Plankton in the open Mediterranean Sea: a review
- I. Siokou-Frangou, U. Christaki, +5 authors A. Zingone
- Biology
- 27 November 2009
Abstract. We present an overview of the plankton studies conducted during the last 25 years in the epipelagic offshore waters of the Mediterranean Sea. This quasi-enclosed sea is characterized by a… Expand
Eukaryotic plankton diversity in the sunlit ocean
- C. de Vargas, S. Audic, +51 authors E. Karsenti
- Biology, Medicine
- Science

Marine plankton support global biological and geochemical processes. Surveys of their biodiversity have hitherto been geographically restricted and have not accounted for the full range of plankton… Expand
Alien species in the Mediterranean Sea by 2010. A contribution to the application of European Union's Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD). Part I. Spatial distribution
- A. Zenetos, S. Gofas, +20 authors N. Streftaris
- Biology
- 5 November 2010
The state-of-art on alien species in the Mediterranean Sea is presented, making distinctions among the four subregions defined in the EU Marine Strategy Framework Directive: (i) the Western… Expand
Green and golden seaweed tides on the rise
- V. Smetacek, A. Zingone
- Environmental Science, Medicine
- Nature
- 5 December 2013
Sudden beaching of huge seaweed masses smother the coastline and form rotting piles on the shore. The number of reports of these events in previously unaffected areas has increased worldwide in… Expand
Global diversity and biogeography of Skeletonema species (bacillariophyta).
- W. Kooistra, D. Sarno, S. Balzano, H. Gu, R. Andersen, A. Zingone
- Biology, Medicine

Marine protist diversity in European coastal waters and sediments as revealed by high-throughput sequencing.
- R. Massana, Angélique Gobet, +32 authors C. de Vargas
- Biology, Medicine
- Environmental microbiology
- 1 October 2015
Although protists are critical components of marine ecosystems, they are still poorly characterized. Here we analysed the taxonomic diversity of planktonic and benthic protist communities collected… Expand

- Biology
- 1 April 2006
Abstract A total number of 40 potentially toxic microalgae and 5 taxa causing discolorations have been identified along the coasts of the Campania region (South Tyrrhenian Sea, Mediterranean Sea).… Expand
Seasonal patterns in plankton communities in a pluriannual time series at a coastal Mediterranean site (Gulf of Naples): an attempt to discern recurrences and trends
- M. Ribera, F. Conversano, +9 authors A. Zingone
- Biology
- 30 April 2004
SUMMARY: The annual cycle of plankton was studied over 14 years from 1984 to 2000 at a coastal station in the Gulf of Naples, with the aim of assessing seasonal patterns and interannual trends.… Expand
Seasonal dynamics in the abundance of Micromonas pusilla (Prasinophyceae) and its viruses in the Gulf of Naples (Mediterranean Sea)
- A. Zingone, D. Sarno, G. Forlani
- Biology
- 1 November 1999
To assess the role of viruses in the bloom dynamics of Micromonas pusilla in the Gulf of Naples (Mediterranean Sea), variations of host and virus abundance were followed over one annual cycle and in… Expand
