The growth potential of cyanobacteria is impressive. Under ideal circumstances,
cyanobacteria typically double once or twice per day. In 40 days, a single cyanobacterium …

Abstract Cyanobacteria of the Baltic Sea have multiple effects on organisms that influence

The brackish water copepod Eurytemora affinis is the most abundant copepod species in the
low salinity zone (2-15) of the Seine estuary. Despite its ecological importance, little is …

We measured ingestion and clearance rates of two Baltic Sea calanoid copepods,
Eurytemora affinis and Acartia bifilosa, on toxic and non-toxic cyanobacteria Nodularia sp …

An increasing number of studies show the importance of chemical interactions in the aquatic
environment. Our understanding of the role of chemical cues and signals in larger …

Toxic cyanobacterial blooms are a global threat to human health and aquatic biota. While
the ecotoxicity of cyanobacterial toxins such as microcystins has been studied extensively …

Marine organisms, and specially phytoplankton species, are able to produce a diverse array
of toxic compounds that are not yet fully understood in terms of their main targets and …

Experiments were conducted over 10 to 20 d periods to study the grazing and reproductive
success of the copepod Temora stylifera fed on unialgal cultures of the diatom Thalassiosira …
