Assessing the effects of a mixture of hydrophobic contaminants on the algae Rhodomonas salina using the chemical activity concept

open access: yesAquatic Toxicology, 2023
The production and release of chemicals from human activities are on the rise. Understanding how the aquatic environment is affected by the presence of an unknown number of chemicals is lacking. We employed the chemical activity concept to assess the combined effects of hydrophobic organic contaminants on the phytoplankton species Rodomonas salina ...

Culture conditions affect the nutritional value of the copepod Acartia tonsa

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Marine Sciences, 2015
Live feed are still necessary for the rearing of larval stages of several fish species, especially marine ones. Compared to Artemia, copepods are of superior quality. This is based on a suite of traits like size, movement, and nutritional value. Copepods

Food quality affects secondary consumers even at low quantities: an experimental test with larval European lobster. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The issues of food quality and food quantity are crucial for trophic interactions. Although most research has focussed on the primary producer-herbivore link, recent studies have shown that quality effects at the bottom of the food web propagate to ...

Food limitation erodes the thermal tolerance of larvae in an ecologically influential marine herbivore

open access: yesEcology, Volume 107, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Biologists often use organismal thermal tolerance to help explain or forecast responses of populations to climate change. Yet many studies quantify thermal tolerance under isolated laboratory conditions despite extreme events, such as heatwaves, often coinciding with other stressors such as nutrient or food limitation.

Copepod population-specific response to a toxic diatom diet. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Diatoms are key phytoplankton organisms and one of the main primary producers in aquatic ecosystems. However, many diatom species produce a series of secondary metabolites, collectively termed oxylipins, that disrupt development in the offspring of ...

The effect of cell density on biomass and fatty acid productivity during cultivation of Rhodomonas salina in a tubular photobioreactor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The microalga Rhodomonas salina is widely used in aquaculture. There is a need for optimization of the growth of the microalgae and its content of essential fatty acids.

From Manual to Automation: A Comparative Study of Manual, Standard Dilution, and Proportional–Integral Controls for Cultivation of Rhodomonas salina in a 500 L Tubular Alga Photobioreactor

open access: yesAquaculture Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Efficient production of high‐quality microalgae is essential for marine aquaculture, yet large‐scale cultivation of the cryptophyte Rhodomonas salina remains labor‐intensive and technically challenging. In this study, a 500‐L tubular photobioreactor (PBR) was evaluated and compared three control strategies—manual control, a programmed standard dilution

The effect of algae diets (Skeletonema costatum and Rhodomonas baltica) on the biochemical composition and sensory characteristics of Pacific cupped oysters (Crassostrea gigas) during land-based refinement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Oyster refinement, a common practice in France, is aimed at increasing the weight of oyster tissue and influencing the taste properties of the refined oysters. Refinement usually takes place in land-based systems where the oysters are fed with relatively

Complete Sequence and Analysis of the Mitochondrial Genome of Hemiselmis andersenii CCMP644 (Cryptophyceae)

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2008
Background Cryptophytes are an enigmatic group of unicellular eukaryotes with plastids derived by secondary (i.e., eukaryote-eukaryote) endosymbiosis.
