Substrate specificity of purified preparations of phytase from Asp, terreus was examined. The enzyme showed broad specificity. It was found that Asp, terreus produced only one kind of acid phosphatase and it had phytase activity.Effective materials for the enzyme formation were examined. The formation of the enzyme occurred only during times that mycelia was in contact with inositol.By differential centrifugation and electron-microscopic autoradiography, it was determined that inositol was incorporated into the mycelia and that it was located at almost the same point as where the active enzyme was located. 相似文献

We isolated 15 polymorphic microsatellites from one of the most noxious red tide‐causing dinoflagellate species, Heterocapsa circularisquama. These loci provide one class of highly variable genetic markers, as the number of alleles ranged from two to six, and the estimate of gene diversity was from 0.205 to 0.684 across the 15 microsatellites. These loci have the potential to reveal genetic structure and gene flow among H. circularisquama populations. 相似文献

The responses of division rate, cell volume, cellular carbon (C) and nitrogen (N), cellular pigments and optical characteristics
to changes in salinity were examined in the dinoflagellate Heterocapsa circularisquama. The physiological and optical characteristics of H. circularisquama were significantly affected by changes in salinity. When cells were exposed to different salinities, they exhibited physiological
acclimation by adjusting their cellular properties associated with growth. This could be a beneficial tactic for ensuring
proliferation and limiting damages induced by adverse environmental factors. The results of this study could be essential
for assisting in the development of growth models for H. circularisquama. 相似文献

Two separate experiments with Heterocapsa (= Cachonina ) illdefina Herman et Sweeney, one with and the other without water volume replacement, were performed in a 250-L laboratory mesocosm (45-cm diameter × 150-cm height) to examine how diel vertical migration (DVM) relates to taxis sign and strength and to cellular biochemical state. Although only the cell population grown with water volume replacement maintained a division per day over the course of the experiment, periodic measurements during both experiments demonstrated that cells aggregating at the surface during the light period generally were deficient in all measured biochemical constituents compared to cells obtained from a midcolumn depth. More specifically, H. illdefina cells that aggregated at the surface during the light period in both experiments exhibited weakened positive geotaxis but strengthened positive phototaxis and were very deficient in lipid and free amino acid compared to midcolumn cells. Cells sampled at midcolumn during the light period exhibited similar but weaker taxes changes compared to surface samples, and geotaxis strength was inversely correlated with cell diameter, cellular DNA and protein content, and RNA/DNA ratio. In comparison, published data on Gymnodinium breve Davis, a harmful algal bloom species, showed that cells aggregating at the surface during the light period generally exhibited weakened negative geotaxis and strengthened positive phototaxis and were very deficient in lipid and chl a compared to midcolumn cells. Although the persistent tendency toward negative geotaxis was weaker in midcolumn subpopulations throughout the day, its strength was inversely correlated with cell diameter and cellular lipid content. The combined results for both species support a revised conceptual model of optimized DVM in autotrophic marine dinoflagellates incorporating generalized expressions of taxis and biochemical state of individual cells. 相似文献

The sterol composition of seven strains of marine peridinioid dinoflagellates comprising the four known species of Heterocapsa Stein was examined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry to determine the utility of these compounds in systematics. Cholest-5-en-3β-ol (cholesterol), 24-methyl-cholest-5-en-3β-ol (24-methylcholesterol), 4α,24(S)-dimethyl-5α-cholestan-3β-ol (4,24-dimethylcholestanol), 4α,23,24(R)-trimethyl-5α-cholest-22-en-3β-ol (dinosterol), 4α,23ξ,24ξ-trimethyl-5α-cholestan-3β-ol (dihydrodinosterol), and an unknown sterol were detected. Sterol composition does not vary significantly from species to species within the genus Heterocapsa and thus cannot be used for species differentiation. Sterols may, however, have value in defining the properties of dinoflagellate taxa above the family level. Over the course of the growth curve for Heterocapsa niei (Loeblich) Morrill & Loeblich 4,24-dimethylcholestanol and dinosterol covaried, suggesting that 4,24-dimethylcholestanol is converted into dinosterol by a previously proposed bioalkylation scheme. 相似文献

A new armored dinoflagellate species, Heterocapsa psammophila Tamura, Iwataki et Horiguchi sp. nov. is described from Kenmin‐no‐hama beach, Hiroshima, Japan using light and electron microscopy. This dinoflagellate possesses the typical thecal plate arrangement of the genus Heterocapsa, Po, cp, 5′, 3a, 7′′, 6c, 5s, 5′′′, 2′′′′; and the 3‐D body scales of Heterocapsa on the plasma membrane. The cell shape is ovoidal. The spherical nucleus and the pyrenoid are situated in the hypotheca and the epitheca, respectively. The ultrastructure of H. psammophila is typical of dinoflagellates and the pyrenoid is invaginated by cytoplasmic tubules. H. psammophila is distinguished from all other hitherto‐described Heterocapsa species by the cell shape, the relative position of the nucleus and pyrenoid and the structure of the body scale. The habitat and behavior of this new species in culture suggest that the organism is truly a sand‐dwelling species. 相似文献

Since the first discovery of the very high virus abundance in marine environments, a number of researchers were fascinated with the world of "marine viruses", which had previously been mostly overlooked in studies on marine ecosystems. In the present paper, the possible role of viruses infecting marine eukaryotic microalgae is enlightened, especially summarizing the most up-to-the-minute information of marine viruses infecting bloom-forming dinoflagellates and diatoms. To author's knowledge, approximately 40 viruses infecting marine eukaryotic algae have been isolated and characterized to different extents. Among them, a double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) virus "HcV" and a single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) virus "HcRNAV" are the only dinoflagellate-infecting (lytic) viruses that were made into culture; their hosts are a bivalve-killing dinoflagellate Heterocapsa circularisquama. In this article, ecological relationship between H. circularisquama and its viruses is focused. On the other hand, several diatom-infecting viruses were recently isolated and partially characterized; among them, one is infectious to a pen-shaped bloom-forming diatom species Rhizosolenia setigera; some viruses are infectious to genus Chaetoceros which is one of the most abundant and diverse diatom group. Although the ecological relationships between diatoms and their viruses have not been sufficiently elucidated, viral infection is considered to be one of the significant factors affecting dynamics of diatoms in nature. Besides, both the dinoflagellate-infecting viruses and diatom-infecting viruses are so unique from the viewpoint of virus taxonomy; they are remarkably different from any other viruses ever reported. Studies on these viruses lead to an idea that ocean may be a treasury of novel viruses equipped with fascinating functions and ecological roles. 相似文献

Heterocapsa circularisquama sp. nov. (Peridiniales, Dinophyceae): A new marine dinoflagellate causing mass mortality of bivalves in Japan 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Heterocapsa circularisquama Horiguchi sp. nov. is described from Ago Bay, central Japan. The dinoflagellate produced large-scale red tides in the bays of central and western Japan and caused mass mortality of bivalves, notably the pearl oysters. The cell is small and is composed of a conical epitheca and a hemi-spheroidal hypothecs. The chloroplast is single and is connected to the single pyrenoid. The nucleus is elongated and is located in the left side of the cell. Thecal plate arrangement has been determined as: Po, cp, 5′, 3a, 7″, 6c, 5s, 5″′, 2″″. Heterocapsa circularisquama is morphologically very similar to Heterocapsa illdefina and it is almost impossible to distinguish these two species at light microscopical level. The characteristics which can be used to distinguish these two species are the morphology of body scales and the ultrastructure of the pyrenoid matrix. The body scales of H. circularisquama possess six radiating ridges on the circular basal plate; no such ridges can be observed on the roughly triangular basal plate of the scales of H. illdefina. Furthermore, the scales of the latter species possess substantially shorter spines compared to those of H. circularisquama. The pyrenoid matrix of H. circularisquama is hardly perforated by cytoplasmic tubules, while in H. tlldefina the pyrenoid matrix is always penetrated by many cytoplasmic tubules. Based on the arrangement of thecal plates, morphology of body scales, and ultra-structure of the pyrenoid, I am placing H. circularisquama sp nov. into the genus Heterocapsa. 相似文献

Ecdysis and the location of the plasma membrane in the dinoflagellateHeterocapsa niei 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Summary The outer membrane is the plasma membrane in the pelliculate dinoflagellateHeterocapsa niei (Loeblich) Morrill and Loeblich, except when the cell is preparing to ecdyse and is forming a new amphiesma. At maturity the theca and pellicle are enclosed within a single large amphiesmal vesicle which surrounds the cell; thus, the amphiesmal components are intracellular. The plasma membrane lies outside this vesicle and is continuous with the flagellar membrane. At ecdysis retraction of the flagella and fusion of the innermost or cytoplasmic membrane over the flagellar region facilitates the shedding of all layers external to the cytoplasmic membrane. This membrane eventually becomes the bounding membrane (plasma membrane) of the reformed amphiesma. 相似文献

The thiobarbituric acid (TBA) test for detecting lipid hydroperoxides does not require for fomation of TBA reacting compounds from hydroperoxides, but oxygen has an unfavorable effect, that is, it forms new hydroperoxides during the reaction when unoxidized lipids co-exist. Therefore, a method using a vacuum reaction tube was proposed. 相似文献
