Full textMarine forests of brown algae (Phaeophyceae) are impacted by a combination of anthropic pressures. The fate of these ecosystems will depend on the adaptive abilities of populations facing this changing environment. Through my PhD, I studied the factors likely to control the genetic diversity of marine forests by focusing on two endemic species of the mediterranean basin, the Fucoid Ericaria zosteroides and the deep-sea kelp Laminaria rodriguezii. In the first part, I studied the connectivity of populations by a method of reduced representation sequencing of genomes (RAD-seq). The analysis of the genetic structure indicates a reduced connectivity for both E. zosteroides and L. rodriguezii populations. By coupling genetic structure and modeling of marine currents, I studied the role of propagules dispersal, taking as a study case, the populations of E. zosteroides in Provence. The results indicate that the genetic structure is predicted by ocean currents rather than spatial isolation. In the second part, I studied the mode of reproduction of the kelp L. rodriguezii, this species being one of the few of the genus Laminaria to reproduce by vegetative and sexual reproduction. The results obtained indicate an impact of clonality on the genomic diversity of L. rodriguezii, with contrasting levels depending on the populations. In addition to the fundamental questions raised by these results, the existence of a strong genetic structure at short distances for populations divided into habitat patches has important implications for the conservation of these species

Full textMulticellularity has occurred independently in Phaeophyceae and in other multicellular lineages. Therefore these organisms offer the opportunity to study novel and alternative developmental processes. Ectocarpus siliculosus is the model species for brown algae and the development of its early sporophyte has been described precisely. To understand the genetic and molecular basis of this development, a forward genetic approach has been carried out. The mutant étoile is the first morphogenetics mutant exhaustively described. Its single locus and recessive mutation, leads to a defect in cell differentiation that decouples branching tempo and position leading to a hyperbranched phenotype. Gametophyte rhizoïde is modifoed as well, it resembles the étoile early sporophyt phenotype. The two phenotypes are genetically linked and thought to be induced by the etl mutation. The ETL locus has been identified by a map-based approach. The illumina sequencing of the mutant genome allowed to propose candidate mutations. The only non-silent mutation affects a protein with two functional domains: a BAR/IMD domain and RhoGAP domain. BAR/IMD domains can recognize lipid membranes and are able to inhibit RhoGAP domains which are regulators for RhoGTPases. As ETL is expressed in the filamentous apical cells, it could maintain tip-growth in the apices through interaction between its two domains. ETL gene is the first morphogenetic gene that has been cloned, and hence it opens hudge perspectives for functional characterization and evo-devo studies

Full textO género Fucus apresenta vasta distribuição na zona costeira Ibérica, tendo sido descritas cinco espécies para Espanha e quatro para Portugal (Fucus spiralis L., F. vesiculosus L., F. ceranoides L. e F. serratus L.). Possui enorme importância, tanto ecológica como comercial, essencialmente na produção de produtosnaturais medicinais. As espécies deste género surgem em diversos locais, incluindo os expostos a descargas de efluentes urbanos, industriais e aos lixíviados de terrenos agrícolas, encontrando-se normalmente nas zonas rochosas, onde sofrem zonação notória, que é controlada por complexas interacções fisiológicas e biológicas. O objectivo principal deste trabalho consistiu em efectuar os estudos de base necessários à utilização de espécies do género Fucus como bioindicadores em programas de biomonitorização em zonas costeiras e estuarinas da costa Noroeste de Portugal. Para atingir este objectivo foram desenvolvidos três trabalhos específicos: 1) analisar a variação morfológica de três espécies de Fucus (F. ceranoides, F. spiralis e F. vesiculosus), recolhidos na costa Noroeste Atlântica de Portugal entre o estuário do rio Minho e a Ria de Aveiro durante um ano, e o estabelecimento de correlações com os parâmetros ambientais; 2) avaliar o potencial de bioacumulação de mercúrio das espécies de Fucus [F. ceranoides, F. spiralis (F. spiralis var. platycarpus e F. spiralis var. spiralis) e F. vesiculosus]; 3) desenvolver e validar a metodologia necessária à utilização da actividade de glutationa S-transferase (GST) de Fucus spp. como biomarcador de contaminação ambiental. Através da Análise Canónica de correspondência foi possível perceber que o factor ambiental preponderante na variação dos parâmetros morfométricos parece ser a temperatura, estando este intimamente relacionado com o pH e a salinidade, em todas as espécies analisadas. A quantificação de mercúrio em três partes estruturais (receptáculos, lâmina e base) das espécies de Fucus, permitiu observar que os receptáculos continham menor concentração do que a base e a lâmina. Os valores obtidos para o sedimento apresentaram-se concordantes com os obtidos no material biológico (apesar dos espécimes consistentemente registarem concentrações superiores). Estes resultados sugerem que as espécies e variedades de Fucus estudadas são boas bioindicadores da contaminaçãopor mercúrio, em ecossistemas marinhos e estuarinos. F. ceranoides, F. spiralis var. platycarpus e F. vesiculosus apresentaram os valores mais baixos da actividade da GST nos locais de referência. As estações de amostragem, localizadas em áreas com reconhecida contaminação por hidrocarbonetos aromáticos policíclicos (HAPs), apresentaram valores mais elevados de actividade de GST, sugerindo indução dos mecanismos de destoxificação. Este facto não foi, no entanto, observado em F. spiralis var. spiralis.
The genus Fucusexhibits a wide distribution on the Iberian coast. Five species have been described for Spain and four for Portugal (Fucus spiralis L., F. vesiculosus L., F. ceranoides L. and F. serratus L.). This genus is of enormous importance, both from ecological and commercial (essentially in the production of natural medicinal products) points of view. Fucus spp. exists in several sites, including those receiving urban and industrial effluent discharges and leachates from farmland. The species of the Fucus genus are mainly found in rocky areas, where conspicuous zonation occurs, which is controlled by complex physiological and biological interactions. The main aim of this study was to launch the necessary basis to validate the use of the Fucusspecies as bioindicators in coastal and estuarine environments. To achieve this objective three steps with specific objectives were outlined: 1) analysis of morphologic variation in three species of Fucus (F. ceranoides, F. spiralis and F. vesiculosus), collected during a year, from the Portuguese Northwestern Atlantic coast (between the estuary of Minho river and the Aveiro tidal lagoon), and the establishment of correlations with environmental parameters; 2) evaluation of the potential of Fucus [F. ceranoides, F. spiralis (F. spiralis var. platycarpus and F. spiralis var. spiralis) and F. vesiculosus] to bioacumulate mercury; 3) to develop and validate the necessary methodologies for the application of Fucus spp. glutatione S-transferase as a biomarker of environmental contamination. Canonical correspondence analysis indicates that the dominant factor influencing morphometric parameters is temperature, always in close correlation with pH and salinity. Quantification of mercury in the three structural parts considered (receptacles, stipe and holdfast) showed that the receptacles consistently showed the lowest concentrations throughout the entire sampling campaign. Values obtained for the sediment were always consistent with the ones obtained for specimens, (the latter always presented higher concentrations). This leads to the conclusion that Fucuscan be considered a good bioindicator for mercury contamination in coastal and estuarine environments. As expected, F. ceranoides, F. spiralis var. platycarpus and F. vesiculosus registered the lowest values of GST activity in the reference stations. Sampling stations located in areas were contamination by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) is well known, showed higher values of activity for this enzyme, suggesting that detoxification mechanisms were induced.However, a different pattern was observed for F. spiralis var. spiralis.

Full textFilamentous brown algae (Phaeophyceae) constitute an essentially marine group that display an extremely simple morphology. The taxonomic identification of these algae is very difficult when based only on morphological characters, due to the high incidence of phenotypic plasticity. In Brazil, no systematic study using molecular data has investigated their representatives. In this context, this study aims to investigate the diversity of filamentous brown algae of the genera Acinetospora, Asteronema, Bachelotia, Ectocarpus, Hincksia and Feldmannia for the first time in Brazil, applying the molecular approach coupled with morphological data. The sampling sites covered the southeastern region of Brazil, including the upwelling area of the Rio de Janeiro and Espírito Santo coasts, which include almost all the filaments of brown algae mentioned for the country. The DNA barcode mitochondrial marker, COI-5P, and the plastid marker for phylogenetic inferences, rbcL, were sequenced. The molecular and morphological studies allowed the recognition of 10 taxa on the Brazilian southeastern coast, out of which eight taxa correspond to the order Ectocarpales, and two to the order Scytothamnales. Ectocarpales is represented by the families Acinetosporaceae (Acinetospora filamentosa, \"Feldmannia\" irregularis, \"Feldmannia irregularis\" 1, \"Feldmannia irregularis\" 2, \"Feldmannia\" mitchelliae, \"Hincksia\" conifer and Hincksia sandriana), and Ectocarpaceae (Ectocarpus fasciculatus). The order Scytothamnales, in turn, includes the families Asteronemataceae (\"Asteronema\" breviarticulatum) and Bachelotiaceae (Bachelotia antillarum) The Acinetosporaceae family is non-monophyletic and was divided into two clusters: Acinetosporaceae 1 for which the family name should be retained, included the type species of the family (Acinetospora crinite) and most of the Brazilian representatives; and Acinetosporaceae 2 for which a new family should be proposed, included the genera Feldmannia, Hincksia and Pylaiella represented by their respective type species, Feldmannia lebelli, Hincksia hincksiae and Pylaiella litorallis. Hincksia sandriana was the only species studied that grouped in the clade of the authentic genus Hincksia. Besides, this is the first record of H. sandriana for Brazil, which constitutes a case of recent introduction. For the other representatives of Acinetosporaceae 1, except Acinetospora, a new genus for science should be proposed. The taxa \"H.\" conifer, \"F.\" irregularis, \"F. irregularis\" 1, \"F. irregularis\" 2 and \"F.\" mitchelliae do not belong to the authentic genera Feldmannia and Hincksia, since they did not group with the respective generitypes. Therefore, should be transferred to the new genus. Analyzes applying both molecular markers showed that \"F.\" irregularis, \"F. irregularis\" 1 and \"F. irregularis\" 2, previously cited as a single species (F. irregularis), constitute three independent taxonomic entities. COI-5P sequences of F. irregularis from Italy, close to the type locality (Adriatic Sea), demonstrate that part of the analyzed material should be maintained under the epithet irregularis, whereas two new scientific species should be proposed to accommodate \"F. irregularis \"1 and \" F. irregularis \"2. COI-5P molecular analyzes divided \"F.\" mitchelliae into three clusters with high genetic divergence and morphological variability indicating that \"F.\" mitchelliae corresponds to a species complex. A sequence of \"F. mitchelliae from the United States (North Carolina), near the type locality (Massachusetts), obtained and included in the present study, confirmed that the Brazilian material should be described under the epithet mitchelliae and transferred to a new genus. Our molecular results have clearly demonstrated that the genus Acinetospora is non-monophyletic. Acinetospora filamentosa is for the first time mentioned for the Atlantic Ocean and was revealed by molecular data, both by COI-5P and rbcL. The species Acinetospora crinite recorded on the southeastern coast of Brazil was not collected in this study. Morphological differences in plurilocular structures between two species and absence of monosporangia in A. filamentosa, described as typical only for A. crinite, confirmed the occurrence of A. filamentosa for the Atlantic. Our results with the rbcL revealed that the family Asteronemataceae is non-monophyletic. \"Asteronema\" breviarticulatum was grouped with Asterocladon lobatum, the type species of the genus, and should be transferred to the genus Asterocladon and to the family Asterocladaceae. Consequently, a new combination should be proposed to solve taxonomic placement of this species. The high genetic divergence observed for the COI-5P and rbcL markers demonstrated that Bachelotia antillarum is a cryptic species. The use of the molecular tool in the study of filamentous brown algae in the southeastern region of Brazil was fundamental to uncover their diversity, previously underestimated, as well as to allow a better delimitation of their genera and species. The innovative data presented here constitute a relevant source of information to the taxonomy and systematics of filamentous brown algae. More investigations through a broad review, especially of the Acinetosporaceae family, a wider sampling in the Brazilian coast and the inclusion of more genera of filamentous brown algae in the analyses can still change the classification scenario of this group

Marine biodiversity is presented as a promising source of new substances with high biological potential. Among the many organisms that inhabit the marine environment, we stress the brown algae belonging to the family Dictyotaceae. Genus Canistrocarpus was recently established, and some algae Dictyota formerly were reclassified as Canistrocarpus. This work describes the results of the phycochemical study of Canistrocarpus cervicornis (formerly classified as Dictyota pulchella), and the evaluation of the phycochemical profile of C. cervicornis collected on the coast of Paraíba and the coast of Rio de Janeiro, which contributed to the correct name of Dictyota pulchella as Canistrocarpus cervicornis. Alga samples were collected at Bessa Beach (coordinates 07º04'01 '' S and 34º49'35 '' W), city of João Pessoa (PB) in August 2010 and December 2012. The material was dried at room temperature and extraction was performed with CH2Cl2 : MeOH (2:1). The material was dried at room temperature in fresh air and extraction was performed with CH2Cl2: MeOH (2:1). The extract obtained the first collection was subjected to vacuum filtration on silica gel with solvent hexane, ethyl acetate and methanol in increasing gradient of polarity. The fraction hexane : ethyl acetate (85:15) was subjected to column chromatography yielded one new natural product, the dolastane diterpene 4,7-diacetoxy dichotenone A. The extract resulting from the second collection was divided in two parts. The first part was subjected to column chromatography resulted in the isolation of a known dolastane diterpene, 4-acetoxy-14-hidroxydolast-1(15),7,9-triene. A second aliquot of the extract was acetylated and subjected to column chromatography, which led to the isolation of three diterpenes, one dolastane unpublished in the literature, 4-desoxy-amijidictyol and two known secodolastanes, isolinearol acetate and indicol. Chemical constituents isolated were identified by spectroscopic methods 1H and 13C-1D and 2D NMR, optical rotation and comparison with literature data. This study contributed to the chemotaxonomy of the tribe Dictyoteae, especially C. cervicornis.
A biodiversidade marinha apresenta-se como uma fonte promissora de novas substâncias com grande potencial biológico. Dentre os diversos organismos que habitam o ambiente marinho, merecem destaque as algas pardas pertencentes à família Dictyotaceae e gênero Canistrocarpus. Este gênero foi instituído recentemente, e algumas algas anteriormente denominadas Dictyota foram reclassificadas como Canistrocarpus. O presente trabalho descreve os resultados do estudo ficoquímico de Canistrocarpus cervicornis (anteriormente classificada como Dictyota pulchella), envolvendo a avaliação do perfil ficoquímico de C. cervicornis coletada no litoral da Paraíba e no litoral do Rio de Janeiro. Este estudo contribuiu para a correta denominação da então D. pulchella em C. cervicornis. As amostras da alga foram coletadas na Praia do Bessa (coordenadas 07º04’01’’ S e 34º49’35’’ W) na cidade de João Pessoa (PB), em agosto de 2010 e em dezembro de 2012. A secagem foi realizada a temperatura ambiente, em local arejado e a extração procedida com CH2Cl2:MeOH (2:1). O extrato resultante da primeira coleta foi submetido a uma filtração a vácuo em sílica gel com os solventes hexano, acetato de etila e metanol em gradiente crescente de polaridade. A fração hexano:acetato de etila (85:15) foi submetida a cromatografia em coluna, de onde se obteve um novo produto natural, o diterpeno dolastano 4,7-diacetoxi de dichotenona A. O extrato resultante da segunda coleta foi dividido em duas partes. Uma alíquota foi submetida à cromatografia em coluna, de onde se obteve o diterpeno dolastano conhecido 4-acetoxi-14-hidroxidolasta-1(15),7,9-trieno. A segunda alíquota do extrato foi acetilada e submetida a cromatografias em coluna, o que levou ao isolamento de três diterpenos, sendo um dolastano inédito na literatura, o 4-desoxi-amijidictyol e dois secodolastanos conhecidos, o acetato de isolinearol e o indicol. Os constituintes químicos isolados foram identificados por análises espectroscópicas de RMN 1H e 13C uni e bidimensionais, rotação ótica, e comparação com dados da literatura. Este estudo contribuiu para a quimiotaxonomia da tribo Dictyoteae, em especial de C. cervicornis.

Full textMarine zones associated with coral reef systems of the New Caledonia archipelago have been investigated for almost forty years with respect to their plant and invertebrate biodiversity and chemodiversity. In particular, thanks to their unique subtropical position close to tectonically active zones and to the Australian subcontinent, the complex reef systems of New Caledonia’s lagoons are home to a highly diverse marine fauna that is relatively protected from climatic disturbances. This is reflected by the score of novel bioactive molecules that have been discovered and characterized, several of which have been actively investigated for their antineoplastic and antitumoral potential activities. We paid particular attention to macroalgal species that induce programmed cell death, as an approach to detecting original anticancer bioactivities. Seven species of red (Rhodophyceae) and brown (Phaeophyceae) macroalgae collected in the South lagoon of New Caledonia (decree N°197-2016/ARR/DENV) have demonstrated interesting in vitro anticancer activity. In particular, one red macroalgal species led to the characterization of two bioactive natural products, the structure of one of which has not been described to date. Biological tests have shown that these two compounds could be promising candidates as antimitotic kinase inhibitors agents for the development of targeted anticancer chemotherapies. Interesting biological activities have also been revealed from several molecular isolates from two species of brown macroalgae, showing high selectivity towards non-cancerous cells. In the continuing investigations of the therapeutic potential of natural products isolated from New Caledonian marine organisms, this doctoral thesis has highlighted the therapeutic potential of several species of Rhodophyceae and Phaeophyceae which has hitherto been largely unexplored

Full textIn the marine environment, all submerged surfaces are rapidly colonized by bacteria and other microorganisms, resulting in the formation of complex three-dimensional structures called biofilms. This step could be followed by the attachment of macro-colonizers. Nevertheless, a number of marine organisms, such as macro-algae, appeared to be relatively free of epibionts at a macroscopic scale. In this study, several Mediterranean algae (Taonia atomaria and Dictyota spp.) were selected for their ability to keep their surface free of biofouling. However, microscopic techniques allowed the observation of a diversified biofilm on the surface of their thalli. The purpose of this work was to understand how this alga could interact with its associated bacteria using a chemical ecological approach. The first part of this work deals with studying the anti-adhesion properties of algal molecules against a range of marine bacteria. For this, the whole chemical composition of the two algae was analyzed leading to the isolation and structural characterization of 12 molecules from which three were found to be new. The anti-adhesion activity of some of these compounds was then evaluated: 1-O-octadecenoylglycerol proved to be the most active product (20 µM < EC50 <55 µM). The second part of this study was dedicated to the study of the surface metabolome of T. atomaria in order to assess its involvement in the ecological interactions between the alga and its associated bacteria. A specific extraction protocol was optimized for the surface compounds using a dipping technique in organic solvents associated with the integrity control of algal cell membrane. Sampling was carried out monthly at Carqueiranne (N W Mediterranean Sea, France) between February and July 2013. The results showed the presence of a major molecule in accordance with a sesquiterpenic structure. Anti-adhesion capacity against reference bacterial strains was noticed for this compound, while it remained inactive against strains isolated from the algal surface. This specificity was not observed for commercial biocides and the other molecules purified from crude algal extracts of T. atomaria. Then, changes in surface extracts and associated bacterial surface communities were monitored using metabolomics (LC-MS) and DGGE, respectively. Seasonal fluctuations for the two parameters could be reported without any evident correlation between them. The occurrence of the major molecule throughout the seasonal monitoring was also noticed and its capacity to diffuse in the marine environment was shown. Finally, the study of the potential involvement of the associated bacteria in the biofilm control was conducted by evaluating the anti-adhesion activity of their crude extracts against reference strains. In conclusion, we hypothesize that T. atomaria could control at least partially the biofilm at its surface using specific metabolites

O tratamento in vivo em camundongos com ligantes do receptor periférico benzodiazepínico (PBR) exerceram efeito inibitório na resposta inflamatória em dois modelos de inflamação aguda. No primeiro modelo o efeito antiinflamatório em de pré-tratamento com os ligantes PBR, PK11195 1-(2-chlorophenyl)-N-methyl-N(1-methylpropyl)-3-isoquinoline carboxamide e Ro5-4864 7-chloro-5-(4-Chlorophenyl)-1,3-dihydro-1-methyl-2-H-1,4-benzodiazepin-2, mostraram que a formação do edema em resposta a carragenina (300 mg/pata) foi inibida por PK11195 e Ro5-4864, em diferentes intervalos de tempo. O estudo do tempo resposta mostrou que a melhor resposta com ambos ligantes foi ótima em animais injetados no tempo de 24h, por esta razão este tempo de pré-tratamento foi escolhido para estudo da dose resposta. A formação do edema de pata em resposta a carragenina (300 mg/pata) foi reduzida por PK11195 e Ro5-4864 em diferentes doses (0,00001-10mg/kg, i.p.) produzindo uma inibição dose dependente na formação do edema de pata em camundongos induzida pela carragenina. PK11195 e Ro5-4864 (0.1 mg/kg, i.p.) quando administrado 24 h antes da indução do edema, inibiram de forma significativa o edema de pata de camundongos induzido por vários mediadores inflamatórios. No segundo modelo o pré-tratamento com os ligantes (0.1 mg/kg, i.p.), 24 h antes da indução da pleurisia induzida pela carragenina, mostrou uma significante inibição no recrutamento das células totais e diferenciais, principalmente a custas de neutrófilos, inibindo também a liberação de Interleucina-13 (IL-13) e Interleucina-6 (IL-6) no líquido pleural

The Dictyotales order (Phaeophyceae) is distributed in temperate and tropical flora. In Brazil, they occur from Maranhão to Rio Grande do Sul, besides Atol das Rocas and the archipelagos of Fernando de Noronha and Trindade. In the Northeast, this order is the most significant in numbers of species within the Phaeophyceae. Given its importance, this study aimed to make the taxonomic and floristic study of the order on the coast of the state of Alagoas, which has a great phycological diversity. Four sampling stations were selected along the coast. Samples were collected seasonally in the dry and rainy season, during low tides, in the intertidal zones using a spatula and/or in free dives. The collected material was fixed in 4% formalin and transported to the Federal Rural University of Pernambuco (UFRPE). The taxonomic identification was based on morphological and anatomical characters and was confirmed by specialized bibliographies. The taxonomic position was organized according to Wynne (2011). In the studied area the Dictyotales were represented by 20 taxa, distributed among the genera Canistrocarpus (three), Dictyopteris (five), Dictyota (six), Lobophora (one), Padina (four) and Spatoglossum (one). Five species are being cited as the first occurrence to Alagoas´ coast (C. crispatus (J.V. Lamour.) De Paula & De Clerck, D. jamaicensis W.R. Taylor, D. polypodioides (A.P.D.E. Candolle) J.V.Lamouroux, D. pinnatifida Kützing and P. antillarum (Kützing) Piccone). The study provides identification key to the species level and for each species identified a description, comments and ecological illustration. Among the 20 species of Dictyotales found, only Canistrocarpus cervicornis, C. crispastus, Dictyopteris delicatula, Dictyota jamaicensis, Padina antillarum and Spatoglossum schroederi occurred in the four sampling stations. The greatest richness was found in rocky substratum with occurrence of all species. Of the 20 taxa, 19 were common in both the seasons. Regarding the frequency of occurrence, in the dry and rainy season two taxa occurred as very common C. cervicornis and Dictyopteris delicatula. The similarity analysis (ANOSIM) showed significant differences between the sampling sites. The genera that had some problems in their identification were mostly Canistrocarpus and Dictyota, but with the observation of morphological and anatomical characters, conflicts were resolved. Chemical and biomolecular analyzes should be undertaken to better define the taxonomic limits of conflicting species of these genera.

No Nordeste, essa ordem é a mais expressiva em números de representantes dentro das Phaeophyceae. Diante dessa importância, este trabalho teve como objetivo realizar o estudo taxonômico e florístico da referida ordem no litoral do estado de Alagoas. Foram eleitas quatro estações de coleta ao longo do litoral. As coletas foram realizadas sazonalmente, no período seco (novembro e dezembro de 2013 e janeiro de 2014) e chuvoso (maio a julho de 2014), durante as marés baixas, nas zonas entremarés, com auxílio de espátula e/ou através de mergulhos livres. O material coletado foi fixado em formol a 4% e transportado à Universidade Federal Rural de Pernambuco (UFRPE). A identificação taxonômica baseou-se nos caracteres morfo-anatômicos e foi confirmada através de bibliografia especializada. A posição taxonômica foi organizada de acordo com Wynne (2011). Na área estudada as Dictyotales foram representadas por 20 táxons específicos, distribuídos entre os gêneros Canistrocarpus (três), Dictyopteris (cinco), Dictyota (seis), Lobophora (um), Padina (quatro) e Spatoglossum (um). Cinco espécies estão sendo citadas como primeira ocorrência para o litoral alagoano (C. crispatus (J.V. Lamour.) De Paula & De Clerck, Dictyopteris jamaicensis W.R.Taylor, D. polypodioides (A.P.De Candolle) J.V.Lamouroux, Dictyota pinnatifida Kützing e P. antillarum (Kützing) Piccone). O estudo fornece chave de identificação em nível específico e para cada espécie identificada, uma descrição, comentários ecológicos e ilustração. Dentre as 20 espécies encontradas, Canistrocarpus cervicornis, C. crispastus, Dictyopteris delicatula, Dictyota jamaicensis, Padina antillarum e Spatoglossum schroederi ocorreram nas quatro estações de coleta. A maior riqueza foi encontrada no substrato consolidado rochoso, com a ocorrência de todas as espécies. Dos 20 táxons encontrados, 19 foram comuns em ambos os períodos estacionais. Com relação à frequência de ocorrência, dois táxons ocorreram como muito frequentes C. cervicornis e Dictyopteris delicatula. A análise de similaridade (ANOSIM) mostrou diferenças significativas entre os locais de amostragem. Os gêneros que apresentaram alguma problemática em sua identificação foram principalmente Canistrocarpus e Dictyota, mas com a observação de caracteres morfológicos e anatômicos os conflitos foram resolvidos. Análises químicas e biomoleculares devem ser realizadas para melhor definir os limites taxonômicos das espécies conflitantes desses gêneros.

Os efeitos da radiação solar nos processos químicos e biológicos nos ambientes marinhos dependem principalmente da intensidade e do comprimento de onda. Os ambientes costeiros sempre estiveram sujeitos às altas radiações, porém a redução da camada de ozônio e o aumento do fluxo de UVR incidente são prejudiciais para organismos marinhos, principalmente aos fotossintetizantes. Para se protegerem desta variação, macroalgas adaptaram mecanismos de fotoproteção que são relacionados com a síntese de compostos que absorvem radiação UV/PAR atenuando estes efeitos deletérios. Atualmente, a busca por compostos bioativos naturais provenientes do ambiente marinho vem crescendo. Algas pardas são reconhecidas por sintetizar metabólitos secundários com potencial biotecnológico. O Brasil é rico em recursos aquáticos e apresenta uma costa com uma alta biodiversidade de espécies. Isso acarreta em um elevado potencial de espécies com compostos bioativos. O presente estudo teve como enfoque a prospecção de compostos que absorvem radiação UV/PAR com potencial biotecnológico, atrelando sua variação aos fatores abióticos. As algas foram coletadas na costa brasileira em vinte e três locais, provenientes de três regiões do Brasil. Todas as amostras foram condicionadas em sílica-gel. Foi obtido um extrato em metanol:clorofórmio dessas espécies e feita uma varredura de sua capacidade de absorver radiação UV-VIS, correlacionando esse aspecto aos fatores abióticos. As espécies de Phaeophyceae apresentaram um perfil característico do grupo com sete regiões principais de absorbância. As substâncias com maior interesse no grupo são os florotaninos e cumarinas absorvendo na região UV e carotenoides e clorofilaxiiabsorvendo na região PAR. Foi identificada a região 1 (Nordeste) com os maiores índices de compostos que absorvem radiação UV/PAR. Nesta avaliação, observou-se que temperatura, nebulosidade e nitrato estão diretamente correlacionadas aos compostos que absorvem a radiação UV/PAR. Como uma continuação do trabalho, recomenda-se que as substâncias fotoprotetoras, como fenólicos ou carotenoides, sejam extraídas e separadas / purificadas para maior detalhamento das moléculas e suas potencialidades.
Abstract : The effects of solar radiation on chemical and biological processes in marine environments depend mainly on intensities and wavelengths. Coastal environments have always been subject to high radiation, but the loss of the ozone layer and the increased flux of incident UVR are detrimental to marine organisms, especially photosynthesizers. To protect them from this variation, macroalgae adapted photoprotection mechanismsincluding the synthesis of UV / PAR absorbing compounds, attenuating these deleterious effects. Currently, the search for natural bioactive compounds from the marine environment has been growing. Brown algae are recognized for synthesizing secondary metabolites with biotechnological potential. Brazil is rich in aquatic resources and presents a coast with a high biodiversity of species. This leads to a high potential of finding species with bioactive compounds. The present study focused on the prospection of compounds that absorb UV/PAR radiation with biotechnological potential, linking its variation to abiotic factors. The algae were collected on the Brazilian coast in twenty-three sites, from three regions of Brazil. The samples were conditioned on silica gel. An extract was obtained in methanol: chloroform from these species and a scan of its capacity to absorb UV-VIS radiation, correlating this aspect with the abiotic factors. The silica gel method is not the most recommended for analysis of the metabolomics, and the percentage of degradation could compromise the significance of analyzes. The species of Phaeophyceae presented a characteristic profile of the group with seven main regions of absorbance. The substances of greatest interest in the group are the phlorotannins and coumarins absorbing in the UV region and carotenoids and chlorophyll absorbingxivin the PAR region. Region 1 (Northeast) was identified with the highest indexes of UV / PAR absorbing compounds. In this evaluation, it was observed that temperature, cloudiness and nitrate are directly correlated to these compounds variability. As a continuation of the work, it is recommended that photoprotective substances, such as phenolics or carotenoids, could be extracted and separated / purified for further detailing of the molecules and their potentialities.

The biology, population dynamics, and the environmental tolerances (temperature and light) in laboratory culture, of the endemic intertidal South African fucoid Bifurcaria brassicaeformis (Kütz) Barton have been investigated. A general description is included of the morphology and anatomy, and comparisons made with that of other species in the genus. Studies on plants collected from contrasting habitats on the lowshore and from mid-shore pools revealed that while cortical thickness of vegetative uprights were similar for both habitats, medullary diameters were generally higher, corresponding to generally thicker uprights in the low-shore. Observations on the method of zygote attachment revealed that attachment of the species resembles that of the European Bifurcaria and Halidrys siliguosa which both also display delayed rhizoidal development and initially attach by means of a mucilage secretion of the zygote wall. Observations on receptacle anatomy revealed that size of conceptacles increase from the apex to the base of a receptacle.

Full textThe genus Sargassum C. Agardh (Sargassaceae) is one of the most conspicuous among the 41 genera of the order Fucales (Phaeophyceae, Heterokontophyta). The genus has a broad distribution in the tropical and subtropical regions of the world, and is considered an important component of the marine flora. Due to a high phenotipic variation, the taxonomy of the genus is considered of the most complex among the brown seaweeds, as are known the representatives of the class Phaeophyceae. The phylogeny of the order Fucales was studied for the North Hemisphere genera, but is still not well understood. The phylogenetic studies of the genus Sargassum are scarce and limited to a few molecular markers, presenting low resolution for inter-specific analysis and are available only for species from the Indo-Pacific and the North Atlantic. There are no phylogenetic studies including species from the South Atlantic for the genus. This study is the first to analyze sequences from different molecular markers for species from the South Atlantic. In this study, the nuclear SSU rDNA and ITS2 were completely sequenced for the infra-generic taxa Sargassum cymosum var. cymosum, S. cymosum var. nanum, S. furcatum, S. stenophyllum and S. vulgare. All the sequences for both markers presented 100% identity among analyzed taxa. Sequences were also obtained for the chloroplast marker rbcLS, including parcial rbcL and the spacer region rbcLS for the species S. filipendula, S. stenophyllum and S. vulgar. These sequences also presented 100% identity among analyzed taxa. Phylogenetic analysis of each of the molecular markers, including our sequences together with other sequences available in the Genbank and generated by the inference methods Neigbour-joining, maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood were robust and similar to other results described in the literature for the order Fucales and the genus Sargassum. Nonetheless, these results are an indicative of the need for more efficient molecular markers, associated with data from in vitro hibridization, ecology and biogeography for a better understanding about the taxa occurring on the brazilian coast.

Resumo: Na região do Canal de São Sebastião, onde opera o maior terminal petrolífero do Brasil, há extensos bancos de algas pardas do gênero Sargassum e anfípodes associados, mas também existem hidrocarbonetos alifáticos e aromáticos de petróleo na água e no sedimento. Sabese que os anfípodes são eficientes bioindicadores de qualidade ambiental, assim como as algas são importantes bioacumuladores. Avaliou-se a presença de hidrocarbonetos em Sargassum e buscou-se relacionar suas concentrações com distâncias crescentes a partir do terminal, tanto ao norte quanto ao sul da Ilha de São Sebastião. Essas concentrações e distâncias também foram utilizadas para verificar a estruturação das comunidades de anfípodes do fital de Sargassum. Essa avaliação foi feita para anfípodes, abordando-se a composição de grupos tróficos e de espécies. Não foi constatada relação entre as distâncias e concentrações de hidrocarbonetos presentes nas algas e na estruturação das comunidades de anfípodes em nenhuma das abordagens. No entanto, notou-se correspondência entre elas, o que indica que a identificação em famílias para o estabelecimento de grupos tróficos pode ser eficiente numa avaliação ambiental mais rápida. Também se obteve importante informação em relação à fauna de anfípodes do litoral do Estado de São Paulo, uma vez que ainda não havia estudos na Ilha de São Sebastião e a fauna de ilhas do estado ainda é pouco conhecida
Abstract: In the São Sebastião Channel region, where operates the greatest Brazilian petroliferous terminal, there are extensive banks of the brown seaweed Sargassum with many associated amphipods, but also polyciclic aromatic hydrocarbons and aliphatic hydrocarbons, which are present both in sedment and water. The amphipods are known to be efficient bioindicators of environmental quality, as well as the seaweed are important bioacumulators. The presence of hydrocarbons in Sargassum and its relationship with increasing distances from the terminal, both north and south of the São Sebastião Island, was evaluated. These concentrations and distances were also used to verify the structure of amphipod communities associated to Sargassum . This evaluation was made for amphipods identified in trofic groups and in species. There was no significant relationship between distances from the terminal and concentrations of hydrocarbons in the seaweed or the estructure of the amphipod communities. However, correspondence between the aproachs (trofic groups and species) was noticed, which indicates that the identification in families for the establishment of trofic groups can be efficient in a faster ambient evaluation. Also, important information related to amphipods of the São Paulo State coast was achieved, as far as the fauna of São Sebastião Island was first studied and the islands fauna of the State are still little known

Full textSystematics of brown algae (Ochrophyta, Phaeophyceae) has long remained a significant challenge. The goal of my PhD was to explore systematics within Phaeophyceae at various scales through molecular phylogenies. First, a 10,000+ nt data set was analysed to reassess interordinal relationships. Moreover, mean divergence times were estimated under a fossil-calibrated bayesian relaxed molecular clock model. Our estimates suggest that the evolutionary history of brown algae was marked by an increase in the cladogenetic rhythm for ca 30 Ma during Lower Cretaceous. Multi-locus data sets have also allowed us to clarify the systematic position of several poorly studied pyrenoid-bearing taxa (e. G. Chordariopsis, Spongonema), and noticeably resulted in the proposal of a new order Asterocladonales. Finally, the availability of a rich sampling for the genus Padina (Dictyotales) has allowed us to shed light upon speciation processes and biogeography in the genus

Full textEl quimerismo ocurre cuando dos individuos genéticamente distintos y conspecíficos se fusionan o coalescen generando una única entidad genéticamente heterogénea conocida como quimera. Este aumento en la variabilidad genética intraorganismo supondría un aumento en la variabilidad fenotípica del mismo, lo que conferiría a estas entidades una mayor tolerancia ante cambios ambientales en comparación a individuos genéticamente homogéneos o no quiméricos, posiblemente debido a efectos sinérgicos entre las distintas líneas celulares. El beneficio de ser quimera ha sido estudiado en distintos grupos de algas, particularmente en especies de algas rojas (Gracilaria y Mazzaella), las cuales muestran una correlación positiva entre coalescencia y tolerancia al estrés. A pesar de ello, en macroalgas pardas los estudios han sido mayoritariamente descriptivos, evidenciado los procesos de formación de entidades quiméricas, así como la frecuencia del quimerismo en poblaciones naturales de Lessonia spicata. Sin embargo, se desconoce aún si en esta especie los organismos con quimerismo muestran mayor tolerancia al estrés que aquellos genéticamente homogéneos y si existe un efecto en la adecuación biológica de la quimera de acuerdo al número de individuos fusionados así como el nivel de parentesco de los individuos que se fusionan para formar la quimera (e.g. fusión entre hermanos, medios hermanos, vecinos, poblaciones distintas). Basado en lo anterior, el objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la tolerancia a estrés por temperatura de plántulas quiméricas y unitarias de L. spicata cultivadas en condiciones contrastantes de temperatura, distinto número de individuos fusionados y nivel de parentesco. Para ello, primero se desarrolló un protocolo para la generación masiva de plántulas con variabilidad genética intraorganismo de L. spicata en laboratorio. Segundo, se evaluó la tolerancia al estrés en términos de la tasa de crecimiento en condiciones contrastantes de temperatura (12±2°C vs 18±2°C) de plántulas quiméricas con distinto número de individuos fusionados versus unitarias. Tercero, se evaluó el efecto del parentesco sobre la quimera y el estrés térmico, comparando crecimiento entre unitarias, quimeras conformadas por cepas locales y quimeras conformadas por cepas de distintas poblaciones. Los resultados indicaron que plántulas quiméricas provenientes de la fusión de 5 esporofitos poseen una mayor tasa de crecimiento que las plántulas unitarias en condiciones normales de temperatura (12°C). Mientras que a estrés 10 térmico (18ªC) plántulas quiméricas también poseen una mayor tasa de crecimiento, pero la significancia de la respuesta depende de la densidad y parentesco de las entidades que forman la quimera. En términos de parentesco, los resultados sugieren que las quimeras provenientes de la fusión de esporofitos de plantas no emparentadas poseen una tasa de crecimiento mayor que quimeras formadas con medios hermanos. A la luz de estos resultados es posible concluir que el quimerismo en la macroalga parda Lessonia spicata le conferiría una ventaja a dichos organismos frente a los continuos cambios ambientales. Este hecho adquiere relevancia si se sabe que la especie está constantemente expuesta a cambios de la temperatura producto del Niño, así como el aumento de la temperatura del océano causado por cambio climático.
Chimerism occurs when two genetically distinct and conspecific individuals fuse or coalesce, generating a single entity genetically heterogeneous known as chimera. This condition increase the intraorganismal genetic variability, that could increase in the phenotypic variability and provide higher tolerance to environmental changes compared to genetically homogeneous or non-chimeric individuals. These can be produced due to synergistic effects between the genetically different cell lines that coexist into the chimera. The benefit of chimeric condition has been studied in different groups of macroalgae, particularly in the red species (Gracilaria and Mazzaella). They show a positive correlation between coalescence and stress tolerance. Despite of this, in the brown macroalgae the studies have been poorly described, most of them are descriptive, evidencing the formation processes of chimeric entities, as well as the frequency of chimerism in natural Lessonia spicata populations. However, it is still unknown whether the chimerism in Lessonia species shows greater stress tolerance than those genetically homogeneous. As well as whether there the fitness is affected by to the number of individuals fused, and/or the level of kinship among the individuals that composed the chimera (e.g. fusion between siblings, half siblings, neighbors, different populations). In this context, the main objective of this study was evaluate the thermal stress tolerance of chimeric and unitary organism in the brown macroalgae L. spicata, which were cultivated under contrasting temperature conditions, different number of fused individuals and level of kinship. To this, firstly in this study generated a protocol for massive generation of plantlets with intraorganismal genetic variability of L. spicata in laboratory. Secondly, the stress tolerance was evaluated in terms of specific growth rate under contrasting temperature conditions (12 ± 2 °C vs 18 ± 2 °C) of chimeric plantlets with different numbers of individuals fused versus unitary ones. Thirdly, the effect of kinship on the chimera and thermal stress was evaluated by comparing growth rate between unitary individuals versus chimeras formed by local strains, and from different populations. The results indicate that chimeric plantlets resulting from the fusion of 5 sporophytes have a higher growth rate than the unitary plantlets under normal conditions (12°C). While under thermal stress (18°C) the chimeras have the higher growth rate. However, the significant differences depended on the density and kinship of the entities that made up the chimera and the culture temperature. In terms of 12 kinship, the results suggest that chimeras resulting from the fusion of sporophytes of unrelated plants have a higher growth rate than chimeras formed by half-sib brothers. Follow these results, it is possible to conclude that chimerism in the brown macroalga Lessonia spicata would confer an advantage to these organisms in face to continuous environmental changes. This fact acquires relevance if it is known that this species is constantly exposed to temperature changes produced by ENSO events, as well as the increase in the ocean temperature caused by climate change.

Full textFour Sargassaceae genus presenting high biomass in Brittany and/or in the South Pacificwere chosen as models of this study. The aims of this works were i) to understand the chemical ecology of Sargassaceae in temperate and tropical environment, ii) to characterize specific chemomarkers from certain species and iii) to identify potential bioactive molecules. Then, a pluridisciplinary work was carry out with the study of the chemical ecology of Sargassaceae, in Brittany on one hand, with the study of the spatio-temporal variations of certain defense compounds of Sargassum muticum, Bifurcaria bifurcata and Cystoseira baccata associated with an ecological survey of these species and in the South Pacific on the other hand, with the study of these same defense compounds within Turbinaria sp. And Sargassun sp from various sites. At the same time, two chemotaxonomical studies were led. On the Turbinaria genera to identify one or several chemomarker(s) allowing discriminating T. Ornata and T. Conoides. And on the other hand, on B. Bifurcata to understand the geographical distribution of the existing chemical types within this species. Then, to answer the third objective of this work, three biological activities were looked for first and foremost within the studied species: cytotoxicity, anti-inflammatory activity and neurotoxicity. The results allowed i) to highlight the impact of the environmental conditions on the biological and ecological variables studied to these species in temperate and tropical enviromnents; ii) to identify the acid turbinaric as a chemomarker of T. Conoides and to highlight the existence of ecotypes from B. Bifurcata; iii) to report the anti-phospholipase A2 activity of fatty acids stemming from tropical seaweeds and the antiradical and antioxidant activities of eleganolone isolated from B. Bifurcata

Full textEl cobre es un micronutriente esencial, pero a altas concentraciones puede inducir la síntesis de especies reactivas de oxígeno (ROS), causando una condición de estrés oxidativo. En sitios costeros contaminados por cobre, prevalecen sólo algunas especies de macroalgas, como Scytosiphon lomentaria y Ulva compressa, las que presentan mecanismos eficientes de tolerancia al metal. Contrariamente, la macroalga parda Lessonia nigrescens, ecológicamente importante en la zona intermareal, se encuentra ausente en sitios contaminados por cobre y presenta mecanismos de tolerancia al metal insuficientes. Recientemente, en Scytosiphon gracilis, macroalga parda que presenta mecanismos de tolerancia similares a los descritos en S. lomentaria, se identificaron proteínas involucradas en la tolerancia al estrés por cobre, entre las que se encuentran las peroxirredoxinas (PRXs), enzimas capaces de reducir peróxido de hidrógeno, alquilhidroperóxidos y peroxinitritos, escasamente estudiadas en macroalgas. Estas enzimas reaccionan a bajas concentraciones de peróxidos en comparación a otras enzimas como catalasa y son susceptibles a inactivación a elevadas concentraciones de peróxidos. En el presente trabajo, se estudió la activación PRXs en respuesta al estrés oxidativo generado por cobre en las algas pardas S. gracilis y L. nigrescens, cultivadas en presencia de concentraciones crecientes del metal (5 a 100 μg Cu L-1, más un control sin adición de cobre) durante 96 h. Se evaluó marcadores de daño oxidativo, como la generación de lipoperóxidos y la pérdida de eficiencia máxima del fotosistema II (Fv/Fm). Adicionalmente, se realizó estudios de inmunofluorescencia para detectar PRXs en ambas especies. Los resultados indicaron que las PRXs mostraron afinidad tanto por peróxido de hidrógeno como por ter-butil hidroperóxido como sustratos y se observó un aumento de la actividad usando DTT como agente reductor a partir de 5 μg Cu L-1. Los niveles de actividad PRX en S. gracilis fueron superiores a los de L. nigrescens en todas las concentraciones del metal evaluadas e incluso en individuos no expuestos al metal (i.e. actividad basal). Los valores máximos de actividad PRX se registraron en 40 μg Cu L-1 en S. gracilis y en 10 μg Cu L-1 en L. nigrescens. En ambas especies se detectó un aumento de la actividad PRX acoplada a tiorredoxina, pero la actividad PRX acoplada a glutarredoxina sólo aumentó en S. gracilis. Se observó inhibición de la actividad PRX a partir de 20 μg Cu L-1 en L. nigrescens y en S. gracilis a partir de 100 μg Cu L-1. Este fenómeno coincidió en ambas especies con un aumento de lipoperóxidos, lo que sugiere que las PRXs controlarían los niveles de lipoperóxidos generados por estrés oxidativo. Respecto a la medición de eficiencia fotosintética, si bien se observó un efecto del cobre sobre los fotosistemas en ambas especies, resultó ser un parámetro menos sensible que los lipoperóxidos y no hubo diferencias a nivel global entre las especies. Análisis de inmunofluorescencia mostraron que en L. nigrescens no variaron los niveles proteicos de PRX en individuos tratados con 10 y 100 μg Cu L-1 respecto a su control y que en S. gracilis aumentan los niveles proteicos de PRX en individuos tratados con 40 μg Cu L-1 y disminuye en 300 μg Cu L-1, coincidiendo con los resultados de actividad enzimática. Los resultados sugieren que las PRXs participan en la tolerancia al estrés por cobre, actuando como una barrera antioxidante, siendo más eficientes en S. gracilis que en L. nigrescens. La actividad de las PRXs en S. gracilis ayuda a explicar funcionalmente la capacidad de esta especie de tolerar ambientes contaminados con altos niveles de cobre, mediante la reducción de peróxidos y posiblemente mediante el control de vías de señalización redox, que regulan la adaptación de esta especie a sitios contaminados por cobre. En el caso de L. nigrescens, la pérdida de actividad de las PRXs frente a bajas concentraciones de cobre ayudaría a explicar el grave daño celular que se genera en esta especie y, a nivel ecológico, el impedimento que esto le genera para colonizar ambientes contaminados por el metal.
Copper is an essential micronutrient, but at high concentrations can induce the synthesis of reactive oxygen species (ROS), generating a condition of oxidative stress. In coastal copper-impacted sites, prevail only a few species of macroalgae, such as Scytosiphon lomentaria and Ulva compressa, which have efficient metal tolerance mechanisms. Conversely, the brown seaweed Lessonia nigrescens, environmentally important in the intertidal zone, is absent from copper-impacted sites and presents insufficient metal tolerance mechanisms. Recently, in Scytosiphon gracilis, brown seaweed that presents similar tolerance mechanisms to those described in S. lomentaria, proteins involved in tolerance to copper-induced stress were identified, among them, peroxiredoxins (PRXs). These enzymes are capable to reduce hydrogen peroxide, alkylhydroperoxides and peroxynitrites, and have been poorly studied in macroalgae. These enzymes react at low concentrations of peroxides in comparison to other enzymes such as catalase and are susceptible to inactivation at high concentrations of peroxides. In this work, the PRX activation was studied in response to copper-induced oxidative stress in brown algae S. gracilis and L. nigrescens cultured with increasing concentrations of the metal (5 to 100 μg Cu L-1, and a control without copper addition) for 96 hours. Oxidative damage markers, such as the generation of lipoperoxides and loss of photosystem II efficiency (Fv/Fm) were evaluated. Additionally, an immunofluorescence study was carried out in order to detect PRXs in both species. The results indicated that the PRXs showed affinity for both hydrogen peroxide and ter-butyl hydroperoxide as substrates, and an increase in activity was observed using DTT as a reducing agent from 5 μg Cu L- 1. PRX activity in S. gracilis was superior to L. nigrescens in all the copper concentrations assessed and even in individuals not exposed to the metal (i.e. basal activity). The maximum values of PRX activity occurred at 40 μg Cu L-1 in S. gracilis and at 10 μg Cu L- 1 in L. nigrescens. An increase of PRX activity coupled to thioredoxin was detected in both species, but PRX activity coupled to glutaredoxin only increased in S. gracilis. It was observed loss of PRX activity from 20 μg Cu L- 1 in L. nigrescens and S. gracilis from 100 μg Cu L-1. This phenomenon coincided in both species with an increase of lipoperoxides, which suggests that the PRXs would control the levels of oxidative stress-generated lipoperoxides. Respect to the measurement of photosytem II efficiency, while an effect of copper on the photosystems in both species was observed, this marker was less sensitive than the lipoperoxides and there was no overall differences between the species. Immunofluorescence analysis showed that in L. nigrescens treated with 10 and 100 μg Cu L-1 PRX levels did not suffer any change respect to the control. In S. gracilis there was an increase of PRX levels in individuals treated with 40 μg Cu L- 1 and a decrease at 300 μg Cu L-1, coinciding with the results of enzymatic activity. The results suggest that the PRXs are involved in tolerance to copper-induced stress, acting as an antioxidant barrier, being more efficient in S. gracilis than in L. nigrescens. The PRX activity in S. gracilis helps to explain the ability of this species to tolerate copper-enriched environments, through the reduction of peroxides and possibly through the control of redox signaling pathways that regulate the adaptation of this species to polluted sites. In the case of L. nigrescens, the loss of activity of the PRXs at low copper concentrations would help to explain the severe cellular damages that occur in this species, and ecologically, the impediment of L. nigrescens to colonize copper-enriched environments.

Full textEndophytic brown algae invade stipes and fronds of kelps with potential negative effects for their hosts. The molecular diversity of kelp endophytes was investigated and a majority of the isolated endophytes belonged to the genera Laminarionema and Laminariocolax. Using a qPCR approach, a high prevalence of the endophyte Laminarionema elsbetiae was detected in natural Saccharina latissima populations, but with seasonal and geographical variations. Co-cultivation experiments showed different physiological responses of the main host, S. latissima, and an occasional host, Laminaria digitata, to L. elsbetiae. A transcriptomic approach revealed important differences between the molecular responses of the two kelps, related to the recognition of the endophyte and subsequent defence reactions. These specific differences in the molecular cross-talk during the early steps of the interaction could explain the variability of natural infection patterns in kelp species

Full textIn the 1980s, the Indo-Pacific brown alga Turbinaria ornata underwent a population explosion in the high islands of the Society archipelago (French Polynesia). Population biology parameters has been explored and seems to be controlled by environment. The phylogenetic analysis has confirmed the different studied taxa as true species. Phylogenies were constructed at a larger geographical scale with four other Turbinaria species and have shown very small divergences at very large scales testifying the large dispersal capabilities that underscore the potentially invasive nature of the species. Genetic markers were used to estimate gene flow through French Polynesia. All these markers were monomorphic at the Polynesian scale; except one Anonymous locus with two alleles. A significant correlation between allele frequency and hydrodynamism was revealed. Results might even allow us to hypothesise that the Rangiroa populations are not of purely Tahitian origin

Full textThe purpose of phenological studies is to describe and understand how the development of the organisms occurs in response to environmental variations which change cyclically and how certain factors stimulate the generation of signals and a cascade of reactions from molecular, biochemical and physiological levels, which at the end manifests annual patterns of abundance and reproduction. Environmental changes occur in time scale (daily, seasonal, interannual) and spatial scale (latitudinal, depth, altitude) and have a strong impact on growth and development of the species, especially those with sessile characteristics. The purpose of this study was to characterize the phenology (seasonal and latitudinal) of abundance, reproduction, photosynthesis and antioxidant capacity of two macroalgae with ecological and economic importance, Porphyra spp. (Rhodophyta) and Lessonia spp. (Phaeophyceae), distributed along the coast north and center (25° - 34°S) in Chile. The results show that seasonal changes in radiation and latitudinal temperature significantly influence the phenological and ecophysiological responses of the species studied. For Porphyra spp., the most notorious temporal adjustment involves an annual phenological development from north population in contrast to perennial populations from central and south. The physiological characteristics showed decrease in photosynthetic efficiency, pigments (chlorophyll a, carotenoids and phycobiliproteins) and soluble proteins in spring-summer, accompanied by increasing in antioxidant capacity. For Lessonia spp., although the abundance showed no seasonal changes between the populations, the most notoriously temporal adjustment occurs in physiological characteristics with decrease in photosynthetic efficiency, pigments (chlorophylls a and c, carotenoids), phenols and antioxidant capacity during the summer, followed by increase in thallus absorptance, ETRmax and NPQ. Studies on the taxonomic identity of Porphyra populations are required to distinguish between possible characteristics due to species-specific patterns from morphological or ecotypes variations. Studies in the species Lessonia near their limits of biogeographical distribution could elucidate whether the phenological and physiological differences are due to patterns species-specific or are masked by local environmental characteristics. The phenological studies and changes in the biochemical/physiological levels can subsidize new destination of biomass production and raw material from organisms economically important. Moreover, changes in typical phenological and ecophysiological patterns can give a light about environmental impacts of alterations such as global climate changes, contamination and pollution, overexploitation and interactions and dynamics between populations.

Sargassum cymosum é uma alga parda da ordem Fucales, conspícua da flora marinha bentônica de regiões tropicais e temperadas. É encontrada, principalmente, nos costões rochosos protegidos, onde podem formar extensos bancos, sendo assim as algas mais representativas em biomassa e um importante representante na dinâmica ecológica destes ambientes costeiros. Estudos desenvolvidos ao longo de vários anos demonstram o interesse nas algas pardas da ordem Fucales como um modelo de estudo do processo de embriogênese. No entanto, muitos trabalhos referentes a estes processos são encontrados somente para espécies do gênero Fucus e Silvetia, algas presentes predominantemente em regiões frias. Sendo assim, o trabalho visou desenvolver estudos iniciais para a produção de um modelo de estudo de desenvolvimento de uma alga parda de regiões tropicais. O desenvolvimento inicial de zigotos e embriões de S. cymosum foi caracterizado e comparado com o padrão de desenvolvimento estabelecido para todas as algas fucóides, apresentando algumas características que diferem dos demais gêneros como: o zigoto permanece aderido ao receptáculo no inicio do desenvolvimento; a segunda divisão celular que forma a celula rizoidal; o eixo polar e fixado 2 horas após a fecundação e; núcleo extremamente pequeno. Quando analisado o envolvimento dos componentes do citoesqueleto neste processo, pode-se indicar que os microtúbulos e os filamentos de actina tem papel importante no desenvolvimento, pois, as amostras tratadas com colchicina sofreram polarização mas, as divisões celulares não foram observadas e, as tratadas com citocalasina B, alem de não dividir, também não sofreram polarização. Alem do citoesqueleto, o sistema de endomenbranas também mostrou-se importante para o desenvolvimento de S. cymosum, pois quando tratados os zigotos com BFA, inibidor dos corpos de Golgi, este processo foi afetado. Tal tratamento afetou o correto funcionamento dos corpos de Golgi, assim, comprometendo a formação de parede celular e membrana celular, importantes para a determinação do eixo polar, afetando diretamente o dimensionamento do crescimento celular. Também contribuiu para a alta taxa de fusão de vesículas de compostos fenólicos, os fisóides. Esta fusão dos fisóides ocupou grande parte do citoplasma impedindo os demais processos citoplasmáticos, afetando diretamente o desenvolvimento desta alga. Alem disto tudo, os zigotos e embriões são estruturas com simplicidade celular, sendo assim, são extremamente sensíveis aos fatores ambientais. Para avaliar tal característica, plântulas jovens de S. cysomum foram tratadas com radiações UVB e UVA, e associação destas radiações. Estes tratamentos afetaram de diferentes formas as plântulas, com alterações nas taxas de crescimento, principalmente, no tratamento PAR+UVB que apresentou o menor valor; alterou levemente a concentração dos diferentes tipos de pigmentos; redução significativa na concentração de compostos fenólicos e; alterações na morfologia ultraestrutural especialmente nas células corticais com, espaçamento da parede celular, degradação dos fisóides e, alterações nos cloroplastos. Desta forma, as alterações nas condições naturais observadas, especialmente com as variações e aumentando da incidência da radiação UV, poderia afetar o recrutamento de S. cymosum em leitos naturais, com mudanças na estrutura da comunidade e redução da abundância da espécie no ambiente.
Abstract: Sargassum cymosum is a brown algae of the order Fucales, conspicuous benthic marine flora of tropical and temperate regions. It is found, mainly, in protected rocky shores, where they can form extensive banks, thus being the most representative in algal biomass and a major representative of the ecological dynamics of these coastal environments. Studies conducted over several years show interest in brown algae of the order Fucales as a study model of embryogenesis. However, many papers related to these processes are found only for species of Fucus and Silvetia, algae present predominantly in cold regions. Therefore, the initial development work aimed to produce a model for studying the development of tropical brown alga studies. The initial development of zygotes and embryos of S. cymosum was characterized and compared with the established pattern of development for all fucodes algae, presenting some features that differ from other genres such as: the zygote remains attached to the receptacle at the beginning of development; the second cell division that forms the rhizodalccell; the polar axis and fixed 2 h after fertilization and; extremely small nucleous. When examined the involvement of cytoskeletal components in this process, could indicate that microtubules and actin filaments plays an important role in development, for the samples treated with colchicine undergone polarization but cell divisions were observed, and the treated with cytochalasin B, in addition to no cell divisions, did not suffer polarization. Besides cytoskeletal, the endomembranas system also proved important for the development of S. cymosum because when treated the zygotes with BFA, inhibitor of Golgi bodies, this process is affected. Such treatment affected the correct functioning Golgi bodies, thus jeopardizing the cell wall formation and of membrane cellular, important for determining the polar axis, directly affecting the sizing of cell growth. Also contributed to the high rate of vesicle fusion of phenolic compounds, fisodes. This fusion of fisóides occupied much of the cytoplasm, preventing other cytoplasmic processes, directly affecting the development of this alga. Besides all this, zygotes and embryos are cell structures with simplicity, therefore, are extremely sensitive to environmental factors. To evaluate this characteristic, young plants of S. cysomum were treated with UVB and UVA radiation, and combination of these radiations. These treatments affected differently seedlings with changes in growth rates, especially in the treatment PAR + UVB showed the lowest value; slightly alter the concentration of different types of pigments; significant reduction in the concentration of phenolic compounds and; changes in ultrastructural morphology especially in cortical cells with spacing of cell wall degradation fisodes and changes in chloroplasts. Thus, the observed changes in natural conditions, especially with the variations and increasing the incidence of UV radiation could affect the recruitment of S. cymosum in natural beds with changes in community structure and reduction of species abundance in the environment.

Full textThe search for natural molecules in many industrial fields is growing with a view to ecoresponsibility, particularly in cosmetics. Seaweeds are an interesting resource as being rich in many molecules such as phenolic compounds with photoprotective, antioxidant and antiaging activities.The aim of this PhD was to analyze brown seaweeds from Brittany (France) in terms of phenolic compounds in the early or macroscopic stages, to obtain fractions enriched in active phenolics, to identify them and to inlude them in cosmetic formulations. The results showed high levels of phenolics, particularly in Fucales, and a seasonal variation in their content according to the species.This study showed that alternative green extraction and purification of phenolics make it possible to obtain fractions enriched in these compounds in a similar or even superior way to conventional methods. On the other hand, an HPLC analysis has separated phenolics, which must be combined with a mass spectrometry method to allow the identification of the compounds. This work has highlighted the ability of phenolics to be recovered in cosmetic products by their antiaging activity and their stability in the dry extract. Their stability within cosmetic formulations has yet to be validated in different galenics, as only one galenic has been tested in this study
