Kleptoplastic mixotrophic species of the genus Dinophysis are cultured by feeding with the ciliate Mesodinium rubrum, itself a kleptoplastic mixotroph, that in turn feeds on cryptophytes of the Teleaulax/Plagioselmis/Geminigera (TPG) clade.

<i>Mesodinium-Dinophysis</i> encounters: temporal and spatial constraints on <i>Dinophysis</i> blooms. [PDF]
Species of the Dinophysis acuminata complex are the main cause of diarrhetic shellfish poisoning worldwide. These mixotrophs perform photosynthesis with plastids stolen from specific ciliate prey.

Influence of prey concentration, light intensity, and temperature on the growth and ingestion of the mixotrophic dinoflagellate Pyrophacus horologium, a predator of the harmful species Heterocapsa niei. [PDF]
Abstract Pyrophacus horologium belongs to the family Pyrocystaceae and was recently identified as a mixotrophic dinoflagellate capable of feeding on other dinoflagellates. In this study, the growth and feeding responses of P. horologium were investigated under various environmental conditions by providing Heterocapsa niei, its preferred prey.

Exploring the Regional Diversity of Eukaryotic Phytoplankton in the English Channel by Combining High-Throughput Approaches. [PDF]
By combining flow cytometry and high‐throughput sequencing, we reveal seasonal and spatial variations in the size, composition, and diversity of phytoplankton in the English Channel, highlighting the dynamics of pico‐, nano‐, and microphytoplankton and environmental factors, with the Seine Bay as a hotspot of taxonomic and functional diversity ...

Unveiling the phylogenetic position of the type species of the syndinean genus Amoebophrya and broad divergence of the A. ceratii complex. [PDF]
Abstract The syndinean genus Amoebophrya comprises endoparasitic dinoflagellates that infect various marine protists. Since the description of the type species, A. sticholonchae, a parasite of the radiolarian Sticholonche zanclea, an additional six Amoebophrya species have been formally described.
