Reactive oxygen species are linked to the toxicity of the dinoflagellate Alexandrium spp. to protists
Abstract:
Data include the survival response of the ciliate, Tiarina fusus, and the heterotrophic dinoflagellate, Polykrikos kofoidii, to three strains in the Alexandrium tamarense species complex.
Independent variable: protists (Tiarina fusus and Polykrikos kofoidii), 3 strains in the Alexandrium with a different paralytic shellfish toxin (PST) content (High, Low, No PST), and cell densities of each dinoflagellate isolate (cells per milliliter)
Dependent variables: survived protist (number per well) and protist survival (%)
