Sexual reproduction in Odontella regia (Schultze) Simonsen 1974 (Bacillariophyta)
(Current Science Association, 2011)
The sequence of spermatogenesis and sperm cell count of Odontella regia (Schultze) Simonsen from Indian waters is reported. The sequence of events in the spermatogenesis producing 16 spermatogonia following four differentiating ...
Tiniest primary producers in the marine environment: An appraisal from the context of waters around India
(Current Science Association, 2011)
Phytoplankton (0.2 mm - 2 mm) are the major primary producers in the marine environment thereby forming a basic link in the marine food web. They are categorized into different groups depending on their size range. Cells ...
Variations in phytoplankton community in a monsoon-influenced tropical estuary
(Springer, 2011)
In a monsoon-affected tropical estuary, oscillations in freshwater discharge during monsoon shifted the phytoplankton blooms from those adapted to low salinity to high salinity and vice versa. Salinity stratification during ...
Dinoflagellate community structure from the stratified environment of the Bay of Bengal, with special emphasis on harmful algal bloom species
(Springer, 2011)
Harmful algal blooms (HABs) have been documented along the coasts of India and the ill effects felt by society at large. Most of these reports are from the Arabian Sea, west coast of India, whereas its counterpart, the Bay ...
An overview of dinoflagellate cysts in recent sediments along the west coast of India
(NISCAIR (CSIR), 2011)
Distribution and abundance of dinoflagellate cysts in recent sediments along the west coast of India (26 coastal stations and 3 ports) is presented. A total of 47 different types of cysts and a maximum abundance of 1076 ...
The effect of bacteria on diatom community structure - The 'antibiotics' approach
(Elsevier, 2011)
To investigate the effect of bacteria on diatoms at the community level, sediment samples from an intertidal tropical environment were treated with penicillin (a Beta-lactam antibiotic that can affect diatoms only through ...
Role of conspecific cues and sugars in the settlement of cyprids of the barnacle, Balanus amphitrite
(The Zoological Society of London, 2011)
Gregarious settlement in barnacle is attributed to the settlement-inducing protein complex of cuticular glycoprotein, arthropodin. In this study, we characterized arthropodin protein complex (APC) from crude protein extracts ...
Primary description of surface water phytoplankton pigment patterns in the Bay of Bengal
(Elsevier, 2011)
Spatial and temporal variations in surface water phytoplankton pigment distribution in the Bay of Bengal were studied during the spring intermonsoon (SpIM, February–April) and the commencement of the summer monsoon (CSM, ...
