TL;DR: Findings reveal that monitoring of mussel toxicity alone does not necessarily provide adequate warning of DA entering the food web at levels sufficient to harm marine wildlife and perhaps humans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of domoic acid in northern anchovies and California sea lions associated with an unusual mortality event.

TL;DR: The authors' detection of P. australis frustules, via scanning electron microscopy, in both anchovy viscera and fecal material from sea lions exhibiting seizures provides corroborating evidence that this toxic algal species was involved in this unusual sea lion mortality event.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inter‐ and intraspecific variation of the pseudo‐nitzschia delicatissima complex (bacillariophyceae) illustrated by rrna probes, morphological data and phylogenetic analyses1
Nina Lundholm,Øjvind Moestrup,Yuichi Kotaki,Kerstin Hoef-Emden,Chris Scholin,Peter E. Miller +5 more
TL;DR: A study of 25 cultures tentatively identified as Pseudo‐nitzschia delicatissima (Cleve) Heiden showed both morphological and genetic variation among strains, and resulted in the description of two new species, P. decipiens sp.
Journal ArticleDOI
IDENTIFICATION AND ENUMERATION OF CULTURED AND WILD PSEUDO‐NITZSCHIA (BACILLARIOPHYCEAE) USING SPECIES‐SPECIFIC LSU rRNA‐TARGETED FLUORESCENT PROBES AND FILTER‐BASED WHOLE CELL HYBRIDIZATION
TL;DR: Efforts to develop species‐specific large subunit ribosomal RNA (LSU rRNA)‐targeted fluorescent DNA probes for a variety of Pseudo‐nitzschia H. Peragallo species are continued.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In the Southern California Bight (SCB) along the coasts of Los Angeles and Orange Counties during spring and summer of 2003 and 2004 as mentioned in this paper, Pseudo-nitzschia australis dominated the Pseudo Nitzchia assemblage and concentrations of particulate domoic acid (DA) were determined.
