Morphological adaptation of a planktonic diatom to growth in Antarctic sea ice
Chaetoceros dichaeta Ehrenberg is one of the most important planktonic diatom species in the Southern Ocean, making a significant contribution to the total biomass in the region. Our observations on both field and culture material have revealed the existence of a specialized form of C. dichaeta adapted to living in sea ice. This sea ice form differs from the planktonic form by the shape and ori...
متن کاملTemporal Changes in Population Structure of a Marine Planktonic Diatom
A prevailing question in phytoplankton research addresses changes of genetic diversity in the face of huge population sizes and apparently unlimited dispersal capabilities. We investigated population genetic structure of the pennate planktonic marine diatom Pseudo-nitzschia multistriata at the LTER station MareChiara in the Gulf of Naples (Italy) over four consecutive years and explored possibl...
متن کاملA Novel Solid Medium for Culturing Mycobacterium tuberculosis Isolates from Clinical Specimens.
The laboratory diagnosis of tuberculosis usually relies on culture-based isolation of the causative Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria. We developed and evaluated the performance of MOD9, a new blood-free derivative of the MOD4 solid medium on which we previously reported for the isolation and culture of mycobacteria. First, inoculation of Lowenstein-Jensen medium with 21 M. tuberculosis isola...
متن کاملPriority effects in a planktonic bloom-forming marine diatom
Priority effects occur when a species or genotype with earlier arrival has an advantage such that its relative abundance in the community or population is increased compared with later-arriving species. Few studies have dealt with this concept in the context of within-species competition. Skeletonema marinoi is a marine diatom that shows a high degree of genetic differentiation between populati...
متن کاملLake warming favours small-sized planktonic diatom species
Diatoms contribute to a substantial portion of primary production in the oceans and many lakes. Owing to their relatively heavy cell walls and high nutrient requirements, planktonic diatoms are expected to decrease with climate warming because of reduced nutrient redistribution and increasing sinking velocities. Using a historical dataset, this study shows that diatoms were able to maintain the...
