PHYSIOLOGICAL INHIBITORY EFFECT OF OCS IN ARACHIDONIC ACID-RICH PARIETOCHLORIS INCISA （TREBOUXIOPHYCEAE, CHLOROPHYTA）

Parietochloris incisa is an arachidonic acid-rich snow green alga. The main physiological profiles, such as ash free dry weight (AFDW), chlorophyll, carotenoid, protein and total fatty acids (TFA), in this alga exposed to old culture supernatant (OCS) at the decline phase or its crude ethyl acetate extracts (CEAE) were investigated by using tubular photobioreactors of different diameters. Results showed that both OCS and CEAE had strong inhibitory effect on the above physiological parameters. The longer the culture was exposed to OCS and the more CEAE were added into the algal culture, the more the above physiological properties were inhibited. Arachidonic acid (AA), the dominant component of fatty acids in this alga, was also seriously inhibited with respect to total TFA, AFDW of cell mass, or culture volume, due to a prebable reduction of enzymes activities catalyzing chain elongation from C18:1ω9 to AA. These results incontestably evidenced that some CEAE dissolving substances existing in OCS, like auto-inhibitors, inhibited P. incisa growth through feedback. Hence, any efficient removal of auto-inhibitors from algal culture to decrease their bioactivity could be good for maximal production of desired products like AA.     

The possibility analysis of habitats, origin and reappearance of bloom green alga （Enteromorpha prolifera） on inshore of western Yellow Sea

Combining some information from field investigation of algae along the coastal areas in China and a few pictures materialized from the western Yellow Sea in 2008,authors analyze the necessary conditions and possible water area in China producing a large biomass,some reasons for firestorm,and the possibility of the reappearance of marine bloom green alga Enteromorpha prolifera.The change of habitats and the increase of nutritional levels related to the water area could be considered as direct reasons.It was ...     

An improved PCR method for direct identification of Porphyra （Bangiales, Rhodophyta） using conchocelis based on a RUBISCO intergenic spacer

An improved method of PCR in which the small segment of conchocelis is amplified directly without DNA extraction was used to amplify a RUBISCO intergenic spacer DNA fragment from nine species of red algal genus Porphyra(Bangiales,Rhodophyta),including Porphyra yezoensis(Jiangsu,China),P.haitanensis(Fujian,China),P.oligospermatangia(Qingdao,China),P.katadai(Qingdao,China),P.tenera(Qingdao,China),P.suborboculata(Fujian,China),P.pseudolinearis(Kogendo,Korea),P.linearis(Devon,England),and P.fallax(Seattle,USA)....     

基于正交实验的高含量藻红蛋白紫菜丝状藻体优化调控培养条件研究

丝状藻体在紫菜养殖的人工苗种生产中非常重要,在利用于分离提取高价值的藻红蛋白方面也具有潜在的利用价值。本研究采集了成熟紫菜叶状体的果孢子释放的初始丝状藻体,基于3因子3水平的正交实验设计方案[采用具有分析交互作用的正交表L₂₇(3¹³)],确定了丝状藻体藻红蛋白含量对环境因子的响应以及优化的调控培养条件。结果表明,温度、光照强度和盐度因子对丝状藻体藻红蛋白含量均有显著影响(P≤0.048 1),并且温度和光照强度或盐度因子间存在交互作用(P ≤0.043 1),但光照强度和盐度因子间的交互作用不显著(P=0.469 8)。获得的优化调控培养条件为:温度18 ℃、光强1 500 lx、盐度20或25。优化调控培养条件下的丝状藻体藻红蛋白含量高达64.73 mg/g.dw(平均值±标准偏差SD为58.24±5.07 mg/g.dw)。

光合细菌对盐碱地池塘浮游生物的影响

初步研究了在低洼盐碱地池塘中光合细菌（PSB）施用后对浮游生物的影响。研究结果表明：（1）光合细菌的施入,促进了浮游植物中蓝藻门、绿藻门、隐藻门、裸藻门的数量和生物量的增长;硅藻门总体上有所下降,但小型种属增加;（2）光合细菌的施入,促进了浮游生物中枝角类、轮虫,尤其小型轮虫的增长,而桡足类和原生动物却表现出下降趋势;（3）浮游生物总体上表现为数量增加而生物量下降,但绝大部分种属均有不同程度的增加,而且浮游生物种类趋向于小型化,从而增加了鱼类有效的天然饵料,因而光合细菌的施入,可以调整并优化盐碱地池塘的浮游生物的群落结构。

光质对条斑紫菜自由丝状体生长和生理指标的影响

光质是影响藻类生长发育的重要因子。本文旨在研究栽培型条斑紫菜(Neopyropia yezoensis)自由丝状体在不同光质(白光、红光、蓝光、绿光)下生长率、形态、超微结构、色素含量及抗氧化酶活性的差异。结果显示:培养21 d后,白光显著提高条斑紫菜自由丝状体特定生长率和叶绿素a含量,其次是红光和绿光,蓝光最差。和白光组相比,蓝光组藻体藻红蛋白(PE)含量最高,红光、绿光组藻体藻蓝蛋白(PC)含量较高。白光组藻体正常黑褐色,细胞壁最厚。红、绿光组藻体绿色,直径和细胞壁厚度与白光组相近。蓝光组藻体鲜艳红色,直径最小,细胞壁最薄,且超微结构显示类囊体上质体小球数量最多。蓝光照射后,藻体丙二醛(MDA)含量最高,超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性最低。研究表明,白光最有利于条斑紫菜自由丝状体生长,其次是红光和绿光,蓝光则有不利影响。
