In a food chain of this type the quantitative relationship between phytoplankton and mackerel is about 1000: l. It is interesting to compare this with the relationship between primary organic production and organic matter buried and preserved in marine sediments. This relationship also shows a ratio of about 1000: l. Tasch (1967) presents information on the geological age range of existing primary producers. Dinoflagellates probably occupied first place, and coccolithophores second place among primary producers in Mesozoic oceans, except toward the end of the Cretaceous, when marine diatoms rose to first place among primary producers.
5. In addition to being derived from plants, they are also formed by certain arthropods (F rancis, 1971). Sesquiterpenes (CIS)' consisting of 3 isoprene units, are represented by farnesol, an acyclic isoprenoid alcohol (Fig. 6), and the corresponding olefin farnesin, both of which are found in many plants. Farnesol is a wide-spread compound, but it occurs only in very sm all concentrations. 2). Monocyclic and dicyclic sesquiterpenes are commonly occurring components of the plant kingdom. Compounds with a farnesol-type skeleton are considered as biochemical precursors of numerous cyclic sesquiterpenoids.
Bacteria in the ocean are partly suspended in the water and partly attached to plankton organisms and particles of detritus. Great quantities of bacteria occur also on the sea floor, probably with the exception of very great water depths, and in the top layer of sediment (Bordovskiy, 1965) in shallow to moderate water depths. Phytoplankton, the primary producer of organic matter, forms the basic member of the food chain and hence of the pyramid of life. Diatoms, dinoflagellates, and coccolithophores are the main producers in this sequence.
