Effects of the toxic dinoflagellate Karlodinium sp. (cultured at different N/P ratios) on micro and mesozooplankton

Effects of the toxic dinoflagellate Karlodinium sp. (cultured at different N/P ratios) on micro and mesozooplankton

An experimental study was carried out to investigate whether two potential predators such as Oxyrrhis marina (phagotrophic dinoflagellate) and Acartia margalefi (Copepoda: Calanoida) had different responses when feeding on toxic (Karlodinium sp.-strain CSIC1-) or non-toxic (Gymnodinium sp1) dinoflag...
