Abstract
The present study deals with the metabolomic status of Ulva cells undergoing phase transition (vegetative, determination and differentiation) when exposed to different abiotic conditions. The objective was to study whether metabolite changes occurring during the phase transition reveal any commonality among differential abiotic conditions. The phase transition was followed through microscopic observations and 1H NMR characterization at 0 h, 24 h, and 48 h after the incubation of the thallus under abiotic conditions, such as different salinities (20–35 psu), temperatures (20–35 °C), photoperiods (18 : 6, 12 : 12, and 6 : 18 D/N), light intensities (220, 350, and 500 μmol photons m−2 s−1), nitrate (0.05–0.2 g L−1) and phosphate (0.05–0.2 g L−1) concentrations. Microscopic analysis revealed the role of all abiotic conditions except variable salinity and phosphate concentration in phase transition. NMR analysis revealed that glucose increased in the determination phase [7.58 to 9.62 normalized intensity (AU)] and differentiation phase (5.85 to 6.41 AU) from 20 °C to 25 °C temperature. Coniferyl aldehyde increased in vegetative (5.79 to 6.83 AU) and differentiation (6.66 to 7.40 AU) phases from 20 °C to 30 °C temperature. The highest average (22.97) was found in photoperiod (average range = 0–122.91) and the highest SD (24.73) in salinity (SD range = 1.86–57.04) in region 9 (creatinine and cysteine) of the differentiation phase. A total of 30 metabolites were identified under the categories of sugars, amino acids, and aromatic compounds. The present study will aid in understanding the mechanisms underlying cell differentiation during reproduction. The result may serve as an important reference point for future studies, besides helping in controlling seedling preparation for commercial farming as well as the management of rapid green tide formation.

期刊介绍:
Molecular Omics publishes high-quality research from across the -omics sciences.
Topics include, but are not limited to:
-omics studies to gain mechanistic insight into biological processes – for example, determining the mode of action of a drug or the basis of a particular phenotype, such as drought tolerance
-omics studies for clinical applications with validation, such as finding biomarkers for diagnostics or potential new drug targets
-omics studies looking at the sub-cellular make-up of cells – for example, the subcellular localisation of certain proteins or post-translational modifications or new imaging techniques
-studies presenting new methods and tools to support omics studies, including new spectroscopic/chromatographic techniques, chip-based/array technologies and new classification/data analysis techniques. New methods should be proven and demonstrate an advance in the field.
Molecular Omics only accepts articles of high importance and interest that provide significant new insight into important chemical or biological problems. This could be fundamental research that significantly increases understanding or research that demonstrates clear functional benefits.
Papers reporting new results that could be routinely predicted, do not show a significant improvement over known research, or are of interest only to the specialist in the area are not suitable for publication in Molecular Omics.
