Ciguatoxin-Producing Dinoflagellate Gambierdiscus in the Beibu Gulf: First Report of Toxic Gambierdiscus in Chinese Waters [PDF]

open access: yesToxins, 2021
Ciguatera poisoning is mainly caused by the consumption of reef fish that have accumulated ciguatoxins (CTXs) produced by the benthic dinoflagellates Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa.

Automatic MS/MS Data Mining Strategy for Rapid Screening of Polyether Toxins Derived from Gambierdiscus Species [PDF]

open access: yesAnal Chem
Gambierdiscus is a primary producer of diverse polyether toxins that can biomagnify and transform within marine food webs, posing major risks to marine organisms and human health.

Further Advance of Gambierdiscus Species in the Canary Islands, with the First Report of Gambierdiscus belizeanus [PDF]

open access: yesToxins, 2020
Ciguatera Poisoning (CP) is a human food-borne poisoning that has been known since ancient times to be found mainly in tropical and subtropical areas, which occurs when fish or very rarely invertebrates contaminated with ciguatoxins (CTXs) are consumed ...

Model of the Origin of a Ciguatoxic Grouper (Plectropomus leopardus) [PDF]

open access: yesToxins, 2023
Published data were used to model the transfer of ciguatoxins (CTX) across three trophic levels of a marine food chain on the Great Barrier Reef (GBR), Australia, to produce a mildly toxic common coral trout (Plectropomus leopardus), one of the most ...

Reviewing Evidence for Disturbance to Coral Reefs Increasing the Risk of Ciguatera [PDF]

open access: yesToxins
The hypothesis that disturbance to coral reefs creates new surfaces that increase the risk of ciguatera is premised upon the increased algal substrates that develop on these surfaces being colonised by high ciguatoxin (CTX)-producing Gambierdiscus ...

Toxicity and underlying mechanism of the toxic dinoflagellate Gambierdiscus caribaeus to the fish Oryzias melastigma

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
Gambierdiscus spp. is mainly responsible for the ciguatera fish poisoning (CFP) around the world. The gambiertoxin produced by Gambierdiscus can be passed through the food chain to form ciguatoxins (CTXs) that cause ciguatoxins poisoning.

Asynchrony of Gambierdiscus spp. Abundance and Toxicity in the U.S. Virgin Islands: Implications for Monitoring and Management of Ciguatera

open access: yesToxins, 2021
Ciguatera poisoning (CP) poses a significant threat to ecosystem services and fishery resources in coastal communities. The CP-causative ciguatoxins (CTXs) are produced by benthic dinoflagellates including Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa spp., and enter reef ...

Comparative Study on the Performance of Three Detection Methods for the Quantification of Pacific Ciguatoxins in French Polynesian Strains of Gambierdiscus polynesiensis

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2022
Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa dinoflagellates produce a suite of secondary metabolites, including ciguatoxins (CTXs), which bioaccumulate and are further biotransformed in fish and marine invertebrates, causing ciguatera poisoning when consumed by humans ...

Revealing the Physiological Patterns of Dinoflagellates in North‐Eastern Adriatic Phytoplankton [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Using metatranscriptomics, we have described the annual taxonomic and functional succession of the phytoplankton community in the north‐eastern Adriatic Sea, taking into account the effects of environmental factors on succession. The results obtained in this way represent the first comprehensive physiological characterisation of the phytoplankton ...

Influence of Environmental Variables on Gambierdiscus spp. (Dinophyceae) Growth and Distribution. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Benthic dinoflagellates in the genus Gambierdiscus produce the ciguatoxin precursors responsible for the occurrence of ciguatera toxicity. The prevalence of ciguatera toxins in fish has been linked to the presence and distribution of toxin-producing ...
