Blue carbon sequestration is a nature-based solution to environmental problems caused by climate change and has significant positive impact on the planet human well-being. This paper bibliometrically systematically analyzed 2,613 studies found in Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) from 2003 2021 explore hotspots trends blue research using Bibliometrix package R studio VOSviewer software. The results based network co-occurrence analysis indicated that mangroves, seagrasses, salt marshes...
Abstract Urease-producing bacteria (UPB) provide inorganic nitrogen for primary producers by hydrolyzing urea, and play an important role in marine cycle. However, there is still incomplete understanding of UPB their ecological functions the cultivation environment red macroalgae Gracilariopsis lemaneiformis . This study comprehensively analyzed diversity culturable explored effects on urea uptake G. A total 34 isolates belonging to four main bacterial phyla i.e. (Proteobacteria,...
Cataloging an accurate functional gene set for the Symbiodiniaceae species is crucial addressing biological questions of dinoflagellate symbiosis with corals and other invertebrates. To improve models Fugacium kawagutii, we conducted high-throughput chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) genome Illumina combined PacBio sequencing transcriptome to achieve a new assembly prediction. A 0.937-Gbp F. kawagutii were obtained, N50 > 13 Mbp longest scaffold 121 capped telomere motif at both ends....
Connectivity plays a critical role in sustaining the diversity and resilience of coral ecosystem. Dongsha Island, which exhibits extraordinarily high biodiversity lies along key pathway from Coral Triangle to South China Sea (SCS), has an unclear larval dispersal connectivity. Using biophysical simulations, this study depicts spatiotemporal pattern larvae connectivity at Island. Larvae released target reef are relatively highly connected ecosystems Xisha Islands, Zhongsha areas surrounding...
ABSTRACT Urea is an important source of nitrogen for many phytoplankton with the potential to stimulate harmful algal blooms, but molecular machinery underpinning urea uptake and assimilation by algae not fully understood. Urease (URE) commonly regarded as responsible enzyme, amidolyase (UAL), albeit known exist, has hardly been studied. Here, species distribution, expression patterns functional roles UAL are examined. We found a widespread occurrence across six major lineages, along...
ABSTRACT High CO 2 emissions originating from anthropogenic sources have resulted in ocean warming (OW), posing a severe threat to marine organisms and ecosystems. Recent evidence has shown that phytoplankton may acclimate adapt long‐term OW. Whether how diatoms—a functional group of contributes 40% primary production—can OW remains virtually unknown. The model diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum was subjected thermal stress (25°C, compared the Control at 20°C) for 400 days (~400 generations),...
Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a unicellular green alga that can grow heterotrophically by using acetate as carbon source. Carotenoids are natural pigments with biological activity and color, which have functions such antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, vision protection, etc., high commercial value prospects. We transformed the BKT genes from Phaffia rhodozyma (PrBKT) (CrBKT) via plasmid vector, screened out stable algal strains C18 P1. Under condition cell density of growth was not affected,...
Abstract Symbiodiniaceae dinoflagellates are essential endosymbionts of reef building corals and some other invertebrates. Information their genome structure function is critical for understanding coral symbiosis bleaching. With the rapid development sequencing technology, draft assemblies several species diverse marine algal genomes have become publicly available but spread in multiple separate locations. Here, we present a Algal Genomic Resource Database (SAGER), user-friendly online...
Proton-pump rhodopsin (PPR) in marine microbes can convert solar energy to bioavailable chemical energy. Whereas bacterial PPR has been extensively studied, counterparts microeukaryotes are less explored, and the relative importance of two groups is poorly understood. Here, we sequenced whole-assemblage metatranscriptomes investigated diversity expression dynamics microbial eukaryotes prokaryotes at a continental shelf slope site northern South China Sea. Data showed whole PPRs transcript...
Free-living (FL) and particle-associated (PA) bacterioplankton communities play critical roles in biogeochemical cycles the ocean. However, their community composition, assembly process functions continental shelf slope regions are poorly understood. Based on 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing, we investigated bacterial communities' driving factors, processes functional potentials at a subtropical marginal sea. The showed specific distribution patterns with respect to lifestyle (free living...
Lineage-wise physiological activities of plankton communities in the ocean are important but challenging to characterize. Here, we conducted whole-assemblage metatranscriptomic profiling at continental shelf and slope sites South China Sea investigate carbon fixation potential different lineages.
Emiliania huxleyi, a cosmopolitan coccolithophore in the modern ocean, plays an important role carbon cycle and local climate feedback as it can form extensive blooms, calcify, produce dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) leading to generation of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) which affects when oxidized atmosphere. It is known be able utilize dissolved organic phosphorus (DOP) by expressing specific type alkaline phosphatase (EHAP1) under phosphorus-limited conditions. In this study, we identified new...
HABs have increasingly occurred and impacted human health, aquatic ecosystems, coastal economies. Despite great efforts, the factors that drive development termination of a bloom are poorly understood, largely due to inadequate in situ data about physiology metabolism causal species community.
