Current sampling of genomic sequence data from eukaryotes is relatively poor, biased, and inadequate to address important questions about their biology, evolution, ecology; this Community Page describes a resource 700 transcriptomes marine microbial help understand role in the world's oceans.
Ironed Out In large regions of the ocean, low levels essential nutrient, iron, limits primary productivity. Iron's chemistry and bioavailability are highly dependent on pH. Rising concentrations atmospheric CO 2 is leading to acidification ocean. Shi et al. (p. 676 , published online 14 January; see Perspective by Sunda ) show that bioavailable fraction iron dissolved in ocean may decline as a result decrease pH, which affects rate uptake diatoms coccolithophores. Unless input oceans...
Abstract. The control of key chemical parameters in phytoplankton cultures, such as pCO2, pH and Ω (the saturation state calcium carbonate), is made difficult by the interdependence these changes resulting from growth organisms, CO2 fixation, nutrient uptake and, for coccolithophores, calcite precipitation. Even cultures where pCO2 or maintained constant, other change substantially at high cell densities. Experimentally we observed that various methods adjustment pCO2/pH – acid base...
Zinc (Zn) serves as a cofactor in several extracellular phosphatases, which allow microorganisms to acquire phosphorus from organic P compounds. In oligotrophic ocean water, where both phosphate and Zn concentrations are low, orthophosphate regeneration through enzymatic hydrolysis of compounds may be restricted by availability. We examined the possibility co-limitation batch cultures coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi grown at very low biomass. Both growth rates phosphatase activity were...
The grass family Poaceae includes annual species cultivated as major grain crops and perennial forage or turf grasses. Heat stress is a primary factor limiting growth productivity of cool-season becoming more significant problem in the context global warming. Plants have developed various mechanisms heat-stress adaptation, including changes protein metabolism such induction heat shock proteins (HSPs). This paper summarizes structure function HSPs, recent research progress on association HSPs...
A recent study of the effect pH on Zn and Cd bioavailability shows that binding to weak organic ligands can increase pool metals available phytoplankton in presence strong chelating agents. We explore underlying mechanism laboratory experiments with model species Emiliania huxleyi Thalassiosira weissflogii. Additions L- D- isomers cysteine (Cys) result similar increases uptake rates chelator ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) but decrease it absence EDTA, ruling out by a specific Zn-Cys...
Cytokinins (CKs) are known to regulate leaf senescence and affect heat tolerance, but mechanisms underlying CK regulation of tolerance not well understood. A comprehensive proteomic study was conducted identify proteins altered by the expression adenine isopentenyl transferase (ipt) gene controlling synthesis associated with in transgenic plants for a C(3) perennial grass species, Agrostis stolonifera. Transgenic two different inducible promoters (SAG12 HSP18) null transformant (NT)...
In natural samples from the New Jersey coast and Gulf of Alaska, zinc (Zn) cadmium (Cd) uptake rates by phytoplankton decreased on average about 30% as pH was 8.5 to 7.9 or 7.7, partial pressure carbon dioxide (PCO 2 ) increased accordingly. The underlying mechanism explored with model species, Thalassiosira weissflogii Emiliania huxleyi , using ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), desferrioxamine B, phytochelatin, cysteine complexing agents. Experiments single agents did not reproduce...

Recently, we developed a novel tea cultivar 'Ziyan' with distinct purple leaves. There was significant correlation between leaf color and anthocyanin pigment content in the A allocation of metabolic flow for B-ring trihydroxylated anthocyanins catechins observed. Delphinidin, cyanidin, pelargonidin (88.15 mg/100 g FW total) but no other pigments were detected 'Ziyan', delphinidin (70.76 FW) particularly predominant. An analysis catechin eight cultivars indicated that exhibits preference...
ABSTRACT Heat stress is a major factor causing leaf senescence and other physiological damages in cool‐season grass species. Cytokinins ethylene are two plant hormones affecting senescence. The objective of this study was to determine whether foliar application an synthesis inhibitor (aminoethoxyvinylglycine, AVG) synthetic cytokinin ( trans ‐zeatin riboside, t ‐ZR) would enhance creeping bentgrass Agrostis stolonifera L.) tolerance heat associated with the suppression Creeping ‘Penncross’...
In the high‐nutrient, low‐chlorophyll waters of Gulf Alaska, microcosm manipulation experiments were used to assess effect CO 2 on growth and primary production under iron‐limited iron‐replete conditions. As expected, iron had a strong photosynthesis. A modest variable stimulation biomass by (high : 77–122 Pa; low 11‐17 Pa) was observed both conditions, though near limit precision our measurements in slow‐growing low‐iron experiments. Physiological acclimations responsible for changes...
The eastern subarctic North Pacific, an area of high nutrients and low chlorophyll, has been studied with respect to the potential for iron control primary production. geochemistry zinc, a critical micronutrient diatoms, is less well characterized. Total zinc concentrations speciation were measured in near‐surface waters on transects across Pacific Bering Sea. dissolved ranged from 0.10 nmol L −1 1.15 lowest portions both Dissolved was dominated by complexation strong organic ligands whose...
The courage for self-revolution is a fundamental requirement of Marxist political parties, the most distinctive character our Party, powerful driving force profound social transformation, and source vitality that ensures Party’s enduring strength. In new era, advancing necessitates robustly strengthening education in ideals beliefs, intensively promoting fight against corruption, adhering to criticism self-criticism, establishing improving system intra-Party regulations. These measures...
Self-revolution is the most distinctive political characteristic of Communist Party China (CPC) and its greatest strength. General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important thoughts on Party’s self-revolution clearly propose practical requirements advancing with “nine approaches.” These are theoretical crystallization essence era in building new serve as an guide for comprehensive strict governance Party, conduct integrity construction, anti-corruption efforts. To understand self-revolution, one must...
Alkaline phosphatase (AP) plays an important role in the regeneration of bioavailable phosphate from organic compounds and allows phytoplankton growing low inorganic environments to acquire phosphorus. We report isolation, cloning, initial characterization first AP ( ehap1 ) coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi (Lohm.) Hay Mohler. This novel is a major form released cell surface into medium at late exponential stationary phase P‐limited batch cultures but has no significant sequence similarity...
