De novo transcriptome assembly of a lipoxygenase knock-down strain in the diatom Pseudo-nitzschia arenysensis [PDF]
Scientific DataDiatoms are microalgae that live in marine and freshwater environments and are responsible for about 20% of the world’s carbon fixation. Population dynamics of these cells is finely regulated by intricate signal transduction systems, in which oxylipins ...

Pseudo-nitzschia challenged with co-occurring viral communities display diverse infection phenotypes [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Viruses are catalysts of biogeochemical cycling, architects of microbial community structure, and terminators of phytoplankton blooms. Viral lysis of diatoms, a key group of eukaryotic phytoplankton, has the potential to impact carbon export and marine ...

Fear of grazing rivals the toxin-inducing effects of nutrients in two marine harmful algae - a meta-analysis. [PDF]
Biol Rev Camb Philos SocABSTRACT One of the major subfields of chemical ecology is the study of toxins and how they mediate interactions between organisms. Toxins produced by harmful algae (phycotoxins) impact a wide variety of organisms connected to the marine food web. Significant research efforts have thus aimed to identify the ecological and evolutionary drivers behind ...

Illuminating the dark metabolome of Pseudo-nitzschia-microbiome associations. [PDF]
Environ Microbiol, 2022 Abstract The exchange of metabolites mediates algal and bacterial interactions that maintain ecosystem function. Yet, while thousands of metabolites are produced, only a few molecules have been identified in these associations. Using the ubiquitous microalgae Pseudo‐nitzschia

Toxic Pseudo-nitzschia multistriata (Bacillariophyceae) from the Gulf of Naples: morphology, toxin analysis and phylogenetic relationships with other Pseudo-nitzschia species [PDF]
European Journal of Phycology, 2002 The genus Pseudo-nitzschia includes several species capable of producing domoic acid, the causative agent of Amnesic Shellfish Poisoning. Some of these species have been recorded frequently in the Gulf of Naples. For one of the species, P. multistriata, which has been recurrently found in our sampling area since 1995, this is the first report for ...
