• Environmental constraints on the production and removal of the climatically active gas dimethylsulphide (DMS) and implications for ecosystem modelling (2007, background): “Strom et al. (2003a) also found proportionality between DMS production and prey-DMSP lyase activity in grazing experiments with O. marina and four E. huxleyi strains.”
• Capacity of herbivorous protists to control initiation and development of mass phytoplankton blooms (2009, background): “The best documented case of chemical deterrence of protist grazing is that by dimethylsulfoniopropionate-producing algae, e.g. the coccolithophorid Emiliania huxleyi (Wolfe 2000, Strom et al. 2003, Strom 2008).”
• Ecological functions of volatile organic compounds in aquatic systems (2007, methodology): “While Strom et al. (2003a) found an association between DMSP lyase activity and the strength of grazer deterrence measured in behavioural assays, Strom et al. (2003b, in the same issue) reported DMSP, and not the cleavage products DMS and acrylate, as the compound responsible for the deterrent…”
• The effects of changing climate on microzooplankton grazing and community structure: drivers, predictions and knowledge gaps (2013, background): “Prey selectivity of microbial herbivores and its relationship to phytoplankton species composition and bloom development are well known (Strom et al., 2003; Tillmann, 2004).”
• Zooplankton grazing on Phaeocystis: a quantitative review and future challenges (2007, background): “This compound and its cleavage products have also been suggested to function as grazing deterrents ( Strom et al. 2003; Wolfe et al. 1997) and it is possible that they provide a competitive advantage to Phaeocystis when non-DMSPproducing alternative prey are available to potential predators.”
• Chemical defense in the microplankton I: Feeding and growth rates of heterotrophic protists on the DMS‐producing phytoplankter Emiliania huxleyi (2003, background): “Data presented in a companion paper (Strom et al. 2003) show that DMSP itself inhibits protist feeding, further supporting the hypothesis that sulfur chemistry is involved in phytoplankton chemical defense.”
• Selective feeding behaviour of key free-living protists: avenues for continued study (2008, background): “Alternatively, other prey metabolites may deter grazing, including dimethylsulfide (Wolfe et al. 1997, Strom et al. 2003), dissolved free amino acids (Strom et al. 2007), and algal toxins (Hansen 1989, Kamiyama 1997, Tillmann 2003, Caron et al. 2004).”
• Microzooplankton grazing in the coastal Gulf of Alaska: Variations in top‐down control of phytoplankton (2007, background): “The mechanism underlying the growth–grazing relationship could be regulation of feeding behavior by prey cell surface cues or prey-derived chemical signals, themselves related to phytoplankton nutritional (i.e., growth) condition (e.g., Monger et al. 1999; Matz et al. 2002; Strom et al. 2003).”
• Feeding in the dinoflagellate Oxyrrhis marina: linking behaviour with mechanisms (2011, background): “…14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 For Peer Review Roberts et al. – Feeding in Oxyrrhis marina 10 huxleyi strains with different DMSP lyase activity (Wolfe et al., 1997; Strom et al., 2003a).”
• A hierarchy of conceptual models of red-tide generation: Nutrition, behavior, and biological interactions (2015, background): “…aldehydes, dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) produced by red-tide organisms can also reduce mortality rate of the red tide organisms by lowering ingestion rates of their predators (Malejl and Harris, 1993; Strom et al., 2003; Sopanen et al., 2006; Poulson et al., 2009; Ianora et al., 2011).”
• Pelagic functional group modeling: Progress, challenges and prospects (2006, unknown): “huxleyi are virtually ignored as prey by the dinoflagellate Amphidinium longum compared to clones that do not produce DMS (Strom et al., 2003).”
