Terrestrial mosses as a substrate and potential host for cyanobacteria, green algae and diatoms
Most studies of terrestrial bryophytes as natural substrates for photosynthetic microorganisms have been performed in the polar regions, where...
-
Invasive submerged plant has a stronger inhibitory effect on epiphytic algae than native plant
The invasion of submerged aquatic plants potentially results in a loss of native biodiversity in these ecosystems. There has been little attention...

The succession of epiphytic microalgae conditions fungal community composition: how chytrids respond to blooms of dinoflagellates
This study aims to investigate the temporal dynamics of the epiphytic protist community on macroalgae, during the summer months, with a specific...

New Perspectives in Sustainable Bioconversion of Lignocellulose to Biofuel by Diatoms
Organic carbon may be obtained sustainably from lignocellulosic biomass; however, the majority of microorganisms, including microalgae, find it...
-
Multiple anthropogenic pressures and local environmental gradients in ponds governing the taxonomic and functional diversity of epiphytic macroinvertebrates
Anthropogenic activities alter community composition, diversity and functioning of macroinvertebrate communities in freshwater ecosystems. Especially...

Host seaweed extracts effect on epiphytic Acrochaetium sp growth and its phycobilipigments content and biological activity
The association of microscopic epiphytic algae with marine macroalgae (seaweeds) hosts is common. One such epiphyte is Acrochaetium species and its...

An ecological analysis of lacustrine diatoms in Costa Rica
In many regions, the utility of diatoms as paleoenvironmental indicators is limited by insufficient ecological knowledge of the local modern species....

The effects of early spring stocking in an agricultural lake: a trophic cascade hypothesis
Lake Jošava (Croatia) is a shallow reservoir surrounded by agricultural land. In the present study, the trophic cascade was tested by examining the...

A tripartite model system for Southern Ocean diatom-bacterial interactions reveals the coexistence of competing symbiotic strategies
Southern Ocean (SO) diatoms play an important role in global carbon flux, and their influence on carbon export is directly linked to interactions...
