The ecology and toxin production of gambierdiscus and fukuyoa species from the Pacific [PDF]

, 2018
Ciguatera fish poisoning is a common food-borne illness experienced in tropical locations worldwide. It is caused by the ingestion of fish and seafood that have accumulated ciguatoxins (CTXs) (and possibly maitotoxins, MTXs) produced by microalgal ...

Development of an indirect immunofluorescence assay for detecting ciguatoxin-producing microalgae

Frontiers in Protistology
The seafood illness, ciguatera poisoning (CP) is a significant public health concern in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. In Japan, CP is particularly prevalent in Okinawa Prefecture, where is the subtropical region of Japan, due to the ...

The Evolution of Giant Clam Science: From Foundational Studies to Emerging Frontiers

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
This review synthesizes nearly two centuries of giant clam research, identifying dominant themes, knowledge gaps, and emerging opportunities. Ecology, physiology, aquaculture, genomics, and biomineralization dominate the field, whereas anatomy and biotechnology remain underexplored. Future progress requires stronger integration of genomics, physiology,

Rapid detection of ciguatoxins in Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa with immunosensing tools [PDF]

, 2020
Consumption of seafood contaminated with ciguatoxins (CTXs) leads to a foodborne disease known as ciguatera. Primary producers of CTXs are epibenthic dinoflagellates of the genera Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa.

Gambierdiscus polynesiensis from New Caledonia (South West Pacific Ocean): Morpho-molecular characterization, toxin profile and response to light intensity

Gambierdiscus is known to produce neurotoxins associated with ciguatera poisoning (CP). In New Caledonia (NC), South West Pacific Ocean, there is currently a significant knowledge gap regarding CP and the microalgae linked to this foodborne illness. This

Ciguatera poisoning in French Polynesia: A review of the distribution and toxicity of Gambierdiscus spp., and related impacts on food web components and human health

, 2023
Ciguatera Poisoning (CP) is a seafood poisoning highly prevalent in French Polynesia. This illness results from the consumption of seafood contaminated with ciguatoxins (CTXs) produced by Gambierdiscus, a benthic dinoflagellate.
