Isolated broken chloroplasts were exposed to irradiances up to 200 W · m−2 at temperatures between 0°C and 20°C. The degradation of their photochemical apparatus resembles that, induced in photosynthesizing cells by extremely high irradiances (photoinhibition) or by moderate irradiances in presence of chloramphenicol. Electron transport through Photosystem II and variable fluorescence decline in parallel, displaying irradiance-dependent biphasic kinetics (typical half-times of hours). The decay of Photosystem II activities is followed by a delay of several hours by disappearance of the pigment-protein complex CPa (the core of Photosystem II). Photosystem I activity and the corresponding pigment-protein complexes disappear much slower than those of Photosystem II, particularly in thylakoids exposed to light at lower temperatures (below 10°C). Exposures were made in the presence and absence of: electron acceptors, oxygen (vs. nitrogen flushing), ascorbate, catalase and DCMU; none of these agents caused a substantial difference in the rate of degradation. Bovine serum albumin increases nonspecifically the stability of all chloroplast activities both in light and dark. Our results agree with the proposed central role in the inhibition of the QB protein. The cause of its inactivation remains obscure. Hypotheses assuming PQ⨪, PQ= or activated oxygen as the noxious species do not conform with some of our data. The primary step in QB protein inactivation need not be a damage to it; its modification serving regulatory purposes is an alternative possibility. 相似文献

Seasonally slowly melting mountain snowfields are populated by extremophilic microalgae. In alpine habitats, high-light sensitive, green phytoflagellates are usually observed in subsurface layers deeper in the snowpack under dim conditions, while robust orange to reddish cyst stages can be seen exposed on the surface. In this study, uncommon surface green snow was investigated in the High Tatra Mountains (Slovakia). The monospecific community found in the green surface bloom consisted of vegetative Chloromonas cells (Volvocales, Chlorophyta). Molecular data demonstrated that the field sample and the strain isolated and established from the bloom were conspecific, and they represent a new species, Chloromonas kaweckae sp. nov., which is described based on the morphology of the vegetative cells and asexual reproduction and on molecular analyses of the strain. Cells of C. kaweckae accumulated approximately 50% polyunsaturated fatty acids, which is advantageous at low temperatures. In addition, this new species performed active photosynthesis at temperatures close to the freezing point showed a light compensation point of 126 ± 22 μmol photons · m−2 · s−1 and some signs of photoinhibition at irradiances greater than 600 μmol photons · m−2 · s−1. These data indicate that the photosynthetic apparatus of C. kaweckae could be regarded as adapted to relatively high light intensities, otherwise unusual for most flagellate stages of snow algae. 相似文献

Growth and pigment concentrations of the, estuarine dinoflagellate, Prorocentrum mariae-lebouriae (Parke and Ballantine) comb. nov., were measured in cultures grown in white, blue, green and red radiation at three different irradiances. White irradiances (400–800 nm) were 13.4, 4.0 and 1.8 W · m?2 with photon flux densities of 58.7 ± 3.5, 17.4 ± 0.6 and 7.8 ± 0.3 μM quanta · m?2· s?1, respectively. All other spectral qualities had the same photon flux densities. Concentrations of chlorophyll a and chlorophyll c were inversely related to irradiance. A decrease of 7- to 8-fold in photon flux density resulted in a 2-fold increase in chlorophyll a and c and a 1.6- to 2.4-fold increase in both peridinin and total carotenoid concentrations. Cells grown in green light contained 22 to 32% more peridinin per cell and exhibited 10 to 16% higher peridinin to chlorophyll a ratios than cells grown in white light. Growth decreased as a function of irradiance in white, green and red light grown cells but was the same at all blue light irradiances. Maximum growth rates occurred at 8 μM quanta · m?2· s?1 in blue light, while in red and white light maximum growth rates occurred at considerably higher photon flux densities (24 to 32 μM quanta · m?2· s?1). The fastest growth rates occurred in blue and red radiation. White radiation producing maximum growth was only as effective as red and blue light when the photon flux density in either the red or blue portion of the white light spectrum was equivalent to that of a red or of blue light treatment which produced maximum growth rates. These differences in growth and pigmentation indicate that P. mariae-lebouriae responds to the spectral quality under which it is grown. 相似文献

Germlings were grown from Monostroma latissimum Wittr. reproductive cells on nylon ropes. Holdfast threads and some uniseriate filaments were observed to have penetrated the fibers of the dispersed ropes. The algal filaments were easily isolated and prepared for cultivation, in comparison to the methods of enzymatically isolated algal protoplasts. Under low light (60–100 μmol photons · m?2 · s?1), the algal filaments grew to form a filamentous mass. When cultivated under stronger light (300–600 μmol photons · m?2 · s?1), they grew to initially form tubular thalli and then, when cultivated under light intensities >700 μmol photons · m?2 · s?1, formed foliaceous thalli. Consequently, the filaments were homogenized into small sections and then sewed on the nylon rope for algal mass cultivation. Under high‐intensity natural light, they grew to form leafy thalli. 相似文献

Young plants of Laminaria hyperborea collected from the field were grown for 2·5–4 weeks in blue, green, red and white (simulated underwater) light fields at 5, 20 and 100 μmol m-2s-1. The absolute concentrations of all pigments showed little variation with irradiance in green and white light, but decreased in high irradiances of red and blue light. The ratio of fucoxanthin to chlorophyll a also increased in the latter treatments, as did the chlorophyll c:a ratio in bright red light. There was little difference in the action spectrum for photosynthesis between the different light qualities at any one irradiance, but the action spectra for plants grown at 100 μmol m-2s-1 showed deeper troughs and higher peaks than those for plants grown at lower irradiances. Gross photosynthesis per unit of thallus area at 10 μmol m-2s-1 decreased in plants with low total pigment concentrations, but the photosynthesis per unit of pigment concentration increased. This suggestion of self-shading of pigment molecules within the algal thalli was supported by a flattening of the action spectrum in plants with higher chlorophyll a contents. The variations observed between the action spectra for different plants could thus be attributed to the decrease in pigment content at high irradiances, and not to the light quality in which the plants were grown. 相似文献

We investigated the composition of benthic microbial mats in permanently ice-covered Lake Hoare, Antarctica, and their irradiance vs. photosynthetic oxygen exchange relationships. Mats could be subdivided into three distinct depth zones: a seasonally ice-free “moat” zone and two under-ice zones. The upper under-ice zone extended from below the 3.5 m thick ice to approximately 13 m and the lower from below 13 m to 22 m. Moat mats were acclimated to the high irradiance they experienced during summer. They contained photoprotective pigments, predominantly those characteristic of cyanobacteria, and had high compensation and saturating irradiances (Ec and Ek) of 75 and 130 μmol photons·m−2·s−1, respectively. The moat mats used light inefficiently. The upper under-ice community contained both cyanobacteria and diatoms. Within this zone, biomass (as pigments) increased with increasing depth, reaching a maximum at 10 m. Phycoerythrin was abundant in this zone, with shade acclimation and efficiency of utilization of incident light increasing with depth to a maximum of 0.06 mol C fixed·mol−1 incident photons under light-limiting conditions. Precipitation of inorganic carbon as calcite was associated with this community, representing up to 50% of the carbon sequestered into the sediment. The lower under-ice zone was characterized by a decline in pigment concentrations with depth and an increasing prevalence of diatoms. Photosynthesis in this community was highly shade acclimated and efficient, with Ec and Ek below 0.5 μmol·m−2·s−1 and 2 μmol·m−2·s−1, respectively, and maximum yields of 0.04 mol C fixed·mol−1 incident quanta. Carbon uptake in situ by both under-ice and moat mats was estimated at up to 100 and 140 mg·m−2·day−1, based on the photosynthesis–irradiance curves, incident irradiance, and light attenuation by ice and the water column. 相似文献

Effects of irradiance and water flow on formation and growth of filamentous and spongy thalli of Codium fragile (Suringar) Hariot growing on vinylon threads were investigated at the laboratory culture. They showed clear differences in their irradiance and water flow requirements for their formation and growth. Spongy thalli were formed from the cultured filamentous thalli only at the high water flow velocity (10 cm s−1). Number of the spongy thalli remarkably increased with increasing irradiance because those at 10, 50 and 100 μmol m−2 s−1 reached 0, 2 and 76 thalli m−1, respectively, by 10 weeks of culture. In contrast, filamentous thalli were formed from the cultured spongy thalli at 0 and 3 cm s−1, and difference in irradiance had no effect on their formation. Growth of the spongy thalli greatly accelerated under the combination of the high irradiance and high water velocity (200 μmol m−2 s−1 and 10 cm s−1) because their relative growth rate in wet weight under the condition was two–four times higher than those at the other examined irradiances and water velocities. On the other hand, difference in water velocity had no effect on growth of the filamentous thalli under flowing water, and their growth decelerated at the high irradiance (200 μmol m−2 s−1). This demonstrates that water flow is a major factor controlling the formation of the spongy and filamentous thalli. The formation and growth of the spongy thalli surely occur under the combination of the high irradiance and fast flowing water. In contrast, the formation of the filamentous thalli occurs in the calm water, and their growth is inhibited under the high irradiance. 相似文献

Intraspecific variations in the reproduction of individual ramets and monospecific patches of the understory herb Arnica cordifolia Hook. were compared with variations in photosynthesis and understory light conditions. Ramets and patches were compared from three microhabitats (open, intermediate, and shaded) that differed in daily integrated irradiance. Individual ramets from open microhabitats (> 12 MJ m−2 d−1) had 23% more total dry wt and produced twice as many seeds, when compared to ramets from shaded locations (< 5 MJ m−2 d−1). In addition, monospecific patches from open locations were 63% more dense, and estimates of seed and vegetative patch reproductive effort were 4 and 2 times greater, respectively, when compared to shaded plant patches. For all measurements, ramets and patches from intermediate understory locations (6–10 MJ m−2 d−1) were intermediate in reproductive capacity between those of open and shaded locations. In addition, A. cordifolia seeds from open microhabitats germinated significantly better (45%) than either intermediate or shaded location seeds under high light and only seeds from shaded microhabitats germinated (14%) in the dark. Compared to shaded location plants, the greater total dry weight and seed production of individual ramets and the greater estimated reproductive effort of patches from open locations corresponded to a greater maximum photosynthetic rate (16.9 μmoles m−2 s−1) and daily carbon gain (12.2 g m−2 d−1). Possibly, a greater photosynthetic capacity may make more photosynthetic resources available for reproduction by A. cordifolia plants in open locations. Thus, intraspecific variation in physiology may contribute to intraspecific variation in reproduction. 相似文献

The biosynthesis and turnover of the pigments fucoxanthin, diadinoxanthin (DD), and diatoxanthin (DT) were studied in exponentially growing cultures of the diatom Thalassiosira weissflogii (Grunow) Fryxell and Hasle to investigate the dependence of pigment turnover on algal growth rates and light intensity. 14C-bicarbonate was used as a tracer. The labeling kinetics of fucoxanthin and DT were described satisfactorily by a simple precursor-pigment model with two free parameters, the precursor and pigment turnover rate. At growth irradiances < 200 μE · m?2· s?1, labeling kinetics of DD indicated the presence of two kinetically distinct DD pools and at least one precursor pool. The average growth rate-normalized pigment turnover rate of fucoxanthin was 0. The growth rate-normalized turnover rate of DT, determined only at high light irradiances (> 200 μE·m?2·s?1), was 1.3. At high light irradiances, the growth rate-normalized turnover rate of DD was 1.8. At low light irradiances, the turnover rates of the two DD pools were 3.7 and 0, respectively. The corresponding pigment turnover times were on the order of days to weeks, depending on the growth rate of the cultures. A comparison of pigment pool sizes, pigment turnover rates, and precursor turnover rates suggests that fucoxanthin is synthesized from a pool of DD and that DD and DT are synthesized from a common precursor, possibly β-carotene. No evidence was seen for dynamic xanthophyll cycling. This suggests that the commonly known “xanthophyll cycle” is the simple unidirectional conversion of DD into DT, or of DT into DD, in response to rapid irradiance changes. 相似文献

Although sea‐ice represents a harsh physicochemical environment with steep gradients in temperature, light, and salinity, diverse microbial communities are present within the ice matrix. We describe here the photosynthetic responses of sea‐ice microalgae to varying irradiances. Rapid light curves (RLCs) were generated using pulse amplitude fluorometry and used to derive photosynthetic yield (ΦPSII), photosynthetic efficiency (α), and the irradiance (Ek) at which relative electron transport rate (rETR) saturates. Surface brine algae from near the surface and bottom‐ice algae were exposed to a range of irradiances from 7 to 262 μmol photons · m?2 · s?1. In surface brine algae, ΦPSII and α remained constant at all irradiances, and rETRmax peaked at 151 μmol photons · m?2 · s?1, indicating these algae are well acclimated to the irradiances to which they are normally exposed. In contrast, ΦPSII, α, and rETRmax in bottom‐ice algae reduced when exposed to irradiances >26 μmol photons · m?2 · s?1, indicating a high degree of shade acclimation. In addition, the previous light history had no significant effect on the photosynthetic capacity of bottom‐ice algae whether cells were gradually exposed to target irradiances over a 12 h period or were exposed immediately (light shocked). These findings indicate that bottom‐ice algae are photoinhibited in a dose‐dependent manner, while surface brine algae tolerate higher irradiances. Our study shows that sea‐ice algae are able to adjust to changes in irradiance rapidly, and this ability to acclimate may facilitate survival and subsequent long‐term acclimation to the postmelt light regime of the Southern Ocean. 相似文献

Phaeocystis antarctica forms extensive spring blooms in the Southern Ocean that coincide with high concentrations of dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP), dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), dimethylsulfide (DMS), and acrylate. We determined how concentrations of these compounds changed during the growth of axenic P. antarctica cultures exposed to light-limiting, sub-saturating, and saturating PAR irradiances. Cellular DMSP concentrations per liter cell volume (CV) ranged between 199 and 403 mmol · LCV−1, with the highest concentrations observed under light-limiting PAR. Cellular acrylate concentrations did not change appreciably with a change in irradiance level or growth, ranging between 18 and 45 mmol · LCV−1, constituting an estimated 0.2%–2.8% of cellular carbon. Both dissolved acrylate and DMSO increased substantially with irradiance during exponential growth on a per-cell basis, ranging from 0.91 to 3.15 and 0.24 to 1.39 fmol · cell−1, respectively, indicating substantial export of these compounds into the dissolved phase. Average cellular DMSO:DMSP ratios increased 7.6-fold between exponential and stationary phases of batch growth, with a 3- to 13-fold increase in cellular DMSO likely formed from abiotic reactions of DMSP and DMS with reactive oxygen species (ROS). At mM levels, cellular DMSP and acrylate are proposed to serve as de facto antioxidants in P. antarctica not regulated by oxidative stress or changes in ROS. Instead, cellular DMSP concentrations are likely controlled by other physiological processes including an overflow mechanism to remove excess carbon via acrylate, DMS, and DMSO during times of unbalanced growth brought on by physical stress or nutrient limitation. Together, these compounds should aid P. antarctica in adapting to a range of PAR irradiances by maintaining cellular functions and reducing oxidative stress. 相似文献

The light-saturated rate of photosynthesis in blue light was 50-100% higher than that in red light for young sporophytes of Laminaria digitata (Huds.) Lamour., although photosynthetic rates were slightly higher in red than in blue light at low irradiances. Short exposures to low irradiances (e.g. 2 min at 20 μmol · m?2· s?1) of blue light also stimulated the subsequent photosynthesis of Laminaria sporophytes in saturating irradiances of red light but had little effect on photosynthesis in low irradiances of red light. The full stimulatory effect of short exposures to blue light was observed within 5 min of the blue treatment and persisted for at least 15 min in red light or in darkness. Thereafter, the effect began to decline, but some stimulation was still detectable 45 min after the blue treatment. The degree of stimulation was proportional to the logarithm of the photon exposure to blue light over the range 0.15-2.4 mmol · m?2, and the effectiveness of an exposure to 0.6 mmol · m?2at different wavelengths was high at 402-475 nm (with a peak at 460-475 nm) but declined sharply at 475-497 nm and was minimal at 544-701 nm. Blue light appears, therefore, to exert a direct effect on the dark reaction of photosynthesis in brown algae, possibly by activating carbon-fixing enzymes or by stimulating the uptake or transport of inorganic carbon in the plants. 相似文献

Photosynthesis and dark respiration rates were measured in water and in air, and the capacity to recover photosynthetic activity from emersion stress was examined for two species of intertidal, epiphytic macroalgae—Bostrychia calliptera (Montagne) Montagne and Caloglossa leprieurii (Montagne) J. Agardh—collected on prop roots of the red mangrove Rhizophora mangle L. in Buenaventura Bay, Pacific coast of Colombia. In both species, net photosynthetic rates were significantly higher under submersed conditions. Maximum photosynthetic rates (Pmax) in water and in air were highest in B. calliptera, 126 ± 4 versus 52 ± 9 μmol O2·mg chl a−1·h−1, respectively. In C. leprieurii, Pmax of submerged plants in water and in air were 98 ± 9 versus 30 ± 11 μmol O2·mg chla−1·h−1. The photoinhibition model of Platt et al. (1980) was used to fit the experimental data in both water and air for both species. Photoinhibition occurred at irradiance as low as 200 μmol·m−2·s−1. The photosynthesis–light response curves demonstrated an adaptation to shaded habitats for both species, as light compensation points in water and air for both species were below 17 ± 5 μmol·m−2·s−1. The rate of dehydration was significantly lower in thalli of B. calliptera compared to C. leprieurii. An increase of photosynthetic activity in B. calliptera was evident between 5% and 15% water loss, but rates decreased thereafter with declining water content. In C. leprieurii, desiccation negatively influenced photosynthetic rates that significantly decreased linearly with declining water content. In B. calliptera, net photosynthesis reached zero only at a water content between 29% and 35%, whereas in C. leprieurii no net photosynthesis occurred in plants containing less than about 50% of their relative water content. Resubmerged plants ofB. calliptera exhibited 100% photosynthetic recovery after 45 min, whereas C. leprieurii recovered 100% at about 120 min. On the basis of the comparison of rates of light-saturated net photosynthesis for B. calliptera in air versus in water, aerial photosynthetic activity ranged from 35% to 42% of that in water, whereas the emersed photosynthetic capacity of C. leprieurii ranged from 24% to 29% of that in water. Using tidal predictions and the emersed photosynthetic rates, a carbon balance model was constructed for both species over a single daylight period. The calculations indicated that emersed photosynthesis increased average daily carbon production of B. calliptera by 17% and C. leprieuri by 12%. The physiological responses to desiccation stress and the photosynthetic recovery capacities between species correlated with, and may determine, their vertical distribution in the mangrove habitats of Buenaventura Bay. 相似文献

Coastal kelp forests produce substantial marine carbon due to high annual net primary production (NPP) rates, but upscaling of NPP estimates over time and space remains difficult. We investigated the impact of variable underwater photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) and photosynthetic parameters on photosynthetic oxygen production of Laminaria hyperborea, the dominant NE-Atlantic kelp species, throughout summer 2014. Collection depth of kelp had no effect on chlorophyll a content, pointing to a high photoacclimation potential of L. hyperborea towards incident light. However, chlorophyll a and photosynthesis versus irradiance parameters differed significantly along the blade gradient when normalized to fresh mass, potentially introducing large uncertainties in NPP upscaling to whole thalli. Therefore, we recommend a normalization to kelp tissue area, which is stable over the blade gradient. Continuous PAR measurements revealed a highly variable underwater light climate at our study site (Helgoland, North Sea) in summer 2014, reflected by PAR attenuation coefficients (Kd) between 0.28 and 0.87 m−1. Our data highlight the importance of continuous underwater light measurements or representative average values using a weighted Kd to account for large PAR variability in NPP calculations. Strong winds in August increased turbidity, resulting in a negative carbon balance at depths >3–4 m over several weeks, considerably impacting kelp productivity. Estimated daily summer NPP over all four depths was 1.48 ± 0.97 g C · m−2 seafloor · d−1 for the Helgolandic kelp forest, which is in the range of other kelp forests along European coastlines. 相似文献

This study aims to assess the photoprotective potential of desiccation-induced curling in the light-susceptible old forest
lichen Lobaria pulmonaria by using chlorophyll fluorescence imaging. Naturally curled thalli showed less photoinhibition-induced limitations in primary
processes of photosynthesis than artificially flattened specimens during exposures to 450 μmol m−2 s−1 in the laboratory after both 12- (medium dose treatment) and 62-h duration (high dose treatment). Thallus areas shaded by
curled lobes during light exposure showed unchanged values of measured chlorophyll fluorescence parameters (F
V/F
M, ΦPS II), whereas non-shaded parts of curled thalli, as well as the mean for the entire flattened thalli, showed photoinhibitory
limitation after light treatments. Furthermore, the chlorophyll fluorescence imaging showed that the typical small-scale reticulated
ridges on the upper side of L. pulmonaria caused a spatial, small-scale reduction in damage due to minor shading. Severe dry-state photoinhibition readily occurred
in flattened and light-treated L. pulmonaria, although the mechanisms for such damage in a desiccated and inactive stage are not well known. Natural curling is one strategy
to reduce the chance for serious photoinhibition in desiccated L. pulmonaria thalli during high light exposures. 相似文献

The red alga Acrosymphyton purpuriferum (J. Ag.) Sjöst. (Dumontiaceae) is a short day plant in the formation of its tetrasporangia. Tetrasporogenesis was not inhibited by 1 h night-breaks when given at any time during the long (16 h) dark period (tested at 2 h intervals). However, tetrasporogenesis was inhibited when short (8 h) main photoperiods were extended beyond the critical daylength with supplementary light periods (8 h) at an irradiance below photosynthetic compensation. The threshold irradiance for inhibition of tetrasporogenesis was far lower when supplementary light periods preceded the main photoperiod than when they followed it (<0.05 μmol·m−2·s−1 vs. 3 μmol·m−2·s−1). The threshold level also depended on the irradiance given during the main photoperiod and was higher after a main photoperiod in bright light than after one in dim light (threshold at 3 μmol·m−2·s−1 after a main photoperiod at ca. 65 μmol·m−2·s−1 vs. threshold at <0.5 μmol·m−2·s−1 after a main photoperiod at ca. 35 μmol·m−2·s−1). The spectral dependence of the response was investigated in day-extensions (supplementary light period (8 h) after main photoperiod (8 h) at 48 μmol·m−2·s−1) with narrow band coloured light. Blue light (λ= 420 nm) was most effective, with 50% inhibition at a quantum-dose of 2.3 mmol·m−2. However, yellow (λ= 563 nm) and red light (λ= 600 nm; λ= 670 nm) also caused some inhibition, with ca. 30% of the effectiveness of blue light. Only far-red light (λ= 710 nm; λ= 730 nm) was relatively ineffective with no significant inhibition of tetrasporogenesis at quantum-doses of up to 20 mmol·m−2. 相似文献

The effect of ambient and enhanced solar radiation on the photosynthetic apparatus in four marine green macroalgae on the Southern coast of Spain (Strait of Gibraltar) was investigated using pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) fluorescence. The dependence of the fluorescence parameters on the irradiance of the actinic light was determined for all four species. It showed that maximal fluorescence after light adaptation (Fm′), photochemical quenching (qP) and the photosynthetic quantum yield decreased in Enteromorpha muscoides with irradiance while non-photochemical quenching (qN) rose continuously. In Ulva rigida the photosynthetic quantum yield dropped at irradiances above 4 W m−2 but qP did not decrease with increasing light. qN quenching rose sharply above 37 W m−2, and maximal fluorescence dropped above 1 W m−2. In Ulva gigantea the yield dropped to zero at irradiances of 37 W m−2, as did qP at 53 W m−2. qN started from an intermediate level and increased to a maximum at the highest irradiances. In Codium adherens, the yield and qP behaved similarly as in U. rigida, while qN rose at much lower irradiances. All investigated algae suffered from photoinhibition even at their natural sites of growth when the sun is at high angles. The hypothesis that algae with flat thalli suffer more than those with massive ones was confirmed. Photoinhibition was less pronounced in U. rigida and C. adherens than in the other two species. After 1 h of exposure to solar radiation at the surface, the photosynthetic quantum yield decreased substantially in the surface algae E. muscoides and U. rigida. In both macroalgae, recovery of the photosynthetic quantum yield was almost complete after 2–3 h in the shade. Two other green algae from shaded habitats (U. gigantea and C. adherens) did not show complete recovery of the yield from photoinhibition. This confirms the second hypothesis that sun-adapted algae recover faster from photoinhibition than those adapted to shaded sites. 相似文献

The roles of temperature and light on grazing and photosynthesis were examined for Dinobryon sociale, a common freshwater mixotrophic alga. Photosynthetic rate was determined for D. sociale adapted to temperatures of 8, 12, 16, and 20°C under photosynthetically active radiation light irradiances of 25, 66, and 130 μmol photons · m?2 · s?1, with concurrent measurement of bacterial ingestion at all temperatures under medium and high light (66 and 130 μmol photons · m?2 · s?1). Rates of ingestion and photosynthesis increased with temperature to a maximum at 16°C under the two higher light regimes, and declined at 20°C. Although both light and temperature had a marked effect on photosynthesis, there was no significant difference in bacterivory at medium and high irradiances at any given temperature. At the lowest light condition (25 μmol photons · m?2 · s?1), photosynthesis remained low and relatively stable at all temperatures. D. sociale acquired the majority of carbon from photosynthesis, although the low photosynthetic rate without a concurrent decline in feeding rate at 8°C suggested 20%–30% of the carbon budget could be attributed to bacterivory at low temperatures. Grazing experiments in nutrient‐modified media revealed that this mixotroph had increased ingestion rates when either dissolved nitrogen or phosphorus was decreased. This work increases our understanding of environmental effects on mixotrophic nutrition. Although the influence of abiotic factors on phagotrophy and phototrophy in pure heterotrophs and phototrophs has been well studied, much less is known for mixotrophic organisms. 相似文献

Influence of culture conditions such as light, temperature and C/N ratio was studied on growth of Haematococcus pluvialis and astaxanthin production. Light had significant effect on astaxanthin production and it varied with its intensity and direction
of illumination and effective culture ratio (ECR, volume of culture medium/volume of flask). A 6-fold increase in astaxanthin
production (37 mg/L) was achieved with 5.1468·107 erg·m−2·s−1 light intensity (high light, HL) at effective culture ratio of 0.13 compared to that at 0.52 ECR, while the difference in
the astaxanthin production was less than 2 — fold between the effective culture ratios at 1.6175·107 erg·m−2·s−1 light intensity (low light, LL). Multidirectional (three-directional) light illumination considerably enhanced the astaxanthin
production (4-fold) compared to unidirectional illumination. Cell count was high at low temperature (25 °C) while astaxanthin
content was high at 35 °C in both autotrophic and heterotrophic media. In a heterotrophic medium at low C/N ratio H. pluvialis growth was higher with prolonged vegetative phase, while high C/N ratio favoured early encystment and higher astaxanthin
formation. 相似文献
