Biodiversity in the Marine Plankton - Tintinnid ciliates are excellent models to study biodiversity. In the Bay of Villefranche a single liter of seawater may contain only 25 tintinnids but of 10 different species.]]> John Dolan photo Tue, 15 Mar 2016 17:42:33 +0100 http://gallery.obs-vlfr.fr/gallery2/v/Aquaparadox/Tins/Intro/EutinPlateColor.jpg.html http://gallery.obs-vlfr.fr/gallery2/v/Aquaparadox/Tins/Intro/EutinPlateColor.jpg.html
In ciliates reproduction (B&C) is divorced from sexual recombination (D&E). 'A' is a trophont (feeding stage) cell, 'B' an early stage of cell division with a new mouth developing from an oral primordium (OP), 'C' a newly divided cell- the top cell will swim away to construct a new shell, 'D' two cells in an early stage of conjugation, 'E' a conjugating pair which has formed a cytoplasmic bridge (CB) for the exchange of genetic material.
