Harmful Algal Blooms (2015, background): “However, chrysophytes can be an important source of unsaturated fatty acids such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) (20:5ω3) and DHA (22:6ω3), which are essential for planktonic grazers (Brett and Müller-Navarra, 1997; Taipale et al., 2013).”
Production, distribution, and abundance of long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids: a fundamental dichotomy between freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems (2015, background): “Yet terrestrial animals (most studies focus on humans or human models) are known to be poor at desaturating and elongating ALA and LNA to their LC-PUFA products (Supplementary data, Table S11).”
A fundamental dichotomy in long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid abundance between and within marine and terrestrial ecosystems (2017, background): “For 418 this reason, having elevated n-3 LC-PUFA levels may be a mechanism used to survive in polar 419 regions, where organisms typically live at temperatures near the freezing point for much of the 420 year (Thomas and Dieckmann 2002).”
