Description

Cell counts of Breviolum antillogorgium cultures isolated from the octocoral Antillogorgia bipinnata by sample and treatment for cultures historically grown at 26 and 30 degrees C and reciprocally grown at 26 and 30 degrees C.

Methods & Sampling

Breviolum antillogorgium cultures were initially isolated from Antillogorgia bipinnata colonies collected at in the upper Florida Reef tract at Elbow Reef (N 25 07.956 W 80 15.810) in September 2016. Culture isolations and cell growth experimentation occurred in the Coffroth lab, University at Buffalo.

A total of six Breviolum antillogorgium genotypes were used in this experiment. Three cultures had been grown at 26 degrees C since isolation in 2016 (16-0590F, 16-0875 and 16-1631) and three had been grown at 30 degrees C since isolation in 2016 (16-0587, 16-0763 and 16-0764). Three replicates of each of the six Breviolum antillogorgium cultures were grown at 26 and 30 C for a total of four treatments (26 degrees at 26 and 30 C and 30 degrees C at 26 and 30 C). A total of four to six replicate counts from each culture was made every three to twelve days using light microscopy and a hemocytometer. Mean symbiont density per ml was calculated.

Data Processing: Mean x 10000 were calculated from the counts.

Data Processing Description

BCO-DMO Processing notes:- created separate files for each daily cell count
- added columns for Count_5 and Count_6 to data from day 56 to day 83 to match days 1 to 55
- created a toplevel file with date and day from each Excel sheet, which calls the daily files

Instruments

Hemocytometer

Supplied Name: Reichert Brightline hemocytometer

Supplied Description:

Used to make cell counts.

Instrument Type

Generic Name: Hemocytometer

Generic Description:

A hemocytometer is a small glass chamber, resembling a thick microscope slide, used for determining the number of cells per unit volume of a suspension. Originally used for performing blood cell counts, a hemocytometer can be used to count a variety of cell types in the laboratory. Also spelled as "haemocytometer". Description from:

Community Identifier: http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L05/current/LAB05/

Generic Description:

Instruments that generate enlarged images of samples using the phenomena of reflection and absorption of visible light. Includes conventional and inverted instruments. Also called a "light microscope".
