According to bloom densities, the effects of monocuhure and mixture of the two species were examined on the egg-hatching success ofArgopecten irradiarts Lamarck, and the population growth of Brachionus plicatilis MUller and Moina mongolica Daday. The results showed that monocuhure of A. catenella had a significant inhibition on the egg hatching success of A. irradians, and the population growth of B. plicatilis and M. mongolica. The median effective densities （ED50） inhibiting the egg hatching success of A. irradhms for 24 h and the population growth of B. plicatilis and M. mongolica for 96 h were 800, 630, and 2 400 cells/cm^3 , respectively. Monoculture of P. dongha/ense has no such inhibitory effect on the egg hatching success of A. irradians; P. donghaiense at lower suitable densities could sustain the population growth of B. plicatilis （ 1 × 10^4 ～ 3 ×10^4 cells/cm^3 ） and M. mongolica （2 × 10^4～5 ×10^4 cells/cm^3 ） ; P. donghaiense at higher densities had significantly adverse effect on the population growth of B. plicatilis （4 × 10^4 ～ 10×10^4 cells/cm^3 ） and M. mongolica （ 10 ×10^4 cells/cm^3）. When the two algae were mixed according to bloom densities, P. donghaiense at suitable densities to some extent could decrease the toxicity of A. catenella to B. plicatilis and M. mongolica. The results indicated that the large-scale HAB in the East China Sea could have adverse effect on zooplankton, and might further influence the marine ecosystem, especially when there was also Alexandrium bloom.展开更多

Ten strains of Alexandrium species, including Alexandrium tamarense （AT-6, ATHK, ATCI02, ATCI03 and AT5-1）, A. catenella （ACDH）, A. affine （AC-1 and AS-1）, A. lusitanicum and A A. tamarense （ATHK, ATCI02 and AT5-1） and A minutum were tested. The results showed that affine （AC-1 and AS-1）, but not A. tamarense （AT-6 and ATCI02）, A. catenella （ACDH）, A. lusitanicum and A. minutum had significantly negative effects on the survival of M. mongoliea; when exposed to these ten strains of Alexandrium species in densities of 3 000 cells/cm^3 for 7 d, respecyively. M. mongolica could feed on A. tamarense （AT-6, ATHK, ATCI02, ATCI03 and AT5-1）, A. eatenella, A. lusitanieum and A. minutum, but exhibited little or no grazing on A. affine （AC-1 and AS-1）, based on the changes in gut pigment af- ter exposure to alga for 1 and 12 h. A. affine AC-1, which had the strongest toxicity on the survival of M. mongolica, was chosen to further study the negative effects on M. mongolica. The results showed that the effect of A. affine AC-1 on the survival of M. mongolica was density-dependent, and its lethal effects on one-day, two-day and three-day old M. mongolica were exacerbated with increasing age; The whole algal culture, re-suspended algal cells, cell fragments and cell contents all had adverse impacts on the survival of M. mongolica. Moreover, both juvenile numbers and life-span time of M. mongolica were decreased significantly when they were cultured in A. affine AC-1 of 10 and 50 cells/cm^3, combined with 3×10^6 cells/cm^3 of Chlorella spp., respectively. As a non-PSP producer, A. affine may produce other toxins, responsible for the strong negative effects on M. mongolica.展开更多

The aim of this work is to study the histology of this cladoceran by light microscopy so as to expand the knowledge of this species. The parthenogenetic females were fixed in formaldehyde 4%. Sections were cut 3 μm thick and stained with Hematoxylin and Eosin. The intestine has simple cuboidal epithelium with apical projections and the cells have 1 or 2 nucleoli in their nuclei. Two compound eyes were found and no naupliar ocelum. The ovary is saccular and it is presented in a pair at both sides of the intestine with follicles in different states of development. The striated muscle with notorious microfibrills is recognized in antennas, antennules and trunk appendices. This article may represent the first detailed description of the histology of this species.展开更多
