heterotrophic growth of blue-gren algae in dim light. | a unicellular blue-green alga, agmenellum quadruplicatum, and a filamentous blue-green alga, lyngbya lagerheimíi, were grown heterotrophically in dim light with glucose as major source of carbon and possibly energy. the dim-light conditions did not support autotrophic growth. the two blue-green algae appeared to have the same metabolic block, namely an incomplete tricarboxylic acid cycle, as has been found in other obligately phototrophic blue-green algae. under dim-light conditions, glucose mad ... | 1971 | 4994034 |
endogenous dark respiration of the blue-green alga, plectonema boryanum. | endogenous dark respiration in the blue-green alga plectonema boryanum is markedly affected by preincubation in the light: it can be increased from a basal rate of 5 nmoles of o(2) to 55 nmoles of o(2) per mg of cell protein per min after exposure of the cells to light for 8 to 10 hr. under conditions of enhanced dark respiration, cyanophage multiplication in the dark increases drastically and approaches the cyanophage yields obtained in photosynthesizing plectonema cells. this implies that the ... | 1971 | 4994602 |

fatty acids in blue-green algae: possible relation to phylogenetic position. | analyses of the lipids in five species of blue-green algae show that the fatty acids are largely the c(16) and c(18) acids. the only alga that could be grown heterotrophically, chlorogloea, formed the triply unsaturated c(18) acid in the light but only the doubly unsaturated c(18) acid in the dark. examination of these results and the results of others suggest that, except for one species, the more highly unsaturated acids are found in the morphologically more complex algae. the fatty acid compo ... | 1968 | 5644061 |

shear-oriented microfibrils in the mucilaginous investments of two motile oscillatoriacean blue-green algae. | trichomes of two oscillatoriacean blue-green algae execute screw-like gliding motion, but the two organisms differ from each other with respect to the screw sense of motion. electron microscopy of serial longitudinal sections reveals extracellular microfibrils which lie roughly parallel to stream-lines at the surface of each organism. the author proposes that the microfibrils are oriented by shear in a zone just external to the outer unit membrane-like component of the cell wall. | 1969 | 5764337 |
