Brevetoxin-Producing Spherical Cells Present in Karenia brevis Bloom: Evidence of Morphological Plasticity?

Brevetoxin-Producing Spherical Cells Present in Karenia brevis Bloom: Evidence of Morphological Plasticity?

Spherical cells were detected in low salinity waters during a bloom of <i>Karenia brevis</i> in Alabama coastal waters. These balls resembled <i>K.</i><i> </i><i>brevis</i> in size and organelle appearance, contained similar concentration of brevetoxin...
