    Abstract Rhizochromulina marina is a unicellular amoeboid alga capable of forming flagellate cells; it is a single validly named species in the genus. Besides, there are numerous environmental sequences and undescribed strains designated as Rhizochromulina sp. or R. marina. The biogeography of the genus is understudied: rhizochromulines from the Indian, Southern, and Arctic Oceans are unknown. Here, we present the description of Rhizochromulina sp. B44, which was for the first time isolated from an arctic habitat. Biofilms of this microalga grow at the bottom of a culture vessel, where neighbouring amoeboid cells form associations through a common network of pseudopodia, i.e. meroplasmodia. Pseudopodia branch, anastomose mainly during meroplasmodia formation, and are supported by microtubules that arise from the perinuclear zone. Actin filaments are localized in the cytoplasm and can be revealed only near the bases of pseudopodia. We succeeded in inducing the transformation of amoeboid cells into flagellates using a prolonged agitation of cultures. Morphological and molecular analyses revealed that the studied strain is most closely related to the type strain of R. marina. At the same time, 18S rDNA sequences of early branching-off rhizochromulinids differ significantly from Rhizochromulina sp. B44, suggesting a high divergence at the genus level.

    Abstract: In the present work advances and limitations in the application of Fe(III)-oxalate complexes (namely, [Fe(Ox)3]³⁻) to the photodegradation of a model persistent organic contaminant - 2,4-dichlorophenoxybutanoic acid (2,4-DB) in neutral aqueous solutions ... ...

    Abstract In the present work advances and limitations in the application of Fe(III)-oxalate complexes (namely, [Fe(Ox)3]³⁻) to the photodegradation of a model persistent organic contaminant - 2,4-dichlorophenoxybutanoic acid (2,4-DB) in neutral aqueous solutions were systematically investigated for the first time. It has been shown that the efficiency of [Fe(Ox)3]³⁻ system greatly depends on the initial concentrations of oxalate ion due to the fast consumption of the ligand during photodegradation process leading to the formation of photochemically less active Fe(III) species. Efficiency of Fe(Ox)3³⁻ system normalized to UVA absorption at the excitation wavelength is practically independent on [Fe(III)]. Thus, it is highly probable that concentrations of Fe(III) as low as < 10⁻⁵ M could be applied in water treatment procedures using reactors with very long optical path. The system also keeps high efficiency at low concentration of pollutant (<10⁻⁵ M) though this results in higher relative consumption rate of Fe(III) and oxalate ions.

    Abstract Dinoflagellates are an ecologically important group of aquatic single-cell eukaryotes. At the present time relatively little is known about physiological features that determine the role of these protists in natural ecosystems. Lack of knowledge on the diversity, structure, and functioning of dinoflagellate ion channels significantly hampers the interpretation of physiological reactions and adaptations in these microorganisms. We performed the analysis of the translated transcriptome databases that belong to two strains of the dinoflagellate Prorocentrum minimum in order to identify the members of the voltage-gated cation channels superfamily. We found out that transcriptomes of these potentially toxic microorganisms contained the homologues of: 1) inwardly rectifying potassium channels (K(ir)), 2) voltage-gated potassium channels (K(v)), 3) calcium-activated potassium channels (K(Ca)), 4) cyclic nucleotide-gated channels (EAG and HCN/CNG), 5) TRPV and TRPP channels, 6) two-pore calcium channels TPC, 7) voltage-gated sodium (Na(v)) and calcium (Ca(v)) channels, 8) voltage-gated proton channels (H(v)).

    Abstract Ecdysis, the process of extensive cell covering rearrangement, represents a remarkable physiological trait of dinoflagellates. It is involved in the regulation of the population and bloom dynamics of these microorganisms, since it is required for the formation of their thin-walled cysts. This study presents laboratory data on ecdysis in Prorocentrum cordatum, a harmful dinoflagellate species of high environmental significance. We studied external stressors triggering this process and changes in the cell ultrastructure accompanying it. Our experiments showed that mass ecdysis and formation of cysts in P. cordatum could be induced by centrifugation, temperature decrease, changes in salinity, and treatment by 2,6-dichlorobenzonitrile, whereas temperature increase, changes in pH and treatment by tetracycline did not have this effect. Obtained cysts of P. cordatum did not contain the pellicular layer and were formed in the end of the first stage of this process, i.e. removal of the plasma membrane and the outer amphiesmal vesicle membrane, whereas its second stage, removal of theca, represented excystment. Based on our findings, we conclude that such cysts can be attributed to thecate cysts and suggest P. cordatum as a promising model organism for the investigation of cellular and molecular aspects of ecdysis in dinoflagellates.
