Photosystem I P700 chlorophyll a apoprotein A1 as PCR marker to identify diatoms and their associated lineage

Abstract: DIATOMS are unicellular microscopic eukaryotic algae that are found in both fresh and marine water. They are primary producers among phytoplanktons and responsible for fixing almost 25% of the atmospheric CO 2 (Ramachandra et al., 2009). Besides this, diatoms contribute to one fifth of the global biomass primary production (Leblanc et al., 2012). Unlike other algae, they have a unique feature of having cell wall being made up of silica which could tolerate harsh environmental conditions (Round et al., 1990). I… Show more

“…Diatoms are golden brown algae, responsible for fixing about 25% of atmospheric CO 2 [ 50 ]. They exist in different shapes and sizes ranging from 2 to 200 µm which are identified both morphologically and at molecular level [ 51 ]. There are about 20,000 species of diatoms with pores arranged in a beautiful and rigid walled nanoarchitecture [ 52–54 ].…”
