and development in a number of diverse euglenophytes. The results of this study showed that the plastids of euglenophytes undergo drastic changes in morphology and ultrastructure over the course of a single cell division cycle. I concluded that there are four main classes of plastid development and partitioning in the euglenophytes, and that the class a given species will use is dependant on its interphase plastid morphology and the rigidity of the cell. The discovery of the class IV partitioning strategy in which cells with only one or very few plastids fragment their plastids prior to cell division was very significant.
