Members of Prymnesium belong to the division Haptophyta, class Prymnesiophyceae, order
Prymnesiales and family Prymnesiaceae. As most haptophytes, members of the genus …

Marine chemical ecology comprises the study of the production and interaction of bioactive
molecules affecting organism behavior and function. Here we focus on bioactive compounds …

Some phytoplankton species produce and release secondary metabolites that negatively
affect the growth of other organisms; ie, they are allelopathic (eg, Rizvi and Rizvi 1992). The …

Since the mid-1980s, fish-killing blooms of Prymnesium parvum spread throughout the USA.
In the south central USA, P. parvum blooms have commonly spanned hundreds of …

In recent years it has become increasingly clear that chemical interactions play a
fundamental role in aquatic habitats and have far-reaching evolutionary and ecological …

Fish-killing Prymnesium parvum blooms have occurred in south-central USA for at least∼
30 years, with the last decade experiencing recurrent blooms of large magnitude. In the …

Much of the evolutionary ecology of toxic algal blooms (TABs) remains unclear, including the
role of algal toxins in the adaptive 'strategies' of TAB‐forming species. Most eukaryotic TABs …

The elemental stoichiometry of marine phytoplankton plays a critical role in global
biogeochemical cycles through its impact on nutrient cycling, secondary production, and …

Glyphosate-based herbicides (GBH) are widely used around the globe. While generally
toxic to phototrophs, organic phosphorus in glyphosate can become available to glyphosate …

Mixotrophy is found in almost all classes of phytoplankton in a wide range of aquatic habitats
ranging from oligotrophic to eutrophic marine and freshwater systems. Few studies have …
