A clone of the diatom Asterionella formosa was studied to determine the ability of the species to photoacclimate as they were passed through a light gradient at varying rates. 1988. Shape Cells linear and bilobate in valve view, with a larger, spatulate 'head pole' and a smaller spatulate 'foot pole'. In lakes, the freshwater diatom Asterionella formosa Hassall is one of the principal bloom-forming diatom species that are inedible to zooplankton (13, 25) and is known to be susceptible to chytrid parasitism (9, 26).formosa A. is infected by three well-described chytrid species, Rhizophydium planktonicum Canter emend., Zygorhizidium The following relationships have been collated from the published literature (see 'References'). Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences. Asterionella formosa is a common diatom in the plankton of lakes and slow moving rivers.

In the present study, we focussed on Asterionella formosa Hassall, a cosmopolitan freshwater pennate diatom that forms stellate colonies of generally four to 8 cells by clonal reproduction. The sinking rates of colonies of a laboratory strain of Asterionella formosa were measured over a 5-year period, during which time mean cell length and cell volume reduced by almost an order of magnitude and the typical, stellate arrangement of eight-celled colonies was eventually lost.

In order to explain differences in the growth and reproduction of Daphnia pulicaria fed various freshwater diatoms, we measured ingestion rates and carbon incorporation for six cultured diatom species: the single-celled Stephanodiscus hantzschii, Stephanodiscus minutulus and Cyclotella meneghiniana, and the colony-forming Asterionella formosa, Fragilaria capucina and Fragilaria sp. Given the high diversity among diatoms, we studied the two marine model diatoms—Thalassiosira pseudonana and Phaeodactylum tricornutum, a freshwater diatom, Asterionella formosa, and Navicula pelliculosa—found in fresh- and sea-water environments. Cell Size: Length (apical axis) 30-150um. Cell Size: Length 30-150um. Saros, J.E., Michel, T.J., Interlandi, S.J.

Sm. in oligotrophic alpine lakes: implications for recent phytoplankton community reorganizations. In girdle view cells expand towards both ends of the valve. The top-down effects of parasi-tism result in … The valves of Asterionella are symmetric to the apical axis and asymmetric to the transapical axis. Süßwasserflora Mitteleuropas. Figure 20. 55: 357–367. 576 pp, 2003. Devlen Dykeman. ... Asterionella formosa. Here, we isolated an obligate chytrid parasite (CCAP 4086/1) on the freshwater bloom-forming diatom Asterionella formosa and characterized its infectious cycle under controlled conditions. Typically, this diatom is found in plankton (Patrick and Reimer 1966). As a model, we brought into stable laboratory culture a pairing between the bloom-forming diatom Asterionella formosa and a pathogenic chytrid identified as Rhizophydium planktonicum, isolated from Pavin Lake, France. The kQ of A. formosa compared to C. meneghiniana found in long‐term semicontinuous culture indicates that A. formosa is almost an order of magnitude more efficient at using internal phosphate for growth. (1988), over a five-year period, sinking rates of a laboratory strain ofAsterionella formosa were affected by the loss of the stellate arrangement of colonies. IFCB images Asterionella formosa Hass is a characteristic member of the phytoplankton of nutrient-rich temperate lakes, where it is a major component of the diatom spring bloom. , Labaj A.L., Paterson A.M., Smol J.P. 2016, 2018 ) Hostigates!
