Pseudo-nitzschia (Bacillariophyceae) species, domoic acid and amnesic shellfish poisoning: revisiting previous paradigms (2012, background): “As with many other phytoplankton species (Granéli & Hansen 2006), it is reasonable to assume that Pseudonitzschia may have allelopathic effects on sympatric species.”
Allelopathic effects of Alexandrium tamarense on other algae: evidence from mixed growth experiments. (2009, background): “However, this approach has limited value because some toxins cannot be quantitatively filtered (Ulitzur 1973, Tillmann et al. 2008b) or are labile, so toxic effects may cease after some time because compounds are not exuded continuously as in the case of mixed cultures (Granéli & Hansen 2006).”
Harmful algal blooms of allelopathic microalgal species: The role of eutrophication (2008, background): “Some of these blooms are far worse in their impacts than others, for example, the 1988 bloom of Chrysochromulina polylepis in Scandinavia that killed all fauna and flora over a 75,000 km2 area (Maestrini and Granéli, 1991; Granéli and Hansen, 2006).”
Allelopathic effects of Cochlodinium polykrikoides isolates and blooms from the estuaries of Long Island, New York, on co-occurring phytoplankton. (2010, background): “Therefore, C. polykrikoides may provide another case to the short list of HAB species that have been proven to have a common mechanism for their toxicity to animals and allelopathic effects on phytoplankton (Karlodinium veneficum and Prymnesium parvum: Granéli & Hansen 2006, Tillmann et al. 2008b).”
Harmful Algal Blooms (2015, background): “…is revealing their diverse ecological roles, as photoprotectants, cryogens, pheromones, kairomones, toxins, metabolic inhibitors, antibiotics, teratogens, carcinogens, and grazer deterrents (e.g., Granéli and Hansen, 2006; Hansson et al., 2007; Rohrlack et al., 2008; Watson and Molot, 2013).”
A chronicle of a killer alga in the west: ecology, assessment, and management of Prymnesium parvum blooms (2015, background): “…its fitness while lowering the fitness of competitors (Legrand et al., 2001; Skovgaard & Hansen, 2003; Tillmann, 2003; Fistarol et al., 2005; Granéli & Hansen, 2006; Granéli & Salomon, 2010; Remmel & Hambright, 2012), which in turn may enable bloom development (but see Lewis, 1986;…”
Factors Influencing Allelopathy and Toxicity in Prymnesium parvum 1 (2010, background): “Many authors have described the production of allelopathic compounds by various algal species (see reviews by Gran eli and Flynn, 2006; Gran eli and Hansen, 2006; Gran eli et al., 2008a,b).”
Can increases in temperature stimulate blooms of the toxic benthic dinoflagellate Ostreopsis ovata (2011, background): “It has long been argued that many toxic dinoflagellates produce allelochemicals in order to compete with other co-occurring algae under unfavorable environmental conditions for growth (Granéli and Johansson, 2003b; Granéli and Hansen, 2006).”
On the allelochemical potency of the marine dinoflagellate Alexandrium ostenfeldii against heterotrophic and autotrophic protists (2007, background): “In marine environments, allelochemicals may function in chemical defence as agents capable of incapacitating or even killing competitors and/or deterring grazers (McClintock and Baker, 2001; Cembella, 2003; Legrand et al., 2003; Granéli and Hansen, 2006).”
