Bioconversion of fatty acids at the basis of marine food webs: insights from a compound-specific stable isotope analysis (2012, background): “The copepod must have assimilated the small amount of available 18:2ω6 and bioconverted it to 20:4ω6, which is a pivotal FA for the physiological functions of copepods (Parrish 2009).”
Fatty acid composition as biomarkers of freshwater microalgae: analysis of 37 strains of microalgae in 22 genera and in seven classes (2013, background): “Because animals (e.g. crustaceans and fish as well as humans) cannot synthesize ω-3 and ω6 FAs de novo, they need to obtain these molecules from their diet, and therefore some PUFAs are considered to be essential FAs (EFAs, see Table 1) or ‘essential nutrients’ (Parrish 2009) for animals.”
Essential Biomolecules in Food Webs (2019, background): “Overall, the dietary LCPUFA content is critical for growth, reproduction, and neural development for many aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates as well as vertebrates, including humans (e.g., Stanley-Samuelson et al., 1988; Parrish, 2009; Hulbert and Abbott, 2012).”
Production, distribution, and abundance of long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids: a fundamental dichotomy between freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems (2015, background): “While consumption of the n-3 and n-6 precursor is an essential requirement for all vertebrates, consuming pre-formed EPA, DHA, and ARA is highly advantageous for many vertebrates, especially if they have a limited ability to synthesize them (Parrish 2009).”
A fundamental dichotomy in long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid abundance between and within marine and terrestrial ecosystems (2017, background): “…of marine-derived LC-PUFA has been the focus of a plethora of studies for decades (e.g., Brockerhoff et al. 1963; Ackman et al. 1968; Dalsgaard et al. 2003; Budge et al. 2006; Arts et al. 2009; Parrish et al. 2015), a more global inventory of marine organism PUFA contents has yet to be compiled.”
Lipids in Marine Ecosystems (2013, unknown): “EFAs and sterols are essential nutrients in marine bivalves and crustaceans [23, 24] while EFAs”
The Various Roles of Fatty Acids (2018, background): “By changing the FA composition of the membrane phospholipids, the cells try to maintain membrane fluidity through a mechanism called “homeoviscous adaptation” [26,27].”
