Inorganic carbon acquisition by <i>Chlamydomonas</i> <i>acidophila</i> across a pH range
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Chlamydomonas acidophila Negoro had a higher maximum growth rate upon aeration with 5% CO 2 (v/v) than in nonaerated conditions at an external pH above 2. In medium with a pH of 1.0 or 2.0, a decrease in the maximum growth rate was observed upon CO 2 aeration in comparison with nonaerated conditions. At both very low and very high external pH conditions, an induction of external carbonic anhydrase was detected; this being more pronounced in CO 2 -aerated cells than in nonaerated cells. It is therefore suggested that the induction of carbonic anhydrase is part of a stress response in Chlamydomonas acidophila. Comparison of some physiological characteristics of Chlamydomonas acidophila acclimated at pH 2.65 and at pH 6.0, revealed that CO 2 aeration increased gross maximum photosynthesis at both pHs, whereas respiration, light acclimation, and photoinhibition were not effected. At pH 2.65, Chlamydomonas acidophila was found to have a carbon-concentrating mechanism under nonaerated conditions, whereas it did not under CO 2 -aerated conditions at pH 6. The affinity for CO 2 use in O 2 production was not dependent on CO 2 aeration, but it was much lower at pH 6 than it was at pH 2.65. CO 2 kinetic characteristics indicate that the photosynthesis of Chlamydomonas acidophila in its natural environment is not limited by inorganic carbon.Key words: Chlamydomonas acidophila, CCM, external carbonic anhydrase, photosynthesis, growth rates, pH stress, CO 2 .

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
