Field sampling was undertaken to investigate the occurrence of Pseudo‐nitzschia Peragallo species in eight locations along the coast of Malaysian Borneo. A total of 108 strains of Pseudo‐nitzschia species were isolated, and their morphology examined with SEM and TEM. Additionally, molecular data from nuclear‐encoded partial LSU rDNA, and ITS regions, were characterized. A total of five species were confidently identified based on a combination of distinct morphological characteristics and…

Examination of high‐risk estuaries of south‐eastern Australia revealed that the “P. seriata group” had highest cell densities in the austral summer, autumn, or spring (species dependent), and lowest cell density in theAustral winter, while the ‘P. delicatissima group’ had highest in winter and spring.

A phylogenetic analysis of 42 species based on the first 872 base pairs of nuclear-encoded large subunit (LSU) rDNA suggested that Nitzschia is not monophyletic, as expected from the great morphological diversity within the genus.
IDENTIFICATION AND ASSESSMENT OF DOMOIC ACID PRODUCTION IN OCEANIC PSEUDO‐NITZSCHIA (BACILLARIOPHYCEAE) FROM IRON‐LIMITED WATERS IN THE NORTHEAST SUBARCTIC PACIFIC 1

None of the oceanic isolates produced detectable levels of particulate domoic acid (DA) when in prolonged stationary phase due to silicic acid starvation, suggesting that either these strains produce very little or no toxin, or that the physiological conditions required to promote particulate DA production were not met and thus differ from their coastal, toxigenic congeners.
