Ici, nous avons examiné si les réponses au cuivre (Cu) et au stress oxydatif varient selon l'origine environnementale ou l'étape du cycle de vie. Nous avons comparé les réponses à des concentrations toxiques de Cu et à des expositions à court terme au peroxyde d'hydrogène de douze souches (huit diploïdes et deux paires de souches où haploïdes and diploïdes partagent la même base génétique) provenant de différentes origines océanographiques. Les réponses mesurées comprenaient le taux de croissance, les proportions de coccolithes malformés/incomplètes (souches diploïdes), la motilité (souches haploïdes), la fluorescence variable (Fv/Fm, une mesure de la santé de photosystème), analyses de cytométrie en flux des pourcentages de cellules vivantes et l'accumulation des dérivés réactives de l'oxygène (DRO), et les activités des enzymes ascorbate peroxydase (AP) et glutathion peroxydase (GP). Bien qu'une importante variabilité ait été observable entre les réponses au stress de ces souches, aucune différence statistique n'a été détectée lorsque les souches ont été regroupées par origines. Dans les deux paires diploïdes/haploïdes, les diploïdes ont montré une plus grande sensibilité a l'inhibition de la croissance par Cu que leurs haploïdes correspondants, bien que cette différence n'était significatif que dans le cas de la paire diploide–haploide qui est issue d'un isolât de la mer de Tasman (RCC1216 / RCC1217). Les diploïdes accumulent rapidement DRO en réponse a une exposition aigue a Cu, alors que l'accumulation de DRO dans haploïdes était beaucoup plus faible. Notablement, il n'y a eu pas des différences dans les DRO induites par Cu entre les diploïdes sensibles et résistantes, ou entre les haploïdes sensibles et résistantes. Les différences de sensibilité au Cu entre les souches ont été reflétées dans les différences d'activité AP constitutive, mais aucune différence entre les souches dans l'activité GP constitutive ou induite n'a été détectée. Les différences dans l'activité AP constitutive, mais non dans l'activité GP induite par Cu, reflètent la sensibilité au Cu. Dans l'ensemble, nos résultats montrent une variabilité intraspécifique élevée parmi les génotypes et les phases du cycle de vie de E. huxleyi, ce qui pourrait refléter en partie les différences dans la tolérance au stress oxydatif.","PeriodicalId":51000,"journal":{"name":"Cryptogamie Algologie","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79827715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we characterized the species diversity of Codium from Croajingolong National Park, Gabo Island Lighthouse Reserve and Cape Howe Marine National Park. The specimens were collected from a wide range of microhabitats during an expedition of the Bush Blitz program, and Codium species were delimited through a combination of molecular analyses of the chloroplast markers tufA and rbcL, and morphological observations. Six species-level clusters were found, corresponding to the native C. australicum, C. harveyi, C. lucasii.1 and C. fragile subsp. novae-zelandiae; and the exotic C. fragile subsp. fragile and C. tenue. The specimens of C. australicum showed variability in the architecture of the thallus that was attributed to the different habitats where they were collected. The utricles of C. harveyi were unusual in having a thick apical cell wall that protruded inwards and had internal projections. The species found in eastern Victoria are typical of the Flindersian and Peronian biogeographic provinces, and the low diversity of Codium species in this region is comparable to that of New South Wales.","PeriodicalId":51000,"journal":{"name":"Cryptogamie Algologie","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83385168","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is morphologically similar to the brackish–water species Achnanthes punctulata, but it lacks a central area on rapheless valve and possesses a large central area on the raphe valve. Psammothidium onufrii is characteristic for tundra thermokarst lakes with moderate mineral content. Psammothidium sacculum previously reported from a few subarctic and arctic locations was found in several lakes of the Kolyma Lowland and of the Magadan District. The frustule ultrastructure of this species is documented for the first time here. The third species, known as Achnanthes obliqua (W. Gregory) Hustedt and transferred here to Psammothidium, is a morphologically distinct and relatively rare diatom occasionally reported from northern regions of Eurasia and Western North America. In Northeastern Siberia it was found in sediments of relatively large shallow lakes with low to moderate mineral content. Detailed morphological characterization of the three Psammothidium species will facilitate their detection in environmental surveys and their use in paleoenvironmental reconstructions.","PeriodicalId":51000,"journal":{"name":"Cryptogamie Algologie","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78463401","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
