Harmful algal blooms and eutrophication: Nutrient sources, composition, and consequences (2002, methodology): “The ability to consume an array of prey ranging from bacteria to mammalian tissues, as well as dissolved substrates, allows Pfiesteria spp. to thrive where food is abundant (Burkholder and Glasgow 1995, 2001; Burkholder et al. 2001b).”
Harmful algal blooms and eutrophication: Examining linkages from selected coastal regions of the United States (2008, background): “Pfiesteria spp. depend mostly on grazing for their nutrient supplies, but can also take up dissolved nutrients directly (Burkholder and Glasgow, 1997; Lewitus et al., 1999a,b; Burkholder et al., 2001; Glibert et al., 2006a).”
Feeding by ciliates on two harmful algal bloom species, Prymnesium parvum and Prorocentrum minimum (2003, background): “Since toxicity of algal species in culture may decrease over time (Cembella and Therriault, 1998; Burkholder et al., 2001) and cultured ciliates reportedly differ in feeding responses compared to ciliates caught in the field (Capriulo, 1990), experiments using field-collected ciliate grazers and har”
A bacterium that inhibits the growth of Pfiesteria piscicida and other dinoflagellates (2004, methodology): “Potentially toxic P. piscicida cultures (Dinophyceae,Burkholder et al., 2001) were obtained from J. Burkholder (N.C. State University).”
