PDMS filter structures for size-dependent larval sorting and on-chip egg extraction of C. elegans

Martinus Gijs, Furkan Ayhan, Hüseyin Baris Atakan

C. elegans-based assays require age-synchronized populations prior to experimentation to achieve standardized sets of worm populations, due to which age-induced heterogeneous phenotyping effects can be avoided. There have been several approaches to synchro ...

Heterotrophic Foraminifera Capable of Inorganic Nitrogen Assimilation

Anders Meibom, Charlotte Madeleine Nicole Lekieffre, Emmanuelle Geslin

Nitrogen availability often limits biological productivity in marine systems, where inorganic nitrogen, such as ammonium is assimilated into the food web by bacteria and photoautotrophic eukaryotes. Recently, ammonium assimilation was observed in kleptopla ...

Viral Transfer and Inactivation through Zooplankton Trophic Interactions

Tamar Kohn, Virginie Bachmann, Xavier Fernandez Cassi, Margot Ninon Lauren Olive

Waterborne viruses are responsible for numerous diseases and are abundant in aquatic systems. Understanding the fate of viruses in natural systems has important implications for human health. This research quantifies the uptake of bacteriophage T4 and the ...

Ammonium is the preferred source of nitrogen for planktonic foraminifer and their dinoflagellate symbionts

Anders Meibom, Charlotte Madeleine Nicole Lekieffre, Emmanuelle Geslin

The symbiotic planktonic foraminiferaOrbulina universainhabits open ocean oligotrophic ecosystems where dissolved nutrients are scarce and often limit biological productivity. It has previously been proposed thatO. universameets its nitrogen (N) requiremen ...

Heterotrophy in the earliest gut: a single-cell view of heterotrophic carbon and nitrogen assimilation in sponge-microbe symbioses

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig

Sponges are the oldest known extant animal-microbe symbiosis. These ubiquitous benthic animals play an important role in marine ecosystems in the cycling of dissolved organic matter (DOM), the largest source of organic matter on Earth. The conventional vie ...

Control of Waterborne Human Viruses by Indigenous Bacteria and Protists Is Influenced by Temperature, Virus Type, and Microbial Species

Tamar Kohn, Anna Carratala Ripolles, Margot Ninon Lauren Olive

Human viruses are ubiquitous contaminants in surface waters, where they can persist over extended periods of time. Among the factors governing their environmental persistence, the control (removal or inactivation) by microorganisms remains poorly understoo ...

Community-Level Responses to Iron Availability in Open Ocean Plankton Ecosystems

Anna Carratala Ripolles

Predicting responses of plankton to variations in essential nutrients is hampered by limited in situ measurements, a poor understanding of community composition, and the lack of reference gene catalogs for key taxa. Iron is a key driver of plankton dynamic ...

The role of mixing in controlling resource availability and phytoplankton community composition

Bieito Fernandez Castro, Emilio Marañón

We investigate the role of mixing, through its effect on nutrient and light availability, as a driver of phytoplankton community composition in the context of Margalef’s mandala. Data on microstructure turbulence, irradiance, new nitrogen supply and phytop ...
