Encystment probability and encystment rate: new terms to quantitatively describe formation of resting cysts in planktonic microbial populations

Abstract: Many dinoflagellates and other groups of phytoplankton have benthic resting cysts as part of their life cycle. Details of transitions among life cycle stages are few in the literature and often do not meet the rigorous standards needed for across-species generalisations or model parameterisation. One regularly reported but poorly understood aspect is the cyst yield, a quantitative characterisation of cyst formation in relation to the size of the vegetative population. The literature provides various formulae f… Show more

“…the sexual cycle, are important in understanding dinoflagellate ecology. Recently a method was proposed to quantitatively describe the formation of cysts in terms of encystment probability and encystment rate (Olli et al 2004). This method was based on observations that had been made in batch cultures of the dinoflagellate Scrippsiella lachrymosa Lewis in which a high encystment success was recorded (Olli 2002, Olli & Anderson 2002.…”
