Molecular detection of bioluminescent dinoflagellates in surface waters of the Patagonian shelf during early austral summer 2008. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 We investigated the distribution of bioluminescent dinoflagellates in the Patagonian Shelf region using "universal" PCR primers for the dinoflagellate luciferase gene.

Evolution and Distribution of Saxitoxin Biosynthesis in Dinoflagellates
Marine Drugs, 2013 Numerous species of marine dinoflagellates synthesize the potent environmental neurotoxic alkaloid, saxitoxin, the agent of the human illness, paralytic shellfish poisoning.

Transcription and Maturation of mRNA in Dinoflagellates
Microorganisms, 2013 Dinoflagellates are of great importance to the marine ecosystem, yet scant details of how gene expression is regulated at the transcriptional level are available.

Diverse Bacterial PKS Sequences Derived From Okadaic Acid-Producing Dinoflagellates [PDF]
Marine Drugs, 2008 Okadaic acid (OA) and the related dinophysistoxins are isolated from dinoflagellates of the genus Prorocentrum and Dinophysis. Bacteria of the Roseobacter group have been associated with okadaic acid producing dinoflagellates and have been previously ...

Fundamental Research, 2022 Dinoflagellates are responsible for most marine harmful algal blooms (HABs) and play vital roles in many ocean processes. More than 90% of dinoflagellates are vitamin B12 auxotrophs and that B12 availability can control dinoflagellate HABs, yet the ...

OMICS Approaches to Assess Dinoflagellate Responses to Chemical Stressors
Biology, 2023 Dinoflagellates are important primary producers known to form Harmful Algae Blooms (HABs). In water, nutrient availability, pH, salinity and anthropogenic contamination constitute chemical stressors for them.

Marine Ecology, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Microplastic input into the ocean represents an increasing threat to marine biota and may endanger the functioning of marine ecosystems, especially in semi‐enclosed basins, such as the Mediterranean Sea. The size spectrum of microplastics overlaps with that of nano‐microplankton (2–200 μm), thus potentially misleading suspension‐feeding ...

Gene duplication is the primary driver of intraspecific genomic divergence in coral algal symbionts
Open Biology, 2023 Dinoflagellates in the order Suessiales include the family Symbiodiniaceae, which have essential roles as photosymbionts in corals, and their cold-adapted sister group, Polarella glacialis.
