| Abstract: |
DINOPHYSIS NUTRITIONAL SOURCES I Dinophysis i species are obligate mixotrophs that require ciliate prey (e.g., I Mesodinium i species), light, and nutrients for sustained growth (Hansen et al., [16]; Kim, Kim, et al., [22]). These two issues are dealt with and all available results related to I Dinophysis i and their toxins in the United States are reviewed in: "A survey of I Dinophysis i spp. and their potential to cause diarrhetic shellfish poisoning in coastal waters of the United States" (Ayache et al., [3]). A synoptic view of the current distribution of I Dinophysis i species and reported DSP events (Figure 1) confirms that occurrence of toxic outbreaks is determined by the composition (profile and content) of local strains and the shellfish species affected (Blanco, [4]). Species of I Dinophysis i produce diarrhetic toxins and pectenotoxins and frequently cause harvesting bans in intensive shellfish cultivation sites in Western Europe, Chile, Perú, and Japan (Reguera et al., [29]).
