Unlocking species and subspecies diversity of harmful microalgae using HiFi long-read metabarcoding: insights from Amphidomataceae (Dinophyceae) in the China Sea [0.03%]
Lixin Cui,Wenjia Hu,Urban Tillmann et al.
Lixin Cui et al.
Accurate species-level identification is essential for tracing toxin sources, understanding bloom dynamics, and improving monitoring. However, short-read metabarcoding often lacks resolution for closely related harmful microalgae. We applie...
Agricultural aerosols may increase the growth of HAB-forming Alexandrium minutum in batch cultures under natural seawater conditions [0.03%]

Richard D Redil
Agricultural aerosols are an understudied source of additional nutrients to coastal ecosystems that are affected by harmful algal blooms (HABs). To investigate the possible effects of these aerosols towards HABs, aerosol samples were obtain...
High-efficiency preparation of formaldehyde-free tannin-based flocculants and their algae removal mechanism [0.03%]
Di Jia,Zhiming Yu,Kaiqin Jiang et al.
Di Jia et al.
The development of green and high-efficiency flocculants for controlling harmful algal blooms (HABs) is currently a critical research focus in the field of water treatment. Plant tannins have garnered significant attention as a sustainable ...
Geranyl pyrophosphate in sediments: a potentially limiting precursor associated with 2-MIB production by benthic filamentous cyanobacteria in shallow lakes [0.03%]
Yichao Wang,Wei Zhu,Jingkai Zhang et al.
Yichao Wang et al.
Odor and taste episodes in drinking water remain a persistent global concern. In the Xuhu water source area of Lake Taihu (China), abrupt increases of 2-methylisoborneol (2-MIB) have frequently occurred following sediment resuspension, desp...
Linking physiological response and toxin transfer: effects of ocean warming on paralytic shellfish toxins in Concholepas concholepas [0.03%]
Alejandro Ortiz,Jorge M Navarro,Bernd Krock et al.
Alejandro Ortiz et al.
This study examined the physiological responses and trophic transfer of paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs) from the mussel Perumytilus purpuratus to the carnivorous gastropod concholepas under different temperature scenarios simulating prese...
The role of sea temperature in Ostreopsis cf. ovata blooms in temperate areas-14 years of data gathered along the Northern Mediterranean coast [0.03%]
Stefano Accoroni,Giorgia Montali,Francesca Neri et al.
Stefano Accoroni et al.
Ostreopsis cf. ovata is a benthic dinoflagellate able to produce toxins of the palytoxin group. It forms harmful blooms affecting marine ecosystems, coastal economies, and human health. Initially reported in tropical areas, this species is ...
Cytotoxicity unleashed: how Prymnesium parvum extract drives RTgill-W1 rainbow trout cells into cell death [0.03%]
Zsuzsanna Neer,Endre Kiss,Urban Tillmann et al.
Zsuzsanna Neer et al.
Massive algal blooms, including the 2022 Oder disaster linked to the toxic haptophyte Prymnesium parvum, highlight critical gaps in our understanding of waterborne ecotoxicants. Prymnesins are ladder-framed polyether-type compounds produced...
Revealing species diversity in Pseudo-nitzschia blooms in Scotland and Aotearoa (New Zealand) by combining recombinase polymerase amplification and nanopore-sequencing [0.03%]
Robert G Hatfield,María García-Portela,Kirsty F Smith et al.
Robert G Hatfield et al.
The planktonic marine diatom genus Pseudo-nitzschia is synonymous with the neurotoxin domoic acid (DA), which causes the syndrome amnesic shellfish poisoning (ASP). DA can bioaccumulate in shellfish during blooms of specific, toxin-producin...
Blooms like it hot, but mussels do not: Influence of invasive quagga mussels on cyanobacteria during summer [0.03%]
Jonas Mauch,Maider Erize Gardoki,Raphael Neiling et al.
Jonas Mauch et al.
Quagga mussels (Dreissena rostriformis bugensis) are among the most impactful invaders in freshwaters of the Northern Hemisphere. As filter-feeders, they can reduce harmful algal blooms (HABs), but their effects are expected to be dependent...
Efficient inhibition of Microcystis aeruginosa using expanded perlite sustained-release pyrogallic acid: performance studies, mechanistic insights and ecological security assessment [0.03%]
Yuewen Zhang,Mingjun Ma,Yujia Gao et al.
Yuewen Zhang et al.
Allelochemicals are effective and safe for controlling cyanobacterial blooms, but their direct application suffers from rapid degradation and poor persistence. To address this limitation, we engineered a buoyant, surface-targeting delivery ...
