摘要

Abstract

The epizoic diatoms

especifically those living at the body surface of copepods has not garnered sufficient attention. This study focuses on the copepod

Pseudodiaptomus

annandalei

and three epizoic diatom species isolated from its body surface:

Pseudofalcula

hyalina

Haslea

sp.

and

Tabularia

sp. The research explored the physiological and biochemical characteristics of diatoms under co-cultivation conditions with

annandalei

and different species of epizoic diatoms

along with variations in copepod survival rates. Results reveal that the growth rate

cell density

and chlorop

hyll-

content of the three epizoic diatoms were enhanced by

annandalei

. The photosynthesis of epizoic diatoms

particularly the photochemical efficiency of PSⅡ (

) of

hyalina

was positively influenced by

annandalei

. The impact of

annandalei

on biochemical compositions exhibited species-specific characteristics. Under co-culture conditions

the content of polysaccharides and proteins in the colloidal exopolymeric substance (CEPS) of

hyalina

and

Haslea

sp. increased

so did the intracellular protein content of

Tabularia

sp. The attachment of

hyalina

was most significantly influenced by

annandalei

followed by

Haslea

sp.

and then

Tabularia

sp.

likely due to the increased uronic acid content of

hyalina

under co-culture conditions. Moreover

the three epizoic diatoms might have served as food sources for

annandalei

as evidenced by the higher survival of copepods. The release of nitrate and phosphate from

annandalei

contributed to the nutrition for the growth of epizoic diatoms

indicating that the bottom-up effect resulting from

annandalei

excretion nutrition was greater than the top-down effect from predation.
