Exposing the inoculum of monocellular green algae Dunaliella tertiolecta and Tetraselmis viridis to 50 Hz electromagnetic field for several hours resulted in a reduced growth rate in both cultures. It was ascertained that heavy water inhibited growth of algae Dunaliella tertiolecta. The light water activated growth of the culture in the exponential phase only. 相似文献

The principal deviation between parameters of spectral characteristics of surface structures and whole cells of unicellular
algae Dunaliella tertiolecta and Tetraselmis viridis before and after influence of electromagnetic field (EMF) has been determined. It was found that the dichroic ratio can characterize
the degree of adaptation of the culture to changing conditions of the environment. 相似文献

Dunaliella tertiolecta (marine) and D. viridis (halophilic) were each trained by serial transfer to growth at salt concentrations previously regarded as the other's domain. D. viridis then had a salt optimum at 1.0–1.5 M sodium chloride whereas that for D. tertiolecta was less than 0–2 M. Nevertheless D. tertiolecta grew faster than the halophil at all salt concentrations up to 3.5 M, the highest at which they were compared.Both species accumulate glycerol, which is necessary for growth at elevated salinities and which responds in its content to water activity (a
w
) rather than specifically to salt concentration. Variation in glycerol content is a metabolic process which occurs in the dark from accumulated starch as well as photosynthetically. Regulation of glycerol content by a
w
does not require protein synthesis. The NADP-specific glycerol dehydrogenase of each of the algae is likely to be directly involved in the regulation of glycerol content. Kinetic studies, together with those described in an earlier publication, show that the enzyme has regulatory properties, and that both glycerol and dihydroxyacetone act as effectors as well as reactants. A mechanism of the reaction is tentatively proposed. 相似文献

When the marine Chlorophycean flagellate Dunaliella tertiolecta Butcher was grown with short photoperiods of bright light, the use of ammonia rather than nitrate as a nitrogen source led to a 30 % reduction of the doubling time of cell matter. The cell cycle (onset of light to completion of cell division) was shortened by about 10% only. Ammonia-grown cells possessed a greater capacity for photosynthetic oxygen evolution at light saturation than did nitrate-grown cells; their content of ribulosediphosphate carboxylase was likewise greater. The faster growth of Dunaliella tertiolecta with ammonia may be partly a consequence of a general increase in net protein synthesis resulting in a greater content of photosynthetic enzymes. 相似文献

Summary The marine microalgaeTetraselmis suecica, Isochrysis galbana, Dunaliella tertiolecta andChlorella stigmatophora are good biological sources of single cell protein (SCP). Protein content accounts for 39.12%–54.20% of the dry matter,D. tertiolecta having the highest. Lysine values are between 3.67 and 4.52 g/100 g of protein, and thus are higher than those for freshwater species. The total nucleic acid content is less than 7% of the dry matter; this value is definitely lower than that for yeasts or bacteria, commonly used as SCP sources. Amino acid profiles of the four species are very similar and comparable to the FAO reference protein, buth with a low content of methionine and cystine and a high content of lysine. The MEAA indices are between 81 and 84.98, without significant differences among the four species. Marine microalgae can be used as a potential SCP source. 相似文献

Decreases in salinity (<10%) increased the growth rates ofPhaeodactylum tricornutum and Dunaliella tertiolecta. Increasinglevels of cadmium (150 ppm (mg 11)) reduced thegrowth rates of both species. 100 ppm cadmium was lethal toD. tertiolecta but not to P. tricornutum. Lead (1 4 ppm)initially increased the growth rate of D. tertiolecta but thencaused all but the 1 ppm culture to die. Lead (14 ppm)caused a decrease in growth rate of P. tricornutum. After exposureto 1 ppm cadmium, cultures of D. tertiolecta showed an increasedtolerance to levels of cadmium, and a changed response to levelsof lead. Exposure of P. tricornutum to either cadmium or lead,or exposure of D. tertiolecta to lead caused no change in responseto either metal. 相似文献

The occurrence of jasmonic acid and related compounds in Dunaliella species was investigated using gas-liquid chromatography/mass spectroscopy (GCY MS). Jasmonic acid was identified in the ethyl acetate soluble-acidic fraction of Dunaliella tertiolecta and Dunaliella salina (Dunal) Teodoresco, The concentration of jasmonic acid in D. salina. which is extremely halophilic, was much higher than that in D. tertiolecta Butcher, These results indicate that jasmonic acid might play an important role in salt-tolerance in Dunaliella. 相似文献

Dunaliella tertiolecta, a euryhaline marine flagel-late grows over a wide salinity range and exhibits both a minimum sodium and osmotic requirement for growth. Chlamydomonas pulsatilla, a flagellate isolated from a supralittoral rockpool, grows over a more narrow salinity range, and exhibits no sodium or minimum osmotic requirement for growth. The uptake of methylamine by C. pulsatilla is not markedly influenced by the presence of sodium. Phosphate uptake by this flagellate, while showing no absolute dependence on the presence of sodium, is strongly stimulated by low sodium concentrations. Dunaliella tertiolecta, on the other hand, shows absolute requirements for sodium for both methylamine and phosphate uptake. The concentrations of sodium needed for nutrient uptake agree well with those needed for growth when the osmotic requirement for growth of this flagellate is satisfied by mannitol.Abbreviations ASW

The nutritive value of the marine microalgaeTetraselmis suecica, Isochrysis galbana, Dunaliella tertiolecta andChlorella stigmatophora was studied in diets given to rats. Biological assays were carried out in order to determine the Protein Efficiency Ratio (PER) and the Food Conversion Efficiency (FCE). Each dried microalga was fed to weaning Wistar albino rats as the sole protein source at a protein level of 12%. Control rats were given diets containing 12 % casein. Food consumption was similar in all groups. PER values obtained were 1.14 withT. suecica diet, 1.13 withI. galbana diet, 2.07 withD. tertiolecta diet and 1.13 withC. stigmatophora diet (casein, 2.50). FCE values followed a similar pattern. The data showed that the marine microalgaD. tertiolecta is a source of protein of good quality. Its PER is quite high, compared to vegetable and cereal proteins, and compares favourably with other microbial protein sources, such as yeasts or different freshwater microalgae. Haematological tests showed no significant differences among the groups in haemoglobin levels, red and white blood cell counts, differential count and mean corpuscular volume. Different blood parameters were also determined and a significant decrease in triglycerides levels appeared with all the microalgal diets, whereas a significant decrease in cholesterol appeared inD. tertiolecta andC. stigmatophora diets. 相似文献

Redox conversions of P700, the primary donor of photosystem I (PSI), were investigated in cells of a halophytic alga Tetraselmis viridis Rouch. under irradiation with white light pulses that excite both photosystems of the chloroplast and with far-red light initiating photochemical reactions in PSI only. The P700+ dark reduction after irradiation with 50-ms pulse of white light comprised three kinetic components. The half-decay times and relative contributions of the fast, middle, and slow components were 38 ms (49%), 295 ms (26%), and 1690 ms (23%), respectively. The treatment with diuron, known to block electron transport between the photosystems, eliminated the middle exponential term having the half-decay time of 295 ms. After irradiation with far-red light, the kinetics of P700+ dark reduction comprised only two components with half-deacy times of 980 ms (72%) and 78 ms (31%). The component with a decay halftime of about 100 ms was fully inhibited after treating the cells with antimycin A, a specific inhibitor of ferredoxin-dependent cyclic electron flow around PSI. In addition, this kinetic component was strongly suppressed by methyl viologen known to inhibit this alternative pathway of electron transport. Both aforementioned reagents had no effect on the slow component of P700+ reduction; this component remained monophasic. Unlike higher plant chloroplasts, the chloroplasts of Tetraselmis viridis contained no stacked grana. Based on inhibitor analysis and electron microscopy data, it was concluded that the slow component of P700+ reduction in the cells of halophytic microalga reflects the electron donation to PSI from reductants localized in the chloroplast stroma. The monophasic kinetics of this process in the halophytic microalga, compared to the biphasic kinetic pattern in higher plants, is related to the lack of stacked grana in Tetraselmis viridis cells. 相似文献

The amounts of extracellular dissolved organic phosphorus (DOP) produced by 8 species of marine planktonic algae under various conditions of light, salinity, and nutrition were compared. Large amounts, more than 20% of the total P in the system, were excreted by Cyclotella cryptica, Thalassiosira fluviatilis, Dunaliella tertiolecta, and Synechococcus under 1 or more of the experimental conditions. Excretion of DOP was proportional to light intensity in Dunaliella, Rhodomonas, Chlorella sp., and Coccolithus huxleyi. Phosphorus limitation reduced DOP production by Cyclotella and Thalassiosira, nitrogen limitation reduced DOP production by Phaeodactylum, Dunaliella, and Rhodomonas, and lack of iron reduced DOP levels in Cyclotella cultures. Salinity affected growth, but no clear relationship to DOP excretion was evident. The DOP eliminated during growth was reassimilated by the species that produced it and by other species, but lack of alkaline phosphatase reduced the amount of DOP that was available to certain algae. 相似文献

Effects of different iron concentrations (final concentrations of iron in Artari’s medium: 3.7, 37.0, 74.0, and 185.0 mmol·L−1) on growth rate and contents of protein, triacylglycerides, and β-carotene in Dunaliella viridis cells at cultivation in different months were investigated. It was shown that the dose-dependent effects of iron were notable
for season variability. In the 1st experimental series (October, 2007), iron at researched concentrations did not affect growth rate of culture and protein,
triacylglyceride, and β-carotene contents in cells. In experimental series conducted respectively in November 2007, December
2007, and February 2008, the dose-dependent stimulation of microalgae growth was observed. For each of these experimental
series, there were particular dose dependences of protein, triacylglyceride, and β-carotene contents in microalgae cells at
cultivation on media with iron at different concentrations. Meanwhile, for all of the four experimental series conducted in
different months, variability of growth rate and analyzed parameters of microalgae Dunaliella viridis as control (cultivation without iron) was shown. It is suggested that these functional differences of control cultures of
microalgae in different months caused variability in the dose-dependent effects of iron in a Dunaliella viridis culture. The possibility of iron usage for increasing microalgae biomass and for enriching it by β-carotene in Dunaliella viridis culture with initial low productivity and low β-carotene content is considered. 相似文献

- Comparisons were made of the effects of salt on the exponential growth rates of two unicellular algae,Dunaliella tertiolecta (marine) andDunaliella viridis (halophilic).
- The algae contained glycerol in amounts which varied directly with the salt concentration of the growth media. The highest measured glycerol content ofD. tertiolecta was approximately equivalent to 1.4 molal and occurred in algae grown in 1.36 M sodium chloride. The highest glycerol content measured inD. viridis was approximately equivalent to 4.4 molal and occurred in algae grown in 4.25 M sodium chloride. Lower concentrations of free glucose, which varied inversely with extracellular salt concentration, were also detected.
- It is inferred that Na+ is effectively excluded from the two algae. There was some evidence of a moderate uptake of K+.
- Comparisons were made of erude preparations of the glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and an NADP-specific glycerol dehydrogenase from each species and of the effects of salt and glycerol on the activities of these enzymes. It is concluded that the different salt tolerances of the two algae cannot be explained by generalized differences between their enzyme proteins.
- Although intracellular glycerol must necessarily contribute to the osmotic status of the algae, its primary function in influencing their salt relations is considered to be that of a compatible solute, whereby glycerol maintains enzyme activity under conditions of high extracellular salt concentration and hence low (thermodynamic) water activity.

Reductions in the growth light level (40 to 6 μmol m-2 s-1) resulted in increases in chlorophyll and protein per cell for all of the species examined. Only Dunaliella tertiolecta exhibited a reduction in chlorophyll a:b ratio with decreases in the photon flux density. However, the specific absorption coefficient (ā? i ) normalized to chlorphyll a (ā? a remained invariant for all of the microalgae studied. Constant values for the specific absorption coefficient normalized to the total pigment content (ā? a+b ) were also found for the species Chlamydomonas rheinhardii, Euglena viridis and Scenedesmus obliquus. In contrast ā? a+b for D. tertiolecta decreased with a reduction in light level due to an increase in the proportion of chlorophyll b. Differences in ā? i were related to cell size and pigment content and possible reasons for the constancy of ā? a discussed. Increases in the absorption cross sections (¯sQ a ) were also found at reduced light levels due to an increase in the absorptance per cell (αcell). The lower αcell for D. tertiolecta, compared with C. rheinhardii was exactly compensated for by a larger light-capturing area. Although the increase in αcell does not compensate for the reduction in the incident light level, it does reduce this range by half on an absorbed light basis. 相似文献

N,N′-Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCCD), an inhibitor of membrane-bound ATPase, strongly inhibited the growth, as measured by an increase in cell number, of Dunaliella tertiolecta. However, this inhibition was reversed by simultaneous application of adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) or adenosine 2′-monophosphate (2′-AMP). Adenosine and adenosine 5′-diphosphate (ADP) were ineffective in restroration of the DCCD-inhibited growth. Gibberellin A3 (GA3) and 2,4- dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) also reversed the inhibition of DCCD on D. tertiolecta growth, although these plant growth regulators did not promote an increase in cell number. 相似文献

The ascorbic acid (vitamin C) concentrations in 11 species of microalgae commonly used in mariculture were determined. The species examined were 4 diatoms (Chaetoceros calcitrans (Paulsen) Takano,Chaetoceros gracilis Schütt,Skeletonema costatum (Greville) Cleve,Thalassiosira pseudonana (Hustedt, clone 3H) Hasle and Heimdal); 2 prymnesiophytes (Isochrysis sp. (clone T.ISO) Parke,Pavlova lutheri (Droop) Green); 1 prasinophyte (Tetraselmis suecica (Kylin) Butcher); 2 chlorophytes (Dunaliella tertiolecta Butcher,Nannochloris atomus Butcher); 1 eustigmatophyte (Nannochloropsis oculata (Droop) Green); and 1 cryptophyte (Chroomonas salina (Wislouch) Butcher). Duplicate cultures of each species were grown under defined conditions and analysed during both logarithmic and stationary phase of growth.Average values for ascorbic acid ranged from 9.4 fg cell–1 (N. oculata, stationary phase) to 700 fg cell–1 (S. costatum, stationary phase). This value was generally related to cell size. Levels of ascorbic acid cell–1 increased during the stationary growth phase forS. costatum andD. tertiolecta and decreased forC. gracilis, T. pseudonana, C. salina andN. oculata. Levels did not change significantly for the remaining species.Average values for per cent ascorbic acid ranged from 0.11% (T. pseudonana, stationary phase) to 1.62% of dry weight (C. gracilis, logarithmic phase). The per cent ascorbic acid was not related to algal class. Also, the percentage between logarithmic and stationary phase cultures differed for many of the species, but differences were unrelated to algal class.Chaetoceros gracilis, T. pseudonana, N. oculata andIsochrysis sp. (T.ISO) had higher per cent ascorbic acid during the logarithmic phase, whereasD. tertiolecta andN. atomus contained more per cent ascorbic acid during the stationary phase.Despite the differences in the composition of the different microalgae (0.11–1.62% ascorbic acid), all species would provide a rich source of ascorbic acid for maricultured animals, which can require 0.003–0.02% of the vitamin in their diet. 相似文献

Gram-negative bacteria 4.5–5.5 μm in length and 1.2 μm in diameter are found in gastrodermal cells of three stains of freshwater
green hydras,Hydra viridis (Ohio and Carolina from North America, Jubilee strain from England). They are motile via single polar flagella. They were
detected in live animals, Jensen stained material, and electron micrographic sections. Bacteria lose motility quickly upon
release from hydra cells. Green hydras harbor strain-specific numbers of chlorellae in these cells. Other tissue types lack
algae. The chlorella-hydra symbiosis can be disassociated and the partners grown separately; transfer of photosynthate from
algae to hydra occurs. Here we report the presence of endocellular bacterial vesicles specifically associated with cells that
contain the symbiotic chlorellae. No cells that contained algae and lacked bacteria were seen. Vesicles, especially conspicuous
in sexually mature green hydras, are probably produced upon extrusion from the cell. They contain either algae and bacteria
or bacteria alone and are often expelled to the surrounding medium via the coelenteron. Bacteria are absent in nerve cells,
interstitial cells, nematocysts, mucous cells, sperm, and probably in most of the other cell types that lack algae. They are
present in at least one cell type that lacked algae: the columnar ovarian cells. Bacteria were lost in “bleached” hydras,
those induced to lose their algae by high intensity light in a solution of DCMU, a standard inhibitor of photosynthesis. They
were absent in a fourth strain of green hydra (Connecticut Valley,H. viridis) and inH. fusca andH. littoralis, two freshwater nonsymbiotic hydras. All of the hydra lacking bacteria contain conspicuous lipid droplets in their cells.
The presence of large numbers of bacteria has implications for interpretations of metabolic exchange between host and algal
symbionts and for extrapolation of metabolic data from strain to strain ofH. viridis. 相似文献

Exponentially growing cultures of Thalassiosira fluviatilis Hustedt and Dunaliella tertiolecta Butcher were exposed to 4 min temperature shocks of 5° to 20°C above ambient (20°C). Photosynthetic carbon fixation, changes in in vivo fluorescence and fluorescence on the addition of the herbicide DCMU (3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea) were measured over the subsequent 24 h. The fluorescence ratio (R, DCMU-enhanced fluorescence/in vivo fluorescence) paralleled changes in photosynthesis over this period; both were significantly reduced (P < 0.05) by temperature shocks of +15° and +20° C, but +5° and +10° C treatments had no inhibitory effect on either relative to the control. The instantaneous response obtained with the fluorescence ratio indicates that the technique might be applicable to routine bioassay procedures and thus replace the time consuming methods now used for the estimation of 14C-incorporation and growth rates. 相似文献

Dunaliella tertiolecta Butcher was grown at two intensities (33, 150μEin · m?2· s?1) of blue light and white light at 0.25, 0.50 and 1.00 M NaCl. Growth rates were used as an indication of the relative osmoregulatory ability of cells in the various treatments. There was no significant effect on growth rate due to various NaCl molarities. No significant difference in growth rate was found between blue- and white-light cultures at the high intensity, the average growth constant being 2.07 divisions/day. However, at the low intensity illumination, blue light produced a significant increase in growth rate; 1.42 vs. 0.93 divisions/day for blue light and white light grown cells respectively. The average glycerol content of exponentially dividing cells grown at 0.25, 0.50 and 1.00 M NaCl was 0.12, 0.41 and 1.12 mg/108 cells, respectively, as measured by gas chromatography. The intracellular glycerol content was significantly reduced by blue light at both light intensities and at each NaCl molarity. However, high light intensity reduced cellular glycerol content more than the reduction effected by blue light. Glycerol accumulated in the medium throughout culture growth. Intracellular glycerol content also increased with cellular aging reaching 2.72 mg/108 cells in stationary phase, low intensity 1.00 M NaCl cultures. A negative correlation between glycerol content and growth rate was found. Total inhibition of glycerol production could not be obtained by treatment with blue light. However, this negative correlation possibly indicates that D. tertiolecta expends energy producing an excess amount of glycerol over that required for osmoregulation, leading to a reduction in the growth rate for the organism. 相似文献
