背角无齿蚌(Anodonta woodiana)对浅水系统底栖和浮游藻类竞争关系的影响

底栖藻类和浮游藻类之间的竞争关系对浅水生态系统的结构、功能具有重要的影响,双壳类可通过滤食控制浮游藻类,从而改变底栖藻类与浮游藻类之间的竞争结果。论文通过比较放养背角无齿蚌(Anodonta woodiana)(蚌处理组)与不放养背角无齿蚌(对照组)系统中底栖藻类、浮游藻类的生物量和优势种等的变化,研究了滤食性双壳类对底栖藻类和浮游藻类间竞争的影响。结果表明,背角无齿蚌可显著降低浮游藻类生物量,提高水体透明度和沉积物表面光照条件,从而显著提高底栖藻类的生物量;背角无齿蚌也改变了浮游藻类的优势种,使优势种由蓝藻转变成硅藻。因此,滤食性双壳类有利于促进浅水生态系统从混水态向清水态转变,本研究结果对富营养化浅水湖泊修复与管理具有一定的参考意义。     

Photosynthetic plasticity of endosymbionts in larger benthic coral reef Foraminifera

Larger benthic Foraminifera (LBF) are ecologically important coral reef protists that harbour a large diversity of symbionts from at least four algal phyla. In this study the photosynthetic plasticity of different endosymbiontic algae found within LBF was investigated using pulse amplitude modulated (PAM) fluorometry. Maximum quantum efficiencies of photosystem II (F_v/F_m) obtained from foraminiferal specimens directly after field collection indicated several pronounced differences between species containing endosymbionts from different algal phyla and, to a lesser extent, also varied between species that contain the same phyla of endosymbiontic algae. Foraminiferal species retaining functional chloroplasts and rhodophyte-bearing species had distinctly lower F_v/F_m, than LBF with dinoflagellates, diatoms or chlorophytes. A laboratory experiment was conducted over 48 h exposing species occurring in high- (photophilic), medium- and low-light (sciaphilic) environments to three manipulated light levels. Photophysiological responses were monitored by measuring F_v/F_m at regular intervals and rapid light curves (RLCs) at the end of the experiment. This experiment demonstrated oscillation of maximum quantum efficiencies according to the light-dark cycle. Changes in the shape of the RLCs (e.g., higher α and lower E_k under low light conditions) indicated that photosynthetic plasticity allows LBF to acclimatise rapidly (< 48 h) to different light conditions.     

Differential luxury phosphate response of planktonic algae to phosphorus removal

After a thirty-fold lowering of the orthophosphate concentration of the eutrophic River Meuse, the granular polyphosphate reserve of planktonic algae did not decrease significantly. Although the algal populations were clearly limited by phosphorus, individual cells stored phosphorus but did not use it to increase their biomass.

Lower Serpukhovian (Steshevian) foraminifers and algae from exotic limestone clasts of Nötsch (Eastern Alps,Austria)

The > 1,000 m-thick Carboniferous sedimentary succession of Nötsch is divided into the Erlachgraben, Badstub, and Nötsch formations with poorly constrained precise ages, but probably constituting a continuous lithostratigraphic Group deposited from the latest Viséan to the early Bashkirian, thus including a complete Serpukhovian succession. We date the early Serpukhovian (Steshevian) in exotic limestone clasts of the Badstub Fm. based on algae and foraminifers. These limestone clasts have been reworked from a carbonate shelf, indicating that they are older than the Badstub Fm. Microfacies and fossil assemblages indicate that a shallow marine carbonate shelf was developed at the northern margin of the deep-sea basin of Nötsch. The assemblages include the red alga Hortonella, rare green algae, and incertae sedis algae Praedonezella, Aoujgalia, and Frustulata; howchiniid and lasiodiscid foraminifers; atypical endothyrids, probably belonging to Semiendothyra emend.; rare Janischewskina; taxonomically disputable eostaffellids (including Eostaffellina aff. paraprotvae) and pseudoendothyrids; attached forms transitional between pseudolituotubid Fusulinata and calcivertellid Miliolata; and probably the oldest known free Miliolata. Newly described taxa include the incertae sedis algae Praedonezella sebbarae nov. sp. and the foraminifers Pseudoendotaxis nov. gen., Quasilituotuba serpens nov. sp., Q. pseudospiroides nov. sp., and Eoglomospiroides carnica nov. sp. Revised foraminiferal taxa include Pseudolituotubidae, Quasilituotuba cf. serpuchoviensis nov. comb., and Q. ex gr. extensa nov. comb. The studied material provides information about the phylogeny of the first Miliolata and permits the reconstruction of the lineage of Pseudolituotubidae and Calcivertellidae, between the classes Fusulinata and Miliolata. The palaeobiogeography of Austria during the Serpukhovian is not yet clearly established, but relationships with the Saharan and Mediterranean Provinces exist, and especially with the Donbass. Fewer relationships are conspicuous with England, the Moscow Basin or the Urals.     

Correlation of Infectivity and Concanavalin A Agglutinability of Algae Exsymbiotic from Paramecium bursaria

SYNOPSIS. Eighteen strains of algae, including 17 exsymbiotic from Paramecium bursaria , were tested for infectivity for P. bursaria , syngen 2 aposymbiotes, and Concanavalin A (Con A) agglutinability. All 6 infective algal strains were relatively resistant to agglutination by Con A, suggesting that algal surface characteristics are correlated with infectivity. Among the noninfective strains, high and low agglutinability were about equally represented, indicating that the Con A titer alone is not a sufficient indicator of infectivity. It is suggested that noninfective algal strains are the progeny of mutations occurring within the endozoic population and fortuitously selected by the external culture medium.     

珊瑚及共生藻在白化过程中的适应机制研究进展

珊瑚礁生态系统具有非常重要的生态学功能。但是随着全球气候变暖和CO2浓度的升高,珊瑚白化事件越来越频繁,珊瑚礁生态系统面临严重的危机。影响珊瑚白化的重要因子主要有海水温度的异常（过高或过低）,太阳辐射与紫外线辐射,海水盐度的偏离,珊瑚疾病,海洋污染,长棘海星的爆发,人类的过度捕鱼和全球CO2浓度升高等。其中,海洋表面水体温度（SST）的异常升高为珊瑚白化的主要因素。珊瑚主要是通过珊瑚与共生藻的生理适应机制以及更换共生藻基因型机制两种方式来适应环境胁迫的。生理适应机制主要通过叶黄素循环、珊瑚色素荧光（热）、活性氧清除系统（自由基）、分泌紫外线吸收物质MAAs（紫外光）、产生热休克蛋白HspS（热）来实现的。珊瑚共生藻基因型更换适应机制是指珊瑚的适应性白化假说。珊瑚的适应性白化假说还有很多争议,还需要更多的实验证据提供支持。未来的研究重点将在珊瑚白化过程中共生藻-珊瑚共生功能体作为整体性的研究,尤其是珊瑚宿主在白化过程中对共生功能体作出贡献的研究。

Light/Dark Cycle and Temperature-Their Impact on Phosphate-Limited Growth of Oscillatoria redekei VAN GOOR in Semicontinuous Culture

Phosphate-limited growth of Oscillatoria redekei in semicontinuous culture has been studied under conditions of continuous illumination at 20 °C as well as in a 12/12 hours light-dark cycle at temperatures between 5 °C and 20 °C. The subsistence quota (q₀) amounted to 0.052 μmol mm⁻³ under all conditions, when the phosphate quota was expressed on the basis of cell volume. The interaction between temperature and phosphate quota and its impact on growth rate are described by the following model: Parameter values are t_opt=24.5 °C, t_min=0.95 °C, μ_max =0.873 d⁻¹. The maximum phosphate quota was found to depend on temperature and to increase along with declining temperature.
