Synthesis of Lipid During Photosynthesis by Phytoplankton of the Southern Ocean | Andrew E Smith

; | Date: |
11 Jan 1980 | Journal: | Science, 207 (4427), 197-199 | Abstract: | Assimilation of carbon-14 labeled bicarbonate into photosynthetic products was measured at four stations in the Southern Ocean. Phytoplankton populations incorporated as much as 80 percent of the fixed carbon into lipid under conditions of low temperatures (-0.2 degrees to -1.8 degrees C) and low light intensities. At higher temperatures (+0.3 degrees to +0.8 degrees C) and higher light intensities, incorporation into lipid accounted for less than 20 percent of the fixed carbon, synthesis of polysaccharide and protein being more prominent. | Source: | PubMed, pmid17809104 doi: 10.1126/science.207.4427.197 | Services: | Forum | Review | Favorites |
