| Abstract | Ozone depletion is highest during spring and summer in Antarctica, coinciding with the seasonal reproduction of most macroalgae. Propagules are the life-stage of an alga most susceptible to environmental perturbations therefore, reproductive cells of three intertidal macroalgal species Adenocystis utricularis (Bory) Skottsberg, Monostroma hariotii Gain, and Porphyra endiviifolium (A and E Gepp) Chamberlain were exposed to photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), PAR + UV-A and PAR + UV-A + UV-B radiation in the laboratory. During 1, 2, 4, and 8 h of exposure and after 48 h of recovery, photosynthetic efficiency, and DNA damage were determined. Saturation irradiance of freshly released propagules varied between 33 and 83 μmol photons m−2 s−1 with lowest values in P. endiviifolium and highest values in M. hariotii. Exposure to 22 μmol photons m−2 s−1 PAR significantly reduced photosynthetic efficiency in P. endiviifolium and M. hariotii, but not in A. utricularis. UV radiation (UVR) further decreased the photosynthetic efficiency in all species but all propagules recovered completely after 48 h. DNA damage was minimal or not existing. Repeated exposure of A. utricularis spores to 4 h of UVR daily did not show any acclimation of photosynthesis to UVR but fully recovered after 20 h. UVR effects on photosynthesis are shown to be species-specific. Among the tested species, A. utricularis propagules were the most light adapted. Propagules obviously possess good repair and protective mechanisms. Our study indicates that the applied UV dose has no long-lasting negative effects on the propagules, a precondition for the ecological success of macroalgal species in the intertidal. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
