SUMMARY: Morphology, phylogeny and azaspiracid (AZA) production of a strain of Amphidoma languida isolated from the subtropical Mexican Pacific were examined. Scanning electron microscopy showed the thecal plate arrangement of Am. languida from Mexico as Po, cp, X, 6′, 6′′, 6C, 5S, 6′′′, 2′′′′, with the prominent apical pore complex, the ventral pore on the anterior of the 1′ plate near the suture to the 6′ plate, and the antapical pore on the 2′′′′ plate, which are congruent with those of Am. languida reported from the Atlantic. The ventral depression was occasionally observed on the anterior end of Sa plate. Cells had a dinokaryotic nucleus positioned in the posterior part of the cell and parietal yellowish chloroplasts with a spherical pyrenoid in the episome. Transmission electron microscopy showed crystalline vesicles and tubular cytoplasmic invaginations in the pyrenoid, which resembled those reported from the most related non‐toxigenic species Amphidoma fulgens. The intracellular components, different from Am. fulgens, were oil droplets and lipid‐associated membranous structures. AZA‐2 was detected from the strain by liquid chromatography‐tandem mass spectrometry with a cell quota of 30.9 fg cell−1. Three other AZA‐related compounds were also detected. This is the first report of AZA‐producing Am. languida in the Pacific Ocean. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
