Airborne dispersal of microalgae has largely been a blind spot in environmental biological
studies because of their low concentration in the atmosphere and the technical limitations in …

Eukaryotic phytoplankton exhibit an enormous species richness, displaying a range of
phylogenetic, morphological and physiological diversity. Yet, until recently, very little was …

Ceratium species are not a common component of freshwater phytoplankton in South
America. However, these dinoflagellates have often been observed in many water bodies …

Recent studies show that both marine and limnic microalgal species often consist of several
genetically distinct populations. This is also valid for the nuisance freshwater algae …

In southern Chile, Alexandrium catenella is the main species generating harmful algal
blooms (HABs) and over time it has expanded its range since it was first recorded in the …

Species invasion and range expansion are currently under scrutiny due to increasing
anthropogenic impact on the natural environment. This is also true for harmful algal blooms …

The study of microbial diversity over time and space is fundamental to the understanding of
their ecology and evolution. The underlying processes driving these patterns are not fully …

Cyanobacteria are present in many aquatic ecosystems in Serbia. Lake Ludoš, a wetland
area of international significance and an important habitat for waterbirds, has become the …

Many recent studies have found genetically differentiated populations in microorganisms
despite potentially high dispersal. We designed a study to specifically examine the …

Marine planktonic microalgae have potentially global dispersal, yet reduced gene flow has
been confirmed repeatedly for several species. Over larger distances (> 200 km) geographic …
