Generalized size scaling of metabolic rates based on single-cell measurements with freshwater phytoplankton

Anders Meibom, Andrea Rinaldo, Amos Maritan, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Andrea Giometto, Silvia Zaoli

Kleiber's law describes the scaling of metabolic rate with body size across several orders of magnitude in size and across taxa and is widely regarded as a fundamental law in biology. The physiological origins of Kleiber's law are still debated and general ...

Biomineralization in Newly Settled Recruits of the Scleractinian Coral Pocillopora damicornis

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski, Isabelle Domart-Coulon, Melany Melissa Gilis

Calcium carbonate biomineralization of scleractinian coral recruits is fundamental to the construction of reefs and their survival under stress from global and local environmental change. Establishing a baseline for how normal, healthy coral recruits initi ...

Assimilation, translocation, and utilization of carbon between photosynthetic symbiotic dinoflagellates and their planktic foraminifera host

Anders Meibom, Emmanuelle Geslin, Charlotte Madeleine Nicole Lekieffre

Some species of planktic foraminifera inhabiting oligotrophic surface water environments are in an obligate symbiotic relationship with dinoflagellate microalgae, which can assimilate carbon (C) through photosynthesis. However, the mechanism and dynamics o ...

26Mg labeling of the sea urchin regenerating spine: Insights into echinoderm biomineralization process

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski, Christophe Kopp

This paper reports the results of the first dynamic labeling experiment with regenerating spines of sea urchins Paracentrotus lividus using the stable isotope Mg-26 and NanoSIMS high-resolution isotopic imaging, which provide a direct information about the ...

Application of imaging mass spectrometry approaches to facilitate metal-based anticancer drug research

Paul Joseph Dyson, Anders Meibom

Mass spectrometry imaging is being increasingly used in metal-based anticancer drug development to study elemental and/or molecular drug distributions in different biological systems. The main analytical tools employed are SIMS (especially nanoSIMS), LA-IC ...

Role of photosymbiosis in the Late Triassic expansion of shallow-water Scleractinia

Anders Meibom

Since their appearance in the Anisian (ca. 240 Ma) scleractinian corals rapidly diversified and expandedacross shallow marine environments, becoming the main builders of reefs. This ecological success coralsowe to their symbiotic relationship with photosyn ...

The mesoglea buffers the physico-chemical microenvironment of photosymbionts in the upside-down jellyfish Cassiopea sp

Anders Meibom, Niclas Heidelberg Lyndby

IntroductionThe jellyfish Cassiopea has a conspicuous lifestyle, positioning itself upside-down on sediments in shallow waters thereby exposing its photosynthetic endosymbionts (Symbiodiniaceae) to light. Several studies have shown how the photosymbionts b ...

Kleptoplast distribution, photosynthetic efficiency and sequestration mechanisms in intertidal benthic foraminifera

Anders Meibom, Charlotte Madeleine Nicole Lekieffre, Emmanuelle Geslin

Foraminifera are ubiquitously distributed in marine habitats, playing a major role in marine sediment carbon sequestration and the nitrogen cycle. They exhibit a wide diversity of feeding and behavioural strategies (heterotrophy, autotrophy and mixotrophy) ...

Post-mortem recrystallization of biogenic amorphous calcium carbonate guided by the inherited macromolecular framework

Anders Meibom, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski

In contrast to abiotically formed carbonates, biogenetic carbonates have been observed to be nanocomposite, organo-mineral structures, the basic build-blocks of which are particles of quasi-uniform size (10–100 nm) organized into complex higher-order hiera ...

Photosynthesis from stolen chloroplasts can support sea slug reproductive fitness

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig

Some sea slugs are able to steal functional chloroplasts (kleptoplasts) from their algal food sources, but the role and relevance of photosynthesis to the animal host remain controversial. While some researchers claim that kleptoplasts are slowly digestibl ...

Fossil biocalcite remains open to isotopic exchange with seawater for tens of millions of years

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Jaroslaw Hubert Stolarski, Cristina Martin Olmos, Arthur Adams, Deyanira Graciela Cisneros Lazaro, Sylvain Louis Bernard

Fossilized remains of marine calcifiers constitute the physical basis for reconstructions of both deep ocean and sea-surface temperatures going back millions of years, but paleoclimate records derived from their isotope and trace-element chemistry can be b ...

A method to disentangle and quantify host anabolic turnover in photosymbiotic holobionts with subcellular resolution

Anders Meibom, Arnaud Comment, Maoz Fine, Emma Mary Gibbin, Guilhem Maurice Louis Banc-Prandi

A wide range of organisms host photosynthesizing symbionts. In these animals the metabolic exchange between host and symbionts has prevented in situ host anabolic turnover to be studied without the confounding effect of translocated photosynthates. Using t ...

A new model for biomineralization and trace-element signatures of Foraminifera tests

Anders Meibom

The Mg/Ca ratio of Foraminifera calcium carbonate tests is used as proxy for seawater temperature and widely applied to reconstruct global paleo-climatic changes. However, the mechanisms involved in the carbonate biomineralization process are poorly unders ...

Symbiotic nutrient exchange enhances the long-term survival of cassiosomes, the autonomous stinging-cell structures of Cassiopea

Anders Meibom, Cristina Martin Olmos, Nils Rädecker, Claudia Isabella Pogoreutz, Guilhem Maurice Louis Banc-Prandi, Gaëlle Delphine Toullec, Niclas Heidelberg Lyndby

Medusae of the widely distributed upside-down jellyfish Cassiopea release autonomous, mobile stinging structures. These so-called cassiosomes play a role in predator defense and prey capture, and are major contributors to “contactless” stinging incidents i ...

Plagioclase Glomerocrysts: taking the pulse of volcanic eruptions

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig

Volcanic eruptions result from complex interplay of magmatic processes including the ascent and storage of magma in the crust, volatile exsolution and crystallization. The dynamics of crystallization in shallow subvolcanic systems and the consequences of i ...

Short-Term Thermal Acclimation Modifies the Metabolic Condition of the Coral Holobiont

Anders Meibom, Thomas Krüger, Emma Mary Gibbin, Julia Marie Jeanne Yvonne Bodin

The nutritional symbiosis between coral hosts and photosynthetic dinoflagellates is fundamental to the functioning of coral reefs. Rising seawater temperatures destabilize this relationship, resulting in drastic declines in world-wide coral cover. Thermal ...

Scalable semantic 3D mapping of coral reefs with deep learning

Anders Meibom, Devis Tuia, Guilhem Maurice Louis Banc-Prandi, Jonathan Paul Sauder

Coral reefs are among the most diverse ecosystems on our planet, and essential to the livelihood of hundreds of millions of people who depend on them for food security, income from tourism and coastal protection. Unfortunately, most coral reefs are existen ...

Coalescence and directed anisotropic growth of starch granule initials in subdomains of Arabidopsis thaliana chloroplasts

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Christophe Kopp

Starch is the major form of energy storage in plant cells and forms discrete, semi-crystalline granules within plastids. Here the authors use electron tomography and nanoSIMS to show that Arabidopsis starch granules initiate in stromal pockets between thyl ...
