摘要: The dinoflagellate Akashiwo sanguinea is a cosmopolitan species which frequently causes dense blooms in estuaries and coasts around the world, while mechanism regulating formation of algal bloom remains unclear. To further explore physiological response A. sartguinea during blooms, we studied effects various nitrogenous nutrients on growth nitrogen assimilation enzymes laboratory trials. Our results indicated that was able to grow well multiple N substrates within appropriate ranges concentrations. grew faster NH4+, it showed greatest affinity for urea. intracellular were regulated adapt environmental nutrient conditions stages: nitrate reductase. (NR) induced when grown NO inhibited by NH4+ urea, glutamine synthetase (GS) expressed constitutively all sources, urease up-regulated NO3- urea but down-regulated NH4+. Meanwhile, activities decreased with sanguinea, GS activity significant positive correlation rates. extremely high assessed kinetics assimilation, indicating its competitive advantage over other phytoplankton species. facilitates utilization reduced N, implies capability forming environments where common source.
