Occurrence and metabolism of dulcitol and sorbitol in the marine red alga Bostrychia scorpioides (Huds.) Mont. (Ceramiales : Rhodomelaceae) were investigated. Both hexitols are rapidly 14C-labelled during photosynthesis in a HlaCO3-seawater medium and are accumulated at comparable rates. The absolut

Dark respiration in the red macroalga Chondrus crispus was studied under a variety of conditions. The components of respiration were examined using selective inhibitors in order to characterise pathways of respiration and examine regulation of respiration in marine macroalgae. In comparison to resp
Enzyme activities of ribulose-l,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (RUBPCase) and chemoautotrophic CO2 fixation were measured during batch growth of six marine nitrifying bacteria. The NH4-oxidizer Nitrosococcus oceanus and the NOz-oxidizer Nitrococcus mobilis were also examined during exponential growth at
When the marine opisthobranchiate slug Hermaea bifida Mont. is incubated in a H14CO3-seawater medium in the light, a considerable net gain of 14C-assimilates is observed. Electron microscopic control provided evidence that this 14C-fixation is due to photosynthesis by chloroplasts (= rhodoplasts) en
