Stabili L. , C. Gravili, S. M. Tredici, F. Boero and P. Alifano, Association of a luminous Vibrio sp., taxonomically related to Vibrio harveyi, with Clytia linearis (Thornely, 1900) (Hydrozoa, Cnidaria). Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology. 2010.
doi:10.1016/j.jembe.2010.10.004;Abstract: A previously unknown association between a luminous Vibrio sp., taxonomically related to the species Vibrio harveyi and a common member of the shallow/mid water communities of the Mediterranean Sea, the hydrozoan Clytia linearis is described. All the specimens of C. linearis observed under blue light excitation showed both a natural luminescence appearing as a series of fine dots due to clytin, and a clear fluorescence on the external side of the perisarc around the colonies due to the presence of luminous bacteria. Luminous bacteria were isolated from the surface of C. linearis, their phenotypic characterization as isolates was performed by several morphological, biochemical, and cultural tests, completed with 16S rDNA sequence analysis. All the isolates were referred to a Vibrio sp. taxonomically related to V. harveyi. The association of the V. harveyi-related species with C. linearis, as already suggested for another hydroid, Aglaophenia octodonta, could be explained with the activity of these bacteria of feeding on the chitinous structures present in these hydroids. Moreover, the adhesion of the luminous bacterium (here referred to as Vibrio sp. CL1) on C. linearis may contribute to the survival of this Vibrio species in the marine environment providing a suitable growth habitat.

; M. V. Lomonosov Moscow State University (MSU), Russia The experimental data were obtained that showed that one of the most important processes of ecological repairing (restoring water quality during the process of removal of suspended matter by aquatic organisms) is inhibited by a pollutant (a xenobiotic), which points to some degree of similarity or analogy with the processes of repairing at the molecular-genetic level. The repairing at the molecular-genetic level can also be inhibited by some xenobiotics and have some other attributes that are analogous to those of ecological repairing. The xenobiotics that produced those negative effects on the processes of the ecological repairing of water quality included some synthetic surfactants, detergents, and metals. New experimental data on the effects of tetradecyltrimethyl ammonium bromide on the marine bivalves, mussels (Mytilus edulis

Ostroumov Faculty of Biology, Lomonosov Moscow State University, Vorob’evy Gory, Moscow, 119991 Russia Abstract.—Earlier, the author published two books and some papers, in which he described conceptual foundations of new scientific disciplines—biochemical ecology and biochemical hydrobiology. These trends in research include studies of the role of chemical substances in interorganismal interactions, in communication and regulation of supraorganismal systems. Another part of biochemical ecology concerns studies of the destiny and transformation of external chemical substances when they interact with the organisms. Both natural and man-made compounds are interesting for biochemical ecology. The basic concepts of biochemical ecology include ecological chemomediators and ecological chemoregulators that have already been included in the body of modern conceptions and are used in modern ecological literature. Application of biochemical ecology to aquatic ecosystems creates the basis for development of biochemical hydrobiology. DOI: 10.1134/S1995425508020100. This paper is both a concise summary and continuation of the book: Ostroumov S.A. Introduction to Biochemical Ecology (Moscow, Moscow University Press).

/; Концентрации тяжелых металлов Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb в воде экспериментальных микрокосмов измеряли методом инверсионной вольтамперометрии. В некоторых микрокосмах инкубировали водные растения ( макрофиты) Ceratophyllum demersum (роголистник). Измеряемые этим методом концентрации металлов в воде микрокосмов с макрофитами снижались значительно быстрее, чем в воде контрольных микрокосмов без растений. Для всех четырех металлов установлен факт положительной роли растений как фактора, способствующего уменьшению концентрации металлов в воде. Выявленные факты вносят вклад в научную базу разработки инновационной экобиотехнологии (фитотехнологии, фиторемедиации) для улучшения качества воды и ее очищения от тяжелых металлов. http://www.maikonline.com/maik/showArticle.do?auid=VAFZC61RXH; PII: S0869565209260338; Реферат на англ. языке/ ABSTRACT: Ostroumov S.A., Shestakova T.V. Decreasing in the measurable concentrations of Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb in the water of the experimental systems with Ceratophyllum demersum: phytoremediation potential // Doklady Akademii Nauk. 2009, vol. 428, No. 2, p. 282–285. Presented by Academician G.V. Dobrovol’skii. Using the method of inversion voltamperometry, the concentrations of the heavy metals Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb were measured in the water of the experimental microcosms. Aquatic macrophytes Ceratophyllum demersum were incubated in some of the microcosms. The measured concentrations of all four metals decreased in the microcosms with macrophytes much faster than in the control microcosms without any macrophytes. http://www.maikonline.com/maik/showArticle.do?auid=VAFZC61RXH&lang=en; Ostroumov S.A., Shestakova T.V.

Finding: aquatic plants C. demersum induced a removal of the heavy metals Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb from water.
