Project description:Sargassum is one of the most diverse brown algal genus with more than 150 known species, mostly benthic and few pelagic species. They contribute significantly to global primary production and serve as important habitat for wide range of marine organisms. Sargassum vulgare is one of the dominant habitat forming species along Mediterranean coast. Despite their huge ecological importance, it is relatively unknown how they will respond under future global climate change scenario. This work used de novo transcriptome sequencing approach to understand the molecular response of S. vulgare to chronic acidification at the shallow underwater volcanic CO2 vents off Ischia Island, Italy. Keywords: brown algae, Sargassum, de novo transcriptome, ocean acidification, CO2 vents.
Project description:Surface seawater samples collected from the Atlantic Ocean. Three types of samples were collected: seawater inside a patch of Sargassum ('in'), seawater in the downstream slick of Sargassum ('slick'), and seawater outside the patch ('out'). Samples were collected by hand from a small boat, and DOM was extracted using solid phase extraction with Bond Elut PPL cartridges. Both positive and negative ion mode data are available.

Project description:Seawater drowning is a leading cause of accidental injury and death, and the resulting acute lung injury (ALI) is a serious clinical syndrome for which there are no effective treatments. This aim is to investigate the potential mechanism of seawater drowning-induced ALI.
