Microalgae are the primary producers of carbon in marine ecosystems, fixing carbon and
subsequently generating various biomolecules such as carbohydrates, proteins and lipids …

Fatty acids have been used as qualitative markers to trace or confirm predator prey
relationships in the marine environment for more than thirty years. More recently, they have …

The pigment compositions of 37 species (65 strains) of cultured haptophytes were analysed
using improved HPLC methods. We distinguished 8 pigment types based on the distribution …

Rotifers have great potential in controlling the harmful algae Phaeocystis blooms that
frequently occur in coastal waters. To evaluate the effects of harmful algae on the key life …

The worldwide colony-forming haptophyte phytoplankton Phaeocystis spp. are key
organisms in trophic and biogeochemical processes in the ocean. Many organisms from …

Whale sharks Rhincodon typus are large filter-feeders that are frequently observed feeding
in surface zooplankton patches at their tropical and subtropical coastal aggregation sites …

The bloom-forming prymnesiophyte Phaeocystis globosa forms hollow, spherical,
mucilaginous colonies that vary from micrometres to millimetres in size. A recent paper gave …

Fatty acids composition of copepod and cladoceran species and their possible food sources
was investigated in the Mondego estuary (southern Europe) in order to explain the seasonal …

Ocean acidification and increased ocean temperature from elevated atmospheric carbon
dioxide can significantly influence the physiology, growth and survival of marine organisms …

The fatty acid and alcohol compositions of the Antarctic copepods Oithona similis, Oncaea
curvata, Oncaea antarctica and the Arctic Oncaea borealis were determined to provide the …
