Transparent exopolymeric particles (TEP) selectively increase biogenic silica dissolution from fossil diatoms as compared to fresh diatoms Universiteit Gent
Diatom production is mainly supported by the dissolution of biogenic silica (bSiO(2)) within the first 200 m of the water column. The upper oceanic layer is enriched in dissolved and/or colloidal organic matter, such as exopolymeric polysaccharides (EPS) and transparent exopolymeric particles (TEP) excreted by phytoplankton in large amounts, especially at the end of a bloom. In this study we explored for the first time the direct influence of ...

Étude de la variabilité des assemblages des diatomées actuelles dans les lacs d’Ounianga (Sahara, Tchad) Plantentuin Meise / Agentschap Plantentuin Meise
Les diatomées sont reconnues comme d’excellents bio-indicateurs des variations du milieu aquatique dans lequel elles se développent. Elles sont utiles pour la reconstitution des environnements passés comme pour la bio-indication de la qualité des eaux actuelles. Des travaux, portant sur la biomasse algaire dans le lac Tchad, ont permis de mettre en évidence que c’est certainement le groupe le plus représenté du phytoplancton [1,2]. De plus, avec ...
Eukaryotic pathogens (Chytridiomycota and Oomycota) infecting marine microphytobenthic diatoms: a methodological comparison Universiteit Gent
Responses of aquatic organisms to metal pollution in a lowland river in Flanders : a comparison of diatoms and macroinvertebrates Plantentuin Meise / Agentschap Plantentuin Meise
The role of macroinvertebrates and diatoms as indicator for metal pollution was investigated by assessing both biota along a metal gradient in the Belgian river the Dommel. Macroinvertebrates and diatoms were sampled in summer and winter and physical-chemical characteristics of the water were measured at four different sample periods and related to sediment characteristics. Although metal concentrations, except cadmium, in the water nowhere ...
