• Mixotrophic Plankton in the Polar Seas: A Pan-Arctic Review (2018, background): “Mixotrophy can facilitate blooms of unpalatable or harmful algae (Burkholder et al., 2008).”
• Harmful dinoflagellate blooms caused by Cochlodinium sp.: Global expansion and ecological strategies facilitating bloom formation (2012, background): “A recent review (Hansen, 2011) places Cochlodinium, along with several other red tide organisms, in a group (‘‘Type 1’’) that generally utilizes mixotrophy to moderately enhance growth at low irradiance levels, while several reviews (Stoecker et al., 2006; Burkholder et al., 2008) suggest phagotroph”
• Ecological Stoichiometry, Biogeochemical Cycling, Invasive Species, and Aquatic Food Webs: San Francisco Estuary and Comparative Systems (2011, background): “Many marine HABs are increasing (Anderson et al, 2002 ; Glibert et al, 2005 ; Heisler et al, 2008 ), and increasingly these changes are being related to nutrient changes, even for those species that were previously thought to be unrelated to nutrient pollution (Burkholder et al, 2008 ).”
• Grazing by Karenia brevis on Synechococcus enhances its growth rate and may help to sustain blooms (2009, background): “Such mixotrophy is observed in many dinoflagellate species (reviewed by Stoecker 1999, Burkholder et al. 2008).”
• Growth, feeding and ecological roles of the mixotrophic and heterotrophic dinoflagellates in marine planktonic food webs (2010, background): “…dinoflagellates have recently been revealed to be mixotrophic dinoflagellates (MTDs) and thus the study on phagotrophy of phototrophic dinoflagellates is rapidly increasing (Larsen 1988; Jacobson and Anderson 1994; Granéli et al. 1997; Jeong et al. 1997; Adolf et al. 2006; Burkholder et al. 2008).”
• Scales of temporal and spatial variability in the distribution of harmful algae species in the Indian River Lagoon, Florida, USA (2011, background): “sanguinea (Burkholder et al., 2008), and the presence of alkaline phosphatase activity in P.”
• Pluses and minuses of ammonium and nitrate uptake and assimilation by phytoplankton and implications for productivity and community composition, with emphasis on nitrogen‐enriched conditions (2016, background): “It is now recognized that virtually all photosynthetic algae (except diatoms and cyanobacteria) are mixotrophs, with the capability of digesting prey, whether or not they maintain the ability to photosynthesize (e.g., Burkholder et al. 2008; Flynn et al. 2013).”
• A hierarchy of conceptual models of red-tide generation: Nutrition, behavior, and biological interactions (2015, background): “…dinoflagellates that were thought to be obligate phototrophs have been shown to be mixotrophic (Stoecker, 1999; Jeong et al., 2005a, 2010a, 2012; Burkholder et al., 2008; Kang et al., 2011), feeding on diverse prey including heterotrophic bacteria, cyanobacteria, small flagellates, other…”
• Complexity in the eutrophication–harmful algal bloom relationship, with comment on the importance of grazing (2008, background): “This nutritional capacity can help to overcome nutrient limitation and even yield growth rates that exceed those during inorganic nutrient assimilation alone (Stoecker et al., 2006; Burkholder et al., 2008), but in this article it will be considered secondary and supplemental to the obligate photo-a”
• The role of nutrients in regulation and promotion of harmful algal blooms in upwelling systems (2010, methodology): “For a more detailed discussion of the role of mixotrophy and autotrophy in HAB organisms, we refer the reader to the reviews of Burkholder et al. (2008) and Stoecker et al. (2006).”
• Mixotrophic protists and a new paradigm for marine ecology: where does plankton research go now? (2019, background): “Equally important though, there appears to be important functional-allometric differences between the CMs, GNCMS and SNCMs, which is also seen in their biogeography (Leles et al., 2017, 2019).”
