• Biofiltering efficiency, uptake and assimilation rates of Ulva clathrata (Roth) J. Agardh (Clorophyceae) cultivated in shrimp aquaculture waste water (2009, background): “It has been found that green-tide forming algae, particularly Ulvales, produce allelopathic effects with release of toxic substances for several microalgae (Nelson et al. 2003), including harmful algal blooms (Jin and Dong 2003; Wang et al 2007a, b).”
• Ulva, Umbraulva and Gemina: genetic survey of New Zealand taxa reveals diversity and introduced species (2009, background): “…produce large amounts of biomass, apparently in response to human activities, such as eutrophication of the environment (e.g. Hawes & Smith, 1995; de Winton et al., 1998; Raffaelli et al., 1998; Malta et al., 1999; Taylor, 1999; Blomster et al., 2002; Nelson et al., 2003; Hiraoka et al., 2004a).”
• Evolutionary Considerations of Neurotransmitters in Microbial, Plant, and Animal Cells (2010, background): “Damaged algae were also found to release a water-soluble reddish-black substance (dopachrome) that inhibits the development of brown algal embryos, reduced the rates of macroalgal and epiphyte growth and caused increase mortality in oyster larvae (Nelson et al. 2003).”
• Effects of temperature and irradiance on photosynthesis and growth of a green-tide-forming species (Ulva linza) in the Yellow Sea (2011, background): “Further, green algae can negatively impact macrofauna through allelopathic activity ( Nelson et al. 2003a ).”
