Morphophysiological Analysis of the Hierarchical Structure of Cystoseira barbata Thalli

Abstract: The hierarchical structure of the thallus of the brown alga Cystoseira barbata from the Black Sea and the relationship between the structure and apparent photosynthesis were studied. The thalli were selected for measurements in different months of the year from three regions of the Crimean shore. The morphological analysis was successively carried out at several levels of the thallus's structure: at the level of axes of different orders, at the level of separate branches, morphological divisions (sum of the ma… Show more

“…The parameter of a specific surface (S/W) is widely used in the study of macro- phytes' morphology, where S is algae surface area, W is algae weight (MINICHEVA, 1991;FIRSOV, KHAILOV, 1979). To estimate functioning of algae species of different taxons we elaborated (OSKOLSKAYA, 1989) and applied for the first time in the present work the morphological parameter S o .…”

“…Two highly important parameters of the thallus, which are closely related to its external chemical exchange, namely the surface area and the relative surface area, were not calculated in the present study, but they have been computed and discussed in detail in another paper devoted to Cystoseira (Firsov and Khailov 1979).…”

“…Indeed, the division by the entire mass implies a tacit assumption that the functional activities of different structures of the thallus are the same. Yet, in Cystoseira, the photosynthetic rates of zero order axes (main stems) and of third and fourth order axes, of which Cystoseira branches largely consist, differ by 4-to 5-fold (Firsov Khailov 1979). Even in old thalli that part of the bio m as s which pertains to third and fourth order branches retains high rates of carbon flow.…”
