Update of the Planktonic Diatom Genus <i>Pseudo-nitzschia</i> in Aotearoa New Zealand Coastal Waters: Genetic Diversity and Toxin Production

Update of the Planktonic Diatom Genus <i>Pseudo-nitzschia</i> in Aotearoa New Zealand Coastal Waters: Genetic Diversity and Toxin Production

Domoic acid (DA) is produced by almost half of the species belonging to the diatom genus <i>Pseudo-nitzschia</i> and causes amnesic shellfish poisoning (ASP). It is, therefore, important to investigate the diversity and toxin production of <i>Pseudo-nitzschia</i> species for...
