If everything is everywhere, do they share a common gene pool?Linda K Medlin
Alfred Wegener Institute, Am Handelshafen 12, D27570 Bremerhaven, Germany
Gene 406:180-3. 2007..Examples are present to document the range of biogeography that has been reported in the phytoplankton and a hypothesis as to how this relates to species evolution on a geological time scale is provided...
Picobiliphytes: a marine picoplanktonic algal group with unknown affinities to other eukaryotesFabrice Not
Station Biologique de Roscoff, UMR 7144 CNRS and Université Pierre et Marie Curie, Boîte Postale 74, 29682 Roscoff Cedex, France
Science 315:253-5. 2007..This suggests that they may be secondary endosymbiotic algae. Pending the isolation of living cells and their formal description, these algae have been termed picobiliphytes...
Picoeukaryotic plankton diversity at the Helgoland time series site as assessed by three molecular methodsL K Medlin
Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, Am Handelshafen 12, D 27570, Bremerhaven, Germany
Microb Ecol 52:53-71. 2006..Microarray analysis supported the clone library data and offered a faster means of community analysis, which can be performed with similar accuracy and with higher throughput for a more in-depth analysis...
Ribosomal DNA sequence variation among sympatric strains of the Cyclotella meneghiniana complex (Bacillariophyceae) reveals cryptic diversityBank Beszteri
Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, Am Handelshafen 12, 27570 Bremerhaven, Germany
Protist 156:317-33. 2005..The morphological features traditionally used for species identification in this group cannot distinguish these putative cryptic species...
Feasibility of assessing the community composition of prasinophytes at the Helgoland Roads sampling site with a DNA microarrayChristine Gescher
Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, Am Handelshafen 12, 27570 Bremerhaven, Germany
Appl Environ Microbiol 74:5305-16. 2008..The study here demonstrates the potential of DNA microarrays to be applied as a tool for quick general monitoring of this important picoplanktonic algal group...
Pseudo-cryptic speciation in coccolithophoresAlberto G Saez
Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Biology, Department of Biological Oceanography, Am Handelshafen 12, D 27570 Bremerhaven, Germany
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 100:7163-8. 2003..Our results also provide strong support for the use of fine scale morphological characters of coccoliths in the fossil record to improve biostratigraphic resolution and paleoceanographic data retrieval...
Development and adaptation of a multiprobe biosensor for the use in a semi-automated device for the detection of toxic algaeSonja Diercks
Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, Am Handelshafen 12, 27570 Bremerhaven, Germany
Biosens Bioelectron 23:1527-33. 2008..The detection of the toxic algae is based on a sandwich hybridisation and an electrochemical detection method...
Feasibility of transferring fluorescent in situ hybridization probes to an 18S rRNA gene phylochip and mapping of signal intensitiesKatja Metfies
Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, Am Handelshafen 12, D 27570 Bremerhaven, Germany
Appl Environ Microbiol 74:2814-21. 2008..Target size was a minor problem, whereas for 16S rRNA molecules target size rather than probe site was important...
phylochipanalyser - a program for analysing hierarchical probe setsKatja Metfies
Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, Am Handelshafen 12, 27570 Bremerhaven, Germany, Urnenfelderstraße 9, 85051 Ingolstadt, Germany
Mol Ecol Resour 8:99-102. 2008..Here, we present a computer program, phylo-chipanalyser, for the hierarchy editing and the evaluation of phylochip data generated from hierarchical probe sets...
Electrochemical detection of the toxic dinoflagellate Alexandrium ostenfeldii with a DNA-biosensorKatja Metfies
Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, Am Handelshafen 12, 27570 Bremerhaven, Germany
Biosens Bioelectron 20:1349-57. 2005....
The application of a molecular clock based on molecular sequences and the fossil record to explain biogeographic distributions within the Alexandrium tamarense "species complex" (Dinophyceae)Uwe John
, Bremerhaven, Germany
Mol Biol Evol 20:1015-27. 2003....
The systematic position of the parasitoid marine dinoflagellate Paulsenella vonstoschii (Dinophyceae) inferred from nuclear-encoded small subunit ribosomal DNAStefanie F Kühn
Department of Marine Botany FB2, University of Bremen, Leobener Strasse NW2, D 28359 Bremen, Germany
Protist 156:393-8. 2005..This suggests that Paulsenella also belongs to the order Peridiniales and its earlier description as gymnodinioid and athecate has to be revised...
Design and testing of ITS probes for distinguishing Phaeocystis speciesMartin Lange
State Education and Research Center for Agriculture, Viticulture and Horticulture, Germany
Protist 153:275-82. 2002..Both probes were labelled with digoxigenin and tested in a dot blot analysis against PCR products from 23 Phaeocystis species. Only the two cold water species or Phaeocystis pouchetii were, respectively, labelled by their specific probe...
