OVERLOOKED HETEROPOLARITY IN SURIRELLA CF. FASTUOSA (BACILLARIOPHYTA) AND RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN VALVE MORPHOGENESIS AND AUXOSPORE DEVELOPMENT

Surirella cf. fastuosa is an apparently isopolar elliptic marine raphid diatom. We observed cells before and after sexual reproduction in monoclonal cultures using light and scanning electron microscopy (LM and SEM). After sexual reproduction cells were approximately twice as large as before, in valve length and width. The stria and infundibula densities were stable during the life cycle. Subtle morphological differences were detectable between the two poles of the frustule. One pole (pole A) was characterized by endings of the external raphe fissure that turned toward the valve face, continuity of the domed wall of the raphe canal externally, an elliptic chamber visible internally, a shallow nick in the interior of the valvocopula. The other pole (pole B) was with the following: straight endings of the external raphe fissures, a dent in the domed wall of the raphe canal externally, a double chamber internally, presence of the open ends of the valvocopula nearby, a deep nick in the valvocopula. Furthermore, at pole A virgae developed at an early stage in morphogenesis, whereas at pole B they were not formed. In the auxospores, pole A was situated beneath the primary transverse perizonial band. Pole A is suggested to be homologous with the head pole in heteropolar Surirella and is the “protopole” likely equivalent to the central nodule in naviculoid taxa. Pole B is homologous with the foot pole in heteropolar Surirella and is the “synaptic pole” formed by fusion of components equivalent to both poles of naviculoid taxa.

FUNCTIONAL VALVE MORPHOLOGY IN SOME SURIRELLA SPECIES (BACILLARIOPHYCEAE) AND A COMPARISON WITH THE NAVICULACEAE1

On the basis of results of stratigraphic and comparative morphological studies on the diatom frustule, the Surirellaceae is generally assumed to be the endpoint of the evolution of the Pennales. The present study shows that a line of development, based on frustule construction and which parallels the search for optimum design of comparable elements in engineering, can be traced from the Naviculaceae to the Surirellaceae. In both cases lightweight construction is achieved through economy of material and energy expenditure. This leads to structural stability and in the case of the diatom valve, a larger area for metabolic exchange. From the functional-morphological point of view, three construction principles can be distinguished in the genus Surirella: 1. valves with pennate costal framework, raphe keels and fibulae (Surirella gemma group); 2. frustules where all supporting elements are in the form of corrugations, with raphe keel and fibulae (Pinnatae, Fastuosae, Surirella striatula group); and 3. as in 2, but with true alae with alar canals (Robustae) instead of keels with fibulae.
