Sequestered Chloroplasts In The Benthic Foraminifer Haynesina Germanica: Cellular Organization, Oxygen Fluxes And Potential Ecological Implications

Charlotte Madeleine Nicole Lekieffre, Emmanuelle Geslin

Haynesina germanica is a coastal benthic foraminifer known to sequester chloroplasts from benthic pennate diatoms. This study investigates its cellular organization, as well as the oxygen consumption and production rates under dark and light conditions. Th ...

When neighbours become competitors - Autotrophic assimilation rates of individual symbionts depend on local density when Stylophora pistillata is regularly fed

Anders Meibom, Thomas Krüger, Maoz Fine

The symbiosis between dinoflagellate microalgae and their cnidarian host represents the fundamental mechanism that allows zooxanthellate corals to access the inorganic nutrient pool of the surrounding seawater and conserve and recycle nutrients within thei ...

NanoSIMS applied to the study of foraminifera

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Charlotte Madeleine Nicole Lekieffre, Emmanuelle Geslin

NanoSIMS (Nanoscale Secondary-Ion Mass Spectrometry) is a powerful analytical technique that allows quantitative, subcellular imaging of incorporation and transfer of isotopically labeled compounds and metabolites in biological tissue (Hoppe et al., 2013). ...

Efficient photosynthesis of carbon monoxide from CO2 using perovskite photovoltaics

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Fabrizio Giordano, Jingshan Luo, Antonio Abate, Matthew Thomas Mayer, Marcel Roland Schreier, Ludmilla Steier

Artificial photosynthesis, mimicking nature in its efforts to store solar energy, has received considerable attention from the research community. Most of these attempts target the production of H-2 as a fuel and our group recently demonstrated solar-to-hy ...

Multiple stressor effects in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii - Toward understanding mechanisms of interaction between effects of ultraviolet radiation and chemical pollutants

Renata Behra

The effects of chemical pollutants and environmental stressors, such as ultraviolet radiation (UVR), can interact when organisms are simultaneously exposed, resulting in higher (synergistic) or lower (antagonistic) multiple stressor effects than expected b ...

Experimental warming interacts with soil moisture to discriminate plant responses in an ombrotrophic peatland

Alexandre Buttler, Pierre Rémi Mariotte, Edward Mitchell, Luca Bragazza, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Bjorn Jozef Maria Robroek, Cédric Pochelon

QuestionA better understanding of the response of Sphagnum mosses and associated vascular plants to climate warming is relevant for predicting the carbon balance of peatlands in a warmer world. Open-top chambers (OTCs) have been used to investigate the eff ...

Plant nanobionics approach to augment photosynthesis and biochemical sensing

Ardemis Anoush Boghossian

The interface between plant organelles and non-biological nanostructures has the potential to impart organelles with new and enhanced functions. Here, we show that single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) passively transport and irreversibly localize within ...

The Response of the Mediterranean Gorgonian Eunicella singularis to Thermal Stress Is Independent of Its Nutritional Regime

Alexandre Buttler, Leïla Ezzat

Over the last few decades, sessile benthic organisms from the Mediterranean Sea have suffered from the global warming of the world's oceans, and several mass mortality events were observed during warm summers. It has been hypothesized that mortality could ...

Carbon Dioxide as the C1 Source for Direct C−H Functionalization of Aromatic Heterocycles

Xile Hu, Oleg Vechorkin, Nathalie Hirt

A simple and straightforward method has been developed for the direct carboxylation of aromatic heterocylces such as oxazoles, thiazoles, and oxadiazoles using CO2 as the C1 source. The reactions require no metal catalyst and only Cs2CO3 as the base. A goo ...

Electrochemical Investigation of the O-2(g),Ni/YSZ System Using Cyclic Voltammetry

Christos Comninellis, Cyril Falgairette

Cyclic voltammetry was used for the electrochemical study of a Ni thin film (similar to 880 nm) deposited on an yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) solid electrolyte pellet at temperatures between 350 and 450 degrees C at 20 kPa O-2 and atmospheric pressure. ...
