Description
Prymnesium parvum causes harmful algal blooms worldwide that are often associated with massive fish-kills and
subsequent economic losses. Most of our knowledge of the toxicity of P. parvum derives from bioassays since
methods for the identification and quantification of their toxins have been lacking. Recently, a quantitation
method was developed for the causative lytic toxins, the prymnesins. Here, we for the first time present data on
the influence of irradiance on cellular content and production of prymnesins under nutrient replete conditions in
two P. parvum strains, which both produce B-type prymnesins.
