Microalgae have a high growth rate, high CO2 absorption capacity, and high content of chlorophyll, proteins, vitamins, mineral salts, carbohydrates, antioxidant substances, and fatty acids. In recent years, Chlorella vulgaris has been widely used as...

The genus Amphidinium Clap. & J. Lachm. comprises a high diversity of planktonic and benthic (epiphytic and sand-dwelling) dinoflagellates from marine and freshwater ecosystems. High morphological plasticity and vaguely defined genus characterist...

Streams play vital roles in surrounding communities and provide essential ecosystem services. The protection of streams is important, they are legally protected under the Clean Water Act, and they can be monitored through the continuous analyses of b...

The constant production of solids in intensive shrimp and tilapia culture can affect the performance of macroalgae when cultivated in an integrated system, and little is known about culture structures that enhance the performance of macroalgae in bio...

To describe the seasonal response of the major phytoplankton groups to environmental variables along the Campeche coast, southeastern Gulf of Mexico, seven shallow-water (ca. 1 m) stations were monitored from January 2019 to January 2020. Orthophosph...

We report here the effects of cadmium on the metabolome of the macroalga Gracilaria caudata. The IC50 of 3 mg/L (12 µM) was obtained after 48 hrs exposure and induced lower photosynthesis efficiency. Threshold concentrations determined by the B...

Benthic dinoflagellates of the Coolia genus have been associated with cytotoxicity and lethal and sublethal effects on marine species. This study aimed to assess the harmful effects of C. cf. canariensis phylogroup II (PII) and C. malayensis strains...
