Abstract
    Ammonium-limited cultures of Skeletonema costatum were grown at dilution rates from 0.019 to 0.038 h-1 at an average salinity of 22.4{per thousand} For a few days cultures were exposed to a freshwater pulse. When salinity was decreased to 8.6{per thousand} (average minimum) photosynthesis and cell division were inhibited. Both in vivo and DCMU-enhanced fluorescence per cell were statistically constant: photosystems I and II were not inhibited by a gradual salinity decrease. Ammonium assimilation was affected via an inhibition of carbon fixation. Ammonium concentrations increased in the continuous cultures, whereas the overcapacity of ammonium uptake declined: the nitrogen limitation was relieved. When salinity was increased again, photosynthesis and cell division were stimulated. Salinity fluctuations were accompanied by a fluctuation in the pools of aspartic acid (0.5-1.0 mM), glutamine acid (0.9-4.1 mM) and glutamine (0.5-2.0 mM). The pool of glutamic acid followed the salinity pattern (r=0.67, P<0.05). The correlation between the amino acid pool and the osmotic value of the medium was significant (r=0.72, P<0.05). Cellular glutamic acid and glutamine levels increased until the nitrogen limitation was restored.
