Abstract

The genus Eutreptiella (Euglenophyceae/Euglenozoa) comprises unicellular organisms known for their photosynthetic capacity and significant role in marine ecosystems. This review highlights the taxonomic, ecological, and biotechnological characteristics of Eutreptiella species, emphasizing their morphological and genomic adaptations. Eutreptiella species exhibit high phenotypic plasticity, enabling adaptation to various environmental conditions, from nutrient-rich waters to high-salinity conditions. They play a crucial role in primary production and nutrient cycling in marine ecosystems. Genetic and transcriptomic studies have revealed their complex regulatory mechanisms and potential for biofuel and nutraceutical production. Eutreptiella blooms significantly impact local ecosystems, influencing nutrient availability and community dynamics. Additionally, interactions with associated bacteria enhance their growth and metabolic capabilities. The genus shows substantial genetic variability, suggesting potential misidentifications or a polyphyletic nature. Further comprehensive studies are needed to clarify their taxonomy and evolutionary relationships. Understanding and managing Eutreptiella populations is essential to leverage their biotechnological potential and ensure the health of marine ecosystems.

全球分布范围内的 Eutreptiella 属（Euglenophyceae/Euglenozoa）

Eutreptiella 属（Euglenophyceae/Euglenozoa）由单细胞生物组成，因其光合能力和在海洋生态系统中的重要作用而闻名。本综述将重点介绍 Eutreptiella 物种的分类学、生态学和生物技术特征，强调其形态和基因组适应性。Eutreptiella 物种表现出高度的表型可塑性，能够适应从营养丰富的水域到高盐度条件的各种环境条件。它们在海洋生态系统的初级生产和营养循环中发挥着至关重要的作用。遗传和转录组学研究揭示了它们复杂的调控机制以及生产生物燃料和营养保健品的潜力。Eutreptiella 水华会对当地生态系统产生重大影响，影响养分供应和群落动态。此外，与相关细菌的相互作用也增强了它们的生长和代谢能力。该属表现出很大的遗传变异性，表明可能存在识别错误或多型性。需要进一步开展全面研究，以明确其分类和进化关系。了解和管理 Eutreptiella 种群对于发挥其生物技术潜力和确保海洋生态系统的健康至关重要。

期刊介绍： Ecology and Evolution is the peer reviewed journal for rapid dissemination of research in all areas of ecology, evolution and conservation science. The journal gives priority to quality research reports, theoretical or empirical, that develop our understanding of organisms and their diversity, interactions between them, and the natural environment. Ecology and Evolution gives prompt and equal consideration to papers reporting theoretical, experimental, applied and descriptive work in terrestrial and aquatic environments. The journal will consider submissions across taxa in areas including but not limited to micro and macro ecological and evolutionary processes, characteristics of and interactions between individuals, populations, communities and the environment, physiological responses to environmental change, population genetics and phylogenetics, relatedness and kin selection, life histories, systematics and taxonomy, conservation genetics, extinction, speciation, adaption, behaviour, biodiversity, species abundance, macroecology, population and ecosystem dynamics, and conservation policy.
