Ocean Acidification Reduces Growth and Calcification in a Marine Dinoflagellate
Ocean acidification is considered a major threat to marine ecosystems and may particularly affect calcifying organisms such as corals, foraminifera and coccolithophores. Here we investigate the impact of elevated pCO2 and lowered pH on growth and calcification in the common calcareous dinoflagellate Thoracosphaera heimii. We observe a substantial reduction in growth rate, calcification and cyst...
متن کاملThe fine structure of Gonyaulax polyedra, a bioluminescent marine dinoflagellate.
An electron-microscope study of Gonyaulax polyedra, a holophytic marine dinoflagellate which is bioluminescent, has revealed 2 structures not previously described in free-living dinoflagellates: a polyvesicular body occurring at intervals along the cell's periphery, and a large spherical body which may function in intracellular digestion. Coated vesicles were found in the nuclear-Golgi region. ...
متن کاملCurrent Knowledge and Recent Advances in Marine Dinoflagellate Transcriptomic Research
Dinoflagellates are essential components in marine ecosystems, and they possess two dissimilar flagella to facilitate movement. Dinoflagellates are major components of marine food webs and of extreme importance in balancing the ecosystem energy flux in oceans. They have been reported to be the primary cause of harmful algae bloom (HABs) events around the world, causing seafood poisoning and the...
متن کاملEnvironmental Barcoding Reveals Massive Dinoflagellate Diversity in Marine Environments
BACKGROUND Dinoflagellates are an ecologically important group of protists with important functions as primary producers, coral symbionts and in toxic red tides. Although widely studied, the natural diversity of dinoflagellates is not well known. DNA barcoding has been utilized successfully for many protist groups. We used this approach to systematically sample known "species", as a reference t...
