Allelopathy in aquatic environments may provide a competitive advantage to angiosperms,
algae, or cyanobacteria in their interaction with other primary producers. Allelopathy can …

It is considered self-evident that chemical interactions are a component of competition in
terrestrial systems, but they are largely unknown in aquatic systems. In this review, we …

Cyanobacterial blooms and the production of cyanotoxins represent a serious global
problem. Although the effects of a group of important cyanotoxins, microcystins (MCs), have …

We describe a novel allelopathic interaction whereby the cyanobacterium Microcystis sp.
inhibits photosynthesis in the freshwater dinoflagellate Peridinium gatunense by abolishing …

Many degraded waterbodies around the world are subject to strong proliferations of
cyanobacteria–notorious for their toxicity, high biomass build-up and negative impacts on …

Allelopathy can be defined as chemical interactions between and among both plants and
microorganisms via releases of biologically active chemical compounds into the …

The alga Botryococcus braunii Kützing (Chlorophyceae) present in Liyu Lake (Huanlien
County, Taiwan) has toxic effects on a variety of aquatic organisms. Blooms of this alga …

Allelopathy is widespread in marine, brackish, and freshwater habitats. Literature data
indicate that allelopathy could offer a competitive advantage for some phytoplankton species …

Cyanobacteria produce a large number and variety of bioactive allelochemical substances,
with a diverse range of biological activities and chemical structures, and with effects on …

One hundred and ninety-eight cyanobacterial strains, newly isolated mainly from samples
collected from diverse habitats in Australia, Indonesia, Nepal, Thailand and Vietnam, were …
