Induction of sunscreen compounds in Antarctic macroalgae by different radiation conditions (2002, background): “Benthic macroalgae are sometimes exposed to detrimental ultraviolet-B radiation (UVBR; 280–315 nm), affecting biomolecules, such as proteins and nucleic acids, by so-called direct mechanisms (Vincent and Neale 2000).”
The distribution of dimethylsulfoniopropionate in tropical Pacific coral reef invertebrates (2006, background): “Reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can cause molecular, cellular, and physiological damage, are produced in response to a variety of stressors, including elevated photosynthetically active radiation and temperature (Lesser et al. 1990), and ultraviolet radiation (Vincent and Neale 2000).”
Cyanobacterial Responses to UV Radiation (2012, background): “There have been several reviews in recent years on the effects of UV radiation (UVR) on microorganisms (e.g. Castenholz and Garcia-Pichel 2000 ; Vincent and Neale 2000 ; Whitehead et al. 2000 ; Roy 2000 ; Häder 2001 ; Cockell 2001 ; Day and Neale 2002 ; Shick and Dunlap 2002 ; Hockberger 2002 ;…”
Acclimation to elevated carbon dioxide and ultraviolet radiation in the diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana: Effects on growth, photosynthesis, and spectral sensitivity of photoinhibition (2008, background): “Short wavelengths of solar radiation below 400 nm have enough energy to break molecular bonds and damage phytoplankton cells (reviewed in Vincent and Neale 2000).”
Increased sensitivity to ultraviolet radiation in nitrogen‐limited dinoflagellates: Photoprotection and repair (2002, background): “It is not known how this cross-section changes in N-limited cultures, primarily because the identity of the chromophore(s) involved in damage to the photosynthetic apparatus is unknown, though there are several candidates (Vincent and Neale 2000).”
PAR and UVBR effects on photosynthesis, viability, growth and DNA in different life stages of two coexisting Gigartinales: implications for recruitment and zonation pattern (2004, background): “Vertical bars are standard deviations (SD), n = 5 Roleda et al.: UV-B effects on developmental stages of Gigartinales tiser action, or (3) by oxygen radical production in addition to singlet oxygen (Vincent & Neale 2000).”
Pigments and photoacclimation processes (2011, background): “Two of the major targets of UV damage in phytoplankton are the photosystem (PS) II reaction centre complex and the carbon-fixing enzyme Rubisco (cf. review by Vincent and Neale, 2000).”
Availability of ammonium influences photosynthesis and the accumulation of mycosporine-like amino acids in two Porphyra species (Bangiales, Rhodophyta) (2005, background): “Growth, survival, pigmentation, nitrogen fixation, phycobilisome assembly, carbon uptake and membrane permeability have been shown to be affected by UV-B radiation (280–315 nm) in different organisms (Vincent and Neale 2000; Altamirano et al. 2000).”
Effects of UVB radiation and salt stress on growth, pigments and antioxidative defence of the marine diatom Cylindrotheca closterium (2003, background): “UV radiation also stimulates the intracellular active oxygen production in plants and algae (Foyer et al. 1994, Mallick & Mohn 2000, Vincent & Neale 2000).”
Utilization of solar UV radiation by coastal phytoplankton assemblages off SE China when exposed to fast mixing (2003, background): “…DNA damage (Karentz et al. 1991a); neutral, with many planktonic organisms being rather resistant to UVR (Cabrera et al. 1997); or even deleterious, with UVR affecting various targets within the cell (e.g. Photosystem II, DNA, proteins, etc.) (Neale 1987, Häder 1997, Vincent & Neale 2000).”
Assessment of oxidative stress in the planktonic diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana in response to UVA and UVB radiation (2002, background): “Synthesis of UV-absorbing pigments (Helbling et al., 1996; Jeffrey et al., 1999; Bracher and Wiencke, 2000) as well as stimulation of the antioxidative defence against UV-induced release of active oxygen (Häder, 1997; Vincent and Neale, 2000) are important protection mechanisms.”
