AXENIC CULTIVATION OF THE HETEROTROPHIC DINOFLAGELLATE PFIESTERIA SHUMWAYAE AND OBSERVATIONS ON FEEDING BEHAVIOR

JOURNAL OF PHYCOLOGY, 44(6), 1614–1624.

By: H. Skelton n, J. Burkholder n & M. Parrow*

author keywords: axenic culture; dinoflagellate; heterotrophic; Pfiesteria; phagotrophy
TL;DR: An undefined, biphasic culture medium was formulated that supported the axenic growth of two of three strains of P. shumwayae and allowed detailed observations of feeding behavior. (via Semantic Scholar)

2006 journal article

Direct uptake of nitrogen by Pfiesteria piscicida and Pfiesteria shumwayae, and nitrogen nutritional preferences

HARMFUL ALGAE, 5(4), 380–394.

By: P. Glibert *, J. Burkholder n, M. Parrow n, A. Lewitus* & D. Gustafson*

author keywords: Pfiesteria; nitrogen nutrition; heterotrophy; toxigenic dinoflagellates
TL;DR: It is confirmed that when dissolved N concentrations are elevated, they can contribute to the supplemental nutrition of these cells, and thus may provide a significant source of N to Pfiesteria spp. (via Semantic Scholar)

By: A. Kremp * & M. Parrow n

author keywords: Baltic Sea; dinoflagellate; DNA content; dormancy; flow cytometry resting cyst; Scrippsiella hangoei
TL;DR: These findings represent the first measurements of dinoflagellate resting cyst DNA content, and provide the first quantitative evidence for din oflageLLate asexual resting cysts. (via Semantic Scholar)

2006 journal article

Grazing activity of Pfiesteria piscicida (Dinophyceae) and susceptibility to ciliate predation vary with toxicity status

HARMFUL ALGAE, 5(4), 427–434.

By: A. Lewitus*, M. Wetz, B. Willis, J. Burkholder n, M. Parrow n & H. Glasgow n

author keywords: cryptophytes; grazing; microzooplankton; Pfiesteria piscicida; toxicity status
TL;DR: Results suggest a relatively high reliance on phagotrophic carbon assimilation and more rapid response to algal prey availability in Pfiesteria cells with lower toxicity, providing additional evidence of the importance of cellular toxicity in the trophic ecology of Pfyingteria.

2006 journal article

Phosphatase activity in the heterotrophic dinoflagellate Pfiesteria shumwayae

HARMFUL ALGAE, 5(4), 395–406.

By: H. Skelton n, M. Parrow n & J. Burkholder n

author keywords: acid phosphatase; alkaline phosphatase; dinoflagellate; ELF-97; heterotroph; Pfiesteria shumwayae
TL;DR: The location of enzyme activity and supporting colorimetric measurements suggest that, as in other heterotrophic protists, acid phosphatases predominate in P. shumwayae and have a general catabolic function. (via Semantic Scholar)

Taxonomy of Pfiesteria (Dinophyceae)

HARMFUL ALGAE, 5(5), 481–496.

By: H. Marshall*, P. Hargraves*, J. Burkholder n, M. Parrow n, M. Elbraechter, E. Allen n , V. Knowlton n, P. Rublee* ...

author keywords: Pfiesteria; Pfiesteria shumwayae; electron microscopy; morphology; plate tabulation; ribosomal genes; phylogenetic trees; taxonomy; toxigenic
TL;DR: Pfiesteria appears to be closely related to as-yet informally described cryptoperidiniopsoids and calcareous dinoflagellates such as Thoracosphaera; thus, the family classification requires revision that is beyond the scope of this study. (via Semantic Scholar)

2006 article

The taxonomy and growth of a Crypthecodinium species (Dinophyceae) isolated from a brackish-water fish aquarium

Parrow, M. W., Elbraechter, M., Krause, M. K., Burkholder, J. M., Deamer, N. J., Htyte, N., & Allen, E. H. (2006, September). AFRICAN JOURNAL OF MARINE SCIENCE, Vol. 28, pp. 185–191.

By: M. Parrow*, M. Elbraechter, M. Krause, J. Burkholder*, N. Deamer, N. Htyte, E. Allen* 

author keywords: Crypthecodinium; dinoflagellate; phylogeny; small sub-unit rDNA; taxonomy; theca
TL;DR: This study provides the first clear demonstration of the plate tabulation of a Crypthe codinium species since the original description over 60 years ago, allowing the original morphological conception of Crypthecodinium to be linked with molecular phylogenetic information.

2005 journal article

Contaminant-free cultivation of Pfiesteria shumwayae (Dinophyceae) on a fish cell line

AQUATIC MICROBIAL ECOLOGY, 39(1), 97–105.

By: M. Parrow n, J. Burkholder n, N. Deamer n & J. Ramsdell*

author keywords: Pfiesteria spp.; fish cell line; dinoflagellate culture
TL;DR: Geographically distinct strains of the heterotrophic dinoflagellate Pfiesteria shumwayae were cultivated on a fish cell line in the apparent absence of bacteria and other microbial conta- minants, suggesting a possible difference in nutritional requirements between the 2 Pfieseria species.

2004 journal article

The sexual life cycles of Pfiesteria piscicida and cryptoperidiniopsoids (Dinophyceae)

JOURNAL OF PHYCOLOGY, 40(4), 664–673.

By: M. Parrow n & J. Burkholder n

author keywords: chromosomes; dinoflagellate; gametes; meiosis; nuclear cyclosis; planozygote; sexual reproduction
TL;DR: Sexual life cycle events in Pfiesteria piscicida and cryptoperidiniopsoid heterotrophic dinoflagellates were determined by following the development of isolated gamete pairs in single‐drop microcultures with cryptophyte prey, with dramatic swirling chromosome movements found in zygote nuclei before division.

2003 review

Estuarine heterotrophic cryptoperidiniopsoids (Dinophyceae): Life cycle and culture studies

[Review of ]. JOURNAL OF PHYCOLOGY, 39(4), 678–696.

By: M. Parrow n & J. Burkholder n

author keywords: cell cycle; dinoflagellates; flow cytometry; heterotrophy; meiosis; mixotrophy; nuclear cyclosis; phagotrophy; planozygote; reproduction
TL;DR: In the seven clonal isolates examined, reproduction was strongly linked to the availability of prey cells, and resistance of reproductive cysts to antimicrobial treatments was examined, and a simple high‐yield technique was developed for population synchronization while ridding the dinoflagellates of most contaminating vacuolar prey DNA and external contaminants.

2003 journal article

Reproduction and sexuality in Pfiesteria shumwayae (Dinophyceae)

JOURNAL OF PHYCOLOGY, 39(4), 697–711.

By: M. Parrow n & J. Burkholder n

author keywords: chromosomes; dinoflagellate; meiosis; meiotic prophase; mitosis; nuclear cyclosis; palintomy; phagotrophy; sexual reproduction
TL;DR: Stages indicating a completed sexual cycle were uncommon or absent in clonal cultures but were relatively abundant in the mixed clone culture and self‐sterility factors apparently influenced sexuality. (via Semantic Scholar)

2002 journal article

Flow cytometric determination of zoospore DNA content and population DNA distribution in cultured Pfiesteria spp. (Pyrrhophyta)

JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL MARINE BIOLOGY AND ECOLOGY, 267(1), 35–51.

By: M. Parrow n & J. Burkholder n

author keywords: cell cycle; dinoflagellates; flow cytometry; P. piscicida; P. shumwayae; SYTOX green
TL;DR: Data are consistent with the hypothesis that P. shumwayae zoospores are interphasic cells, and mitosis in zoospore cultures of this species predominantly occurs as benthic or adherent non-motile division cysts, which would ramify the population dynamics of the two Pfiesteria species.

Grazing by microzooplankton on Pfiesteria piscicida cultures with different histories of toxicity

AQUATIC MICROBIAL ECOLOGY, 28(1), 79–85.

By: D. Stoecker *, M. Parrow n, J. Burkholder n & H. Glasgow n

author keywords: Pfiesteria piscicida; zoospores; toxicity; microzooplankton; grazing
TL;DR: The data suggest that, although microzooplankton grazing on non-toxic zoospores can be a significant source of mortality to planktonic populations of P. piscicida, grazing on toxic or very recently toxic zoospore is relatively low. (via Semantic Scholar)
