<i>Blastodinium</i> spp. infect copepods in the ultra-oligotrophic marine waters of the Mediterranean Sea
<i>Blastodinium</i> are chloroplast-containing dinoflagellates which infect a wide range of copepods. They develop inside the gut of their host, where they produce successive generations of sporocytes that are eventually expelled through the anus of the copepod. Here, we report on copepo...
