Abstract

The combined effects of ammonium concentration and UV radiation on the red alga Porphyra columbina (Montagne) from the Patagonian coast (Chubut, Argentina) was determined using short‐term (less than a week) experimentation. Discs of P. columbina were incubated with three ammonium concentrations (0, 50, and 300 μM NH 4 Cl) in anilluminated chamber (PAR=300 μmol photons·m−2·s−1, UVA=15 W·m−2, UVB=0.7 W·m−2) at 15°C. Algae incubated at 300 μM ammonium showed a significant increase (P<0.05) in the concentration of mycosporine‐like amino acids (MAAs) compared with the initial value or with the other ammonium treatments. The increase of MAAs was, however, a function of the quality of irradiance received, with a higher increase in samples exposed to UVA compared with UVB (29% and 5% increase, respectively). However, UVB radiation was more effective in inducing MAA synthesis per unit energy received by the algae. Samples exposed to PAR only had an intermediate increase in MAA concentration of 16%. Chl a concentration decreased through the incubation with the greatest decrease at high ammonium concentration. Phycobiliprotein (BP) decreased through time with the smallest decrease occurring at high ammonium concentration. Photoinhibition (as a decrease of optimal quantum yield) was significantly greater under nitrogen‐deprived conditions than that under replete ammonium levels. Maximal gross photosynthesis (GP max), as oxygen evolution, and maximal electron transport rate (ETR max), as chl fluorescence, increased with the ammonium concentration. Positive relationships between maximal GP or ETR and pigment ratios (BP/chl a and MAAs/chl a) and negative relationships with chl a concentration were found.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
