Metabarcoding of lake benthic diatoms: from structure assemblages to ecological assessment
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Hydrobiologia"
DOI: 10.1007/s10750-017-3381-2
Abstract: Benthic diatoms are relevant indicators of the ecological status of the littoral zone of lakes. Their use as bio-indicators is based on their morphological identification at species level using microscopy which is time consuming, requires… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/09670262.2017.1397197
Abstract: ABSTRACT Benthic diatoms are dominant primary producers in intertidal marine sediments, which are characterized by widely fluctuating and often extreme light conditions. To cope with sudden increases in light intensity, benthic diatoms display both behavioural… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0179422
Abstract: Benthic diatoms isolated from tidal flats in the west coast of Korea were identified through both traditional morphological method and molecular phylogenetic method for methodological comparison. For the molecular phylogenetic analyses, we sequenced the 18S… read more here.

DOI: 10.1590/0001-3765201820170721
Abstract: Exopolysaccharide (EPS) of two benthic diatoms, Amphora sp. and Stauroneis sp., with different biofilm formation abilities were investigated. The ratio of suspension-cells/biofilm-cells was employed to indicate the diatom biofilm formation abilities. The soluble EPS from… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmars.2018.00408
Abstract: Little is known about the ecosystem effects of locally adapted populations. The filter feeding copepod Eurytemora affinis is an abundant and important zooplankton in coastal waters that consist of a cryptic species complex with locally… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.805694
Abstract: Aquatic ecosystems are frequently overlooked as fungal habitats, although there is increasing evidence that their diversity and ecological importance are greater than previously considered. Aquatic fungi are critical and abundant components of nutrient cycling and… read more here.

Benthic Diatoms on Sheltered Coastal Soft Bottoms (Baltic Sea)—Seasonal Community Production and Respiration
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Journal of Marine Science and Engineering"
DOI: 10.3390/jmse9090949
Abstract: Benthic diatom communities dominate sheltered shallow inner coastal waters of the atidal Southern Baltic Sea. However, their photosynthetic oxygen production and respiratory oxygen consumption is rarely evaluated. In the Baltic Sea carbon budget benthic diatom… read more here.

DOI: 10.6084/m9.figshare.5432869.v1
Abstract: We performed culture experiments using intertidal benthic diatoms collected from a river mouth tidal flat (Fujimae Tidal Flats, Nagoya, Japan) to study their responses to salinity. The six species examined were Navicula aff. erifuga, Karayevia… read more here.
