Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chrysophytes are beautiful and delicate organisms living mostly in freshwater. They are pivotal for studies of protistan evolution, studies of food web dynamics in oligotrophic freshwater ecosystems, and for assessment of environmental degradation resulting from eutrophication and acid rain. They also represent excellent model cellular systems for studying processes inherent in basic metabolism, biomineralization, endo- and exocytosis and macro-assembly of cell surface layers. This book gives a broad overview of chrysophytes and contains chapters by leading experts organized under the themes of phylogeny, systematics and evolution; development, physiology, and nutrition; and ecology, paleoecology, and reproduction. The book contains major contributions towards a reorganization of chrysophyte systematics, plus comprehensive reviews of chrysophyte basic metabolism, biomineralization and siliceous scale deposition, ecology, paleoecology, and a history of chrysophyte research. Contributors present reviews of the literature in their particular area and also present ideas for future research.

This book was released on 2007-10-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume deals with the Synurophyceae, a group of silica scaled chrysophyte algae. Taxonomy within this class is based on the ultrastructure of the silica scales and bristles, and electron microscopy is in most cases necessary for the identification. Even though the 128 taxa occurring in Europe are emphasized and details of their distribution are given, the volume includes all taxa described worldwide. Thus it is possible to identify all 212 taxa with a high degree of certainty (i.e., 180 taxa of Mallomonas, 30 taxa of Synura, plus the single species of Chrysodidymus and Tessellaria). The importance of this book lies in four main fields: It can be used for the identification of synurophycean taxa in all parts of the world. It will be of particular significance in phytoplankton investigations on diversity and ecology of lakes and ponds. Many species can serve as ecological indicators, and the species-specific silica scales and cysts preserved in sediments can be useful paleobiological indicators for reconstructing a wide variety of human influences on aquatic ecosystems, including acidification, eutrophication and climate change. Last but not least, the book gives a solid basis for further taxonomical studies based on gene sequences. This is the first modern world-comprehensive book on the subject. It will be indispensable for phycologists, but should also find its way to general botanical libraries.

Book excerpt: This 1986 book presents an in-depth treatment of the biology of chrysophytes, providing a strong foundation towards understanding today's living forms of chrysophyte algae and illuminating the probable aquatic ecosystems of the past. The papers are from the 1953 First International Chrysophyte Symposium held at the University of North Dakota.
Download or read book The Haptophyte Algae written by J. C. Green and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The planktonic algae known as the Haptophyta occur in all the world's oceans, sometimes occurring in 'blooms' so dense that they can be detected by satellites. Some species produce sulphur compounds that may contribute to the problem of acid rain. Others strongly affect the carbon dioxide balance between the ocean and the atmosphere, thus becoming linked to the proposed 'greenhouse effect', and others produce powerful poisons responsible for killing fish and other marine life. This is the first book to deal comprehensively with this important group of unicellular organisms, and each chapter has been contributed by an expert in the field. The topics covered include all major aspects of haptophyte biology, including structure, biochemistry, ecology, climatological and economic importance, fossil record, evolution, and systematics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent advances in ultrastructural and molecular research have provided new understandings of relationships of traditional chrysophytes, and also many new genera have been described in the last two decades. In this encyclopedia 201 genera of chrysophytes known to date (plus numerous synonyms) are surveyed, namely 110 genera of Chrysophyceae sensu stricto and 58 additional genera, many of which have previously been accommodated in the Chrysophyceae, but are now placed in other classes of the Chromophyta/Heterokonta [i.e., Synurophyceae (8 genera), Dictyochophyceae (13 genera), Pelagophyceae (10 genera), Phaeothamniophyceae (16 genera) and "Bicosoecophyceae" (11 genera)]. Also treated are 33 insufficiently known genera of uncertain affinity, which probably do not belong to the Chrysophyceae sensu stricto, but which have often been assigned to this class (e.g., among others, genera included in the family Aurosphaeraceae and in the orders Chrysomeridales and Parmales). The concept of classification presented in this book is very different from that in the last detailed monographs on freshwater Chrysophyceae by Bourrelly (1981) and Starmach (1985). We also include information on more than 80 genera which have not yet been treated by these authors. Almost 50 of these are marine and are now mostly classified in the Dictyochophyceae, Pelagophyceae and "Bicosoecophyceae", or belonging to the genera of uncertain chrysophyte affiliation. In comparison with these previous monographs a number of colourless flagellates (e.g., the choanoflagellates that were included in the Chrysophyceae as a separate subclass, Craspedomonadophycidae), have been taken away from this class, since they were shown to be related to different protistan lineages with no close relationships to heterokonts. This volume is the result of an ambitious project, entitled "Encyclopedia of Algal genera" launched back in 1988 by Bruce Parker and sponsored by the Phycological Society of America. A large team of coeditors and contributors was set down, so that all groups of algae could be covered. After some years, however, the project ran into difficulties and it became increasingly clear that it could not be completed so that in 1999 it was finally abandoned. The manuscripts, in different states of completeness, were handed over to the Phycological Society of America, who, unfortunately, did not find it possible to continue the project and bring it to conclusion (publication). The chrysophyte manuscripts, however, were almost complete and newly revised, and we found that all our work, together with that of the other chrysophyte contributors, should not be wasted, but published as a separate chrysophyte encyclopedia in Bibliotheca Phycologica. The editors and contributors thank PSA who supported the idea and gave the necessary permissions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several topics will be given. Monophyly of the coccolithophorids: In well accepted taxonomic system of the haptophytes, e.g. Parke and Green 1976, coccolithophorids are placed in two orders, Isochrysidales and Coccosphaerales. We have analysed molecular phylogeny of rbcL (collaboration with Drs. Fujiwara and Minaka) and 18SrDNA, which suggest monophyly of the coccolithophorids. Isochrysis, non-coccolith-bearing haptophyte form a clade with Gephyrocapsa oceanica and Emiliania huxleyi, suggesting secondary loss of coccolith production in this genus. Taxonomic system of the Haptophyta should be reconsidered as to adapt as much as possible to phylogenetic relationships.
