Fall 2016
Microalgae are a diverse group of photosynthetic microorganisms that have complex relationships with their surrounding bacteria, which are often controlled by the exchange of bioactive molecules. Emiliania huxleyi is a ubiquitous marine microalga, forming massive blooms, driving the marine carbon...

Hickman, M., Charlton, S. E. D., Jenkerson, C. G.
Studies concentrating upon the epilithic algal community were conducted in five tributary rivers flowing into the Athabasca river: the Muskeg, Steepbank, Hangingstone, MacKay, and Ells rivers. Numerically, cyanophycean algae (Lyngbya aerugineo-caerulea, Phormidium sp., Calothris braunii, Nostoc...

A longitudinal physico-chemical and algal survey of five rivers flowing through the AOSERP study area
Download1980
Jenkerson, C. G., Hickman, M., Charlton, S. E. D.
Studies concentrating upon the epilithon were conducted in five tributary rivers flowing into the Athabasca River: the Muskeg, Steepbank, Hangingstone, MacKay, and Ells rivers. The species composition of the epilithic algae was determined during June to November 1978. Diatoms and blue-green...

Application of Low Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound for Microbial Cell Stimulation in Bioprocesses And Development of Carbon-based Silver Covered Filters for Microbial Cells Removal in Water Systems
DownloadSpring 2017
Renewable resources with their potential application in food industry, pharmacy, energy sector, chemistry, material science etc. can be a major player in our everyday lives. Apart from sustainability in the production, the use of bioprocesses in the energy production and waste water treatment can...

1979
The epilithic microbial and micro-invertebrate communities under conditions of light and shade were studied from April to November 1978. During a period of increasing light intensity from May to June, the level of chlorophyll a (an algal biomass indicator) and numbers of Bacillariophyta in the...

Assessment of Environmental and Economic Footprints of Algae Production Systems for Colder Climate
DownloadFall 2019
Many open pond raceway (OPR) production systems for algae cultivation continue to be developed for moderate and hot climates (e.g., the USA, Europe and Australia). However, there has been very limited research on economic and environmental evaluations to assess whether these systems can be...

Broadening of genetic diversity in spring canola (Brassica napus L.) by use of yellow sarson and Canadian spring Brassica rapa L.
DownloadFall 2015
Canada is the top producer of Brassica oilseeds [B. napus L. (n = 19, AC genome)] in the world. Genetic diversity has declined in this crop in the recent years due to use of only superior and genetically narrow gene pool in breeding. Presence of adequate genetic diversity is important for further...

Characterization of a Type‐2 Diacylglycerol Acyltransferase from Haematococcus pluvialis Reveals Possible Allostery of the Recombinant Enzyme
Download2019-12-26
Nguyen, Trinh, Xu, Yang, Abdel-Hameed, Mona, Sorensen, John L., Singer, Stacy D., Chen, Guanqun
Haematococcus pluvialis is a green microalga used in the algal biotechnology industry that can accumulate considerable amounts of storage triacylglycerol (TAG) and astaxanthin, which is a high‐value carotenoid with strong antioxidant activity, under stress conditions. Diacylglycerol...

Characterization of Type-2 Diacylglycerol Acyltransferases in the Green Microalga Chromochloris zofingiensis
Download2018-12-13
Xu, Yang, Falarz, Lucas, Chen, Guanqun
Diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) catalyzes the last and committed step of the acyl-CoA-dependent TAG biosynthesis and thus is a key target for manipulating oil production in microalgae. The microalga Chromochloris zofingiensis can accumulate substantial amounts of triacylglycerol (TAG) and...
