In aquatic ecosystems, unicellular algae form the basis of the food webs. Theoretical and
experimental studies have demonstrated that one of the mechanisms that maintain high …

Microalgae can be cultivated to support wastewater treatment or produce human and animal
feed, fuels, and high value metabolites (eg cosmetics). However, the low biomass …

Only about 100 natural products are known to contain a nitrogen–sulfur (N–S) bond. This
review thoroughly categorizes N–S bond-containing compounds by structural class …

Concerted effort in ecology is focused on developing synthetic frameworks that quantify
general trends between diversity of organismal functional traits and ecosystem functioning …

Mixotrophic cultivation is one potential mode for microalgae production, and an
economically acceptable and environmentally sustainable organic carbon source is …

Industry, transport and unsustainable agriculture result in the increased quantity of
wastewater, release of nutrients and emission of carbon dioxide that promotes …

The green alga Scenedesmus obliquus can form inducible defensive morphs under grazing
threat. Costs and trade-offs of inducible defense are expected to accompany the benefits of …

Antibiotic norfloxacin (NOR) has recently been demonstrated to affect the swimming
behavior of zooplankton species and phytoplankton-zooplankton interactions, which may …

The first step in the evolution of complex multicellular organisms involves single cells
forming a cooperative group. Consequently, to understand multicellularity, we need to …

Morphological responses of green algae to submerged macrophytes were rarely studied,
and the potential active substances played roles in the interaction were little known …
