Optimal nitrogen source for the recovery of phycoerythrin in discolored Rhodomonas sp. [PDF]

Algal Research
Rhodomonas species are of interest as excellent aquaculture feed because of their ideal biochemical composition, especially their high protein content, resulting from the presence of intracellular phycoerythrin (PE). One of the most crucial issue with this species as a feed source is PE degradation under ambient nitrogen starvation, which leads to ...

Distribution patterns and co-occurrence network of eukaryotic algae in different salinity waters of Yuncheng Salt Lake, China [PDF]

Scientific Reports
The community structure and co-occurrence pattern of eukaryotic algae in Yuncheng Salt Lake were analyzed based on marker gene analysis of the 18S rRNA V4 region to understand the species composition and their synergistic adaptations to the environmental

The Influence of the Toxin-Producing Dinoflagellate, Alexandrium catenella (1119/27), on the Survival and Reproduction of the Marine Copepod, Acartia tonsa, During Prolonged Exposure

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Copepods can feed on, and may regulate, the blooms of harmful algae (HA), and may also facilitate dinoflagellate blooms by inducing toxin production and through selective grazing.

Optimizing Growth and Rearing Techniques for Larvae and Juveniles of the Sea Cucumber Holothuria arguinensis

Diversity, 2023
The ever-growing demand for sea cucumbers is a threat to these echinoderms and their habitats; however, a way to relieve stock pressure lies in meeting demand through aquaculture. As such, this study aimed to improve the growth and survival percentage of

Metabolomic Insights of the Effects of Bacterial Algicide IRI-160AA on Dinoflagellate Karlodinium veneficum

Metabolites, 2022
Shewanella sp. IRI-160 is an algicidal bacterium that secretes an algicide, IRI-160AA. This algicide specifically targets dinoflagellates, while having no adverse effects on other algal species tested.

The Use of Winter Water Temperature and Food Composition by the Copepod Cyclops vicinus (Uljanin, 1875) to Provide a Temporal Refuge from Fish Predation

Biology, 2021
Frequent predation induces various defense strategies in prey, including morphological changes or migration patterns in zooplankton. We hypothesized that the winter dominance of Cyclops vicinus in the Upo Wetlands, South Korea, is an evolved temporal ...
