microorganisms from the late precambrian of central australia.an assemblage of structurally and organically well preserved microorganisms, interpreted as both green and blue-green algae, has been found in chert facies of the bitter springs limestone from the upper precambrian of central australia. this appears to be the earliest known occurrence of green algae in the fossil record. these organisms are among the oldest known multicellular and unicellular fossils exhibiting distinct histological preservation.196517742361
significance of the gunflint (precambrian) microflora: photosynthetic oxygen may have had important local effects before becoming a major atmospheric gas.several categories of biological microstructures 1.9+/- billion years old are here described, illustrated, and referred to a group of early thallophytes that includes the thread bacteria and the blue-green algae. these microstructures were almost surely autotrophic and in the line of evolution toward green-plant photosynthesis, if not themselves oxygen producers. geochemical evidence has been interpreted by some to imply that the contemporaneous atmosphere was essentially anoxygenic (reducing), ...196517773767
blue-green algae: fine structure of the gas vacuoles.the gas vacuoles seen in several species of blue-green algae under the light microscope are shown by electron microscopy to correspond to packed arrays of cylindrical, electron-transparent vesicles. single vesicles average 75 millimicrons in diameter, range from 0.2 micron to 1.0 micron in length, have conical ends, and are bounded by a single membrane 2 millimicrons wide. the reversible disappearance of gas vacuoles induced by sudden application of pressure is accompanied by a reversible collap ...196517776627

fatty acids in eleven species of blue-green algae: geochemical significance.analyses of the total lipids of 11 species of blue-green algae showed a simple but qualitatively variable fatty acid composition. the species can be grouped in three categories on the basis of their oleic, linoleic, and linolenic acid content. one species was unusual in that the ten-carbon acid accounts for one-half of its total fatty acid. branched chain acids are absent in the algae, but are major components of marine bacteria. the geochemical significance of the data is discussed.196717807956
relationship between the absorption and emission spectra and the "red drop" in the action spectra of fluorescence in vivo.the stepanov equation, relating the intensity of emission, f(e)(v), at a given frequency, and that of absorption, k(v), at the same frequency, is applied, in its modified form (see equation 3 in text) to suspensions of chlorella, porphyridium, and anacystis and to chlorophyll solutions. this application can reveal whether the yield of fluorescence, phi(v), is constant, or changes with frequency. in chlorella (green alga) a sharp drop of phi(v) is indicated towards the lower frequencies (longer w ...196719431346
