    Abstract: Sometimes the waters of seas, rivers, or lakes turn an odd color, becoming brown, red, or green. These colors are actually those of tiny algae that are invisible to the naked eye—but those algae are reproducing so fast that they stain the water. These events are called algal blooms, and they can be harmful because they produce toxins that kill aquatic animals and can cause poisoning in humans. Our group investigated the harmful algal blooms that have been occurring regularly in Lampung Bay, Indonesia, since 2012. We tracked down the algal species responsible for these blooms by analyzing seawater and the seabed sediments of the bay. We identified one species of algae, a dinoflagellate called Margalefidinium polykrikoides , as the culprit. This species can take on multiple shapes, which makes its identification particularly difficult. Improving our knowledge about this algal species will eventually help us understand what triggers harmful algal blooms and how to prevent them.

    Abstract: Dinoflagellates possess plastids that are diverse in both pigmentation and evolutionary background. One of the plastid types found in dinoflagellates is pigmented with chlorophylls a and b (Chl a + b ) and originated from the endosymbionts belonging to a small group of green algae, Pedinophyceae. The Chl a + b -containing plastids have been found in three distantly related dinoflagellates Lepidodinium spp., strain MGD, and strain TGD, and were proposed to be derived from separate partnerships between a dinoflagellate (host) and a pedinophycean green alga (endosymbiont). Prior to this study, a plastid genome sequence was only available for L. chlorophorum , which was reported to bear the features that were not found in that of the pedinophycean green alga Pedinomonas minor , a putative close relative of the endosymbiont that gave rise to the current Chl a + b -containing plastid. In this study, we sequenced the plastid genomes of strains MGD and TGD to compare with those of L. chlorophorum as well as pedinophycean green algae. The mapping of the RNA-seq reads on the corresponding plastid genome identified RNA editing on plastid gene transcripts in the three dinoflagellates. Further, the comparative plastid genomics revealed that the plastid genomes of the three dinoflagellates achieved several features, which are not found in or much less obvious than the pedinophycean plastid genomes determined to date, in parallel.

    Abstract: To investigate the distribution of Heterocapsa including a harmful species H. circularisquama, cells were surveyed in three Vietnamese coasts, Ha Long Bay, Hue and Phu Quoc Island in 2006. Cells of Heterocapsa were detected from Lang Co Lagoon and adjacent coast in Hue. Cell of the species possesses thecal plates corresponding to the typical of Heterocapsa. Under TEM, body scales approximately 500 nm in diameter are observed. The scale structure is similar to that of H. illdefina, however, number of the marginal spine is different. We concluded it is an undescribed Heterocapsa species possessing a new body scale ultrastructure.

    Abstract: In Asia, four harmful raphidophyte species, Chattonella malayana , C. marina , C. subsalsa , and C. tenuiplastida , coexist in the tropical waters but only C. marina was detected in temperate waters. This occurrence pattern pointed to a potentially distinct ecophysiological niche occupancy and possible species dispersion. The growth physiology of these species isolated from tropical Southeast Asia was investigated using unialgal cultures in ten temperatures (13.0–35.5°C) and five salinities (15–35) to better understand the factors driving their distribution. The highest maximum specific growth rates were observed in C. subsalsa (0.65 ± 0.01 d -1 ), followed by C. malayana (0.47 ± 0.03 d -1 ), C. marina (0.45 ± 0.02 d -1 ), and C. tenuiplastida (0.39 ± 0.01 d -1 ). Their optimal temperatures were 28.0, 30.5, 25.5, and 30.5°C, respectively, of which C. marina preferred colder water. C. subsalsa exhibited a wider growth temperature range (20.5–35.5°C), followed by C. marina (20.5–30.5°C), C. tenuiplastida (23.0–33.0°C), and C. malayana (25.5–33.0°C). Optimal salinities were similar between C. subsalsa and C. malayana (30), and between C. marina and C. tenuiplastida (25), but C. subsalsa and C. marina exhibited a similar growth salinity range of 15–35, while C. malayana and C. tenuiplastida was 20–35. High values of F v /F m were observed in C. subsalsa and C. marina ( & gt; 0.5) in all tested conditions, but F v /F m of C. malayana and C. tenuiplastida were significantly lower at 20.5°C. All four species achieved a maximum cell density of & gt; 10 4 cells mL -1 in their optimal conditions. Optimal temperatures in C. subsalsa and C. marina were identical to previous reports. The high adaptability of C. subsalsa in various temperatures and salinities suggests its high competitiveness and bloom potential. The high adaptability of C. marina in colder waters compared to other species likely contributes to its wide distribution in the temperate Asian waters. The narrow temperature window of C. malayana and C. tenuiplastida suggests their endemicity and limited distribution in the tropical waters. This study provides evidence about the occurrences and bloom potential of Chattonella spp. in Asia, but the endemicity versus dispersion issue remains unresolved.

    Abstract: Molecular biological techniques support the identification of microalgae of Vietnam. Prorocentrum, Alexandrium and Pseudo-nitzschia are main harmful and toxic microalgal genera found in Vietnam coastal waters. The results of morphology and nucleotide sequence analysis of 18S rDNA and ITS 1-5.8S-ITS2 gene obtained from genomic DNA have shown that the Prorocentrum sp. 3 (isolated from Cat Ba, Hai Phong on October, 2004), Alexandrium sp. 5 (collected on October, 2004) and Pseudo-nitzschia sp. G3 (colleted in Do Son, Hai Phong on December, 2005) belonging to Prorocentrum mexicanum (the homological percent of 99.9% with sequencing of P mexicanum in Genbank ofY16232, AY886763), A. minutum (99.8% - AJ535388, DQ168664) and Pseudo-nitzschia pungens (98.8% - AY544769, DQ166533), respectively. The obtained results indicated that the exceptional fresh samples, for Prorocentrum genus which may be preserved at 25% ethanol, 4% formaldehyde, 1% glutaraldehyde, while Alexandrium genus ó at 25% ethanol, and Pseudo-nitzschia genus - 4% formaldehyde and 1% glutaraldehyde for two weeks have not effected on their analysis of sequences generated by Single Cell PCR method. In these studied samples, the nucleotide sequences obtained from genomic DNA and Single-cell PCR methods were the same with the homological percent more than 99%. Application of this method to samples collected from Phu Quoc Island, southern part of Vietnam, in 27-29, June, 2006 showed that Prorocentrum mican and P sigmoisdes were found.

    Abstract: Dinoflagellate is one of the most diverse and pervasive protists and a fundamental player in the marine food web dynamics and biogeochemical cycles. While possessing different nutritional strategies from purely autotrophy or heterotrophy to mixotrophy, some of them are also known as toxic harmful algal bloom (HAB) formers over the world. Despite their ordinariness, their diversity and biogeography are understudied in the open ocean compared with coastal region. As the first metabarcoding survey covering the Kuroshio current region from the offshore of Okinawa to the south of Honshu, we investigated the distribution of free-living dinoflagellates using the hypervariable V4 and V9 regions on 18S rRNA and their relation to ambient environments influenced by this oligotrophic but highly productive current in the northwest Pacific Ocean. We observed community structures differentiated by depth and nutrient concentrations. Most species annotated are autotrophic or mixotrophic and had a distribution correlated to warmer surface water, whereas heterotrophic species correlated to high nutrient levels or deeper layer. Our results also confirmed the overall high genetic diversity of dinoflagellates that decreased with depth and onshore. Most species present at stations offshore, and the relative abundance of HAB assemblages was lower at nutrient-rich stations on the continental shelf than stations influenced by the Kuroshio current, exhibiting the role of the Kuroshio transporting dinoflagellates including HAB species. To fully understand the dynamics of dinoflagellate communities in marine ecosystems, further seasonal monitoring is foremost for correlating dinoflagellates and environmental factors while completing the reference genomic database.
