Allelopathy in aquatic environments may provide a competitive advantage to angiosperms,
algae, or cyanobacteria in their interaction with other primary producers. Allelopathy can …

The paper reviews the published literature on the studies of competition and allelopathy in

on aquatic unicellular algae Chlorella vulgaris at physiological gene transcription level …

Elodea nuttallii and Elodea canadensis have both been introduced from North America to
Europe. They are now common in many water bodies where they often form dominating …

Some free fatty acids are toxic to phytoplankton, and the toxic effects are multiple. However,
precisely how they kill phytoplankton is debatable. Here we show that fatty acids result in …
