Abstract
The geographical distribution of organisms, such as the foundation kelp species Saccharina latissima, is mainly driven by temperature. Globally increasing sea surface temperature and further intensification of marine heatwaves have already resulted in local extinction of kelp populations worldwide. In the present study, we investigated temporal variation in the thermal susceptibility of S. latissima by assessing stress responses of field sporophytes sampled from Helgoland (German Bight) in June 2018, August 2018 and August 2019 in heatwave scenarios. We analyzed survival, growth, maximum quantum yield of photosystem II (Fv/Fm) and pigment composition. Survival decreased with increasing environmental and experimental temperatures. Growth revealed seasonal patterns, being higher in June than in August, whereas Fv/Fm decreased with increasing temperature, independent of the sampling time. We found an increase in the concentration of light harvesting pigments and in the de‐epoxidation state of the xanthophyll cycle with higher treatment temperature. This pattern was even more pronounced at higher environmental temperature prior to the experiment (June 2018 < August 2019 < August 2018). Our results show that the thermal tolerance of S. latissima towards heatwaves in summer is significantly affected by the environmental history it previously experienced.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
