Nitrogen-fixing, photosynthetic, anaerobic bacteria associated with pelagic copepods
Purple sulfur bacteria are photosynthetic, anaerobic microorganisms that fix carbon dioxide using hydrogen sulfide as an electron donor; many are also nitrogen fixers. Because of t h e ~ r requirements for sulfide or orgamc carbon as electron donors in anoxygenic photosynthesis, these bacteria are generally thought to be l im~ted to shallow, organic-nch, anoxic environments such as subtidal mar...
متن کاملTiming and Success of Breeding in Pelagic Cormorants
Of the 6 cormorant species that inhabit the North Pacific, the Pelagic Cormorant (Phalocrocorax pelagicus) is the smallest and most widely distributed (Hobson 1997). Pelagic Cormorants breed from Baja California in the eastern Pacific north to the Bering and Chukchi Seas, and south across the western Pacific to southern China. North America supports an estimated one-third of the global populati...
متن کامل3 Testing for resistance of pelagic marine copepods 4 to a toxic dinoflagellate 5 SEAN
11 Abstract. With few exceptions, the evolutionary consequences of harmful algae to grazers in 12 aquatic systems remain unexplored. To examine both the ecological and evolutionary consequences 13 of harmful algae on marine zooplankton, we used a two-fold approach. In the first approach, we 14 examined the life history responses of two geographically separate Acartia hudsonica (Copepoda: 15 Cal...
متن کاملControl of larval Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) by cyclopoid copepods in peridomestic breeding containers.
Mesocyclops longisetus (Thiébaud), Mesocyclops thermocyclopoides Harada, Mesocyclops venezolanus Dussart, and Macrocyclops albidus (Jurine) were tested for their effectiveness in controlling Aedes aegypti (L.) larvae in a variety of containers around homes in El Progreso, Honduras. All four cyclopoid species killed > 20 larvae per cyclopoid per d under container conditions. M. longisetus was mo...
متن کاملA metabolic approach to dormancy in pelagic copepods helps explaining inter- and intra-specific variability in life-history strategies
Dormancy (diapause) is a key life-history strategy of pelagic copepods that allows them to thrive in highly seasonal environments. Successful dormancy of copepodid stages requires the ability to store energy efficiently (for example as lipids) and to slow down the rate of mobilization of this capital during the dormant period. The physiology of lipids in copepods has been extensively reviewed; ...
