Infection experiments reveal broad host ranges of Eurychasma dicksonii (Oomycota) and Chytridium polysiphoniae (Chytridiomycota), two eukaryotic parasites in marine brown algae (Phaeophyceae)
Unialgal cultures of the brown alga Pylaiella littoralis (L.) Kjellman infected by either Eurychasma dicksonii (Wright) Magnus (Oomycota) or Chytridium polysiphoniae (Cohn) H. E. Petersen (Chytridiomycota) were used to elaborate the host ranges of these pathogens. Infection experiments with 48 host species covering 13 orders of the Phaeophyceae showed that 45 species were susceptible to attack ...
متن کاملIntracellular eukaryotic pathogens in brown macroalgae in the Eastern Mediterranean, including LSU rRNA data for the oomycete Eurychasma dicksonii .
For the Mediterranean Sea, and indeed most of the world's oceans, the biodiversity and biogeography of eukaryotic pathogens infecting marine macroalgae remains poorly known, yet their ecological impact is probably significant. Based on 2 sampling campaigns on the Greek island of Lesvos in 2009 and 1 in northern Greece in 2012, this study provides first records of 3 intracellular eukaryotic path...
متن کاملA Molecular Insight into Algal-Oomycete Warfare: cDNA Analysis of Ectocarpus siliculosus Infected with the Basal Oomycete Eurychasma dicksonii
Brown algae are the predominant primary producers in coastal habitats, and like land plants are subject to disease and parasitism. Eurychasma dicksonii is an abundant, and probably cosmopolitan, obligate biotrophic oomycete pathogen of marine brown algae. Oomycetes (or water moulds) are pathogenic or saprophytic non-photosynthetic Stramenopiles, mostly known for causing devastating agricultural...
متن کاملC4-Metabolism in Marine Brown Macrophytic Algae
Photosynthesis, Dark Fixation, /?-Carboxylation, C4-Metabolism, Brown Algae Marine brown macroalgae including Macrocystis integrifolia, Nereocystis luetkeana, Lessoniopsis littoralis, Laminaria saccharina, Fucus serratus and some further representatives of the Laminariales and Fucales (Phaeophyta) have been investigated with respect to their remarkably high potential for /?-carboxylation of pho...
متن کاملIron Utilization in Marine Cyanobacteria and Eukaryotic Algae
Iron is essential for aerobic organisms. Additionally, photosynthetic organisms must maintain the iron-rich photosynthetic electron transport chain, which likely evolved in the iron-replete Proterozoic ocean. The subsequent rise in oxygen since those times has drastically decreased the levels of bioavailable iron, indicating that adaptations have been made to maintain sufficient cellular iron l...
