A molecular method for detecting the epiphyte community on marine macroalgae was developed by using PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis. Selective amplification of 16S rRNA gene fragments from either cyanobacteria or algal plastids improved the detection of minor epiphytes. Two phylotypes of Acaryochloris, a chlorophyll d-containing cyanobacterium, were found not only on red macroalgae but also on green and brown macroalgae.
通过使用聚合酶链反应-变性梯度凝胶电泳技术,开发了一种用于检测大型海洋藻类附生植物群落的分子方法。从蓝细菌或藻类质体中选择性扩增16S rRNA基因片段,提高了对小型附生植物的检测能力。不仅在红色大型藻类上,而且在绿色和棕色大型藻类上都发现了含叶绿素d的蓝细菌——原绿球藻的两种系统型。
