Dormancy and germination features in resting cysts of Alexandrium tamarense species complex (Dinophyceae) can facilitate bloom formation in a shallow lagoon (Thau, southern France) (2009)

Genovesi, Benjamin, Laabir, Mohamed, Masseret, Estelle, Collos, Yves, Vaquer, André, Grzebyk, Daniel

This study investigated the dormancy length, germination patterns and cyst progeny fate of Alexandrium catenella and A. tamarense found in Thau lagoon, France. In laboratory-produced cysts, the...

Pheopigment dynamics, zooplankton grazing rates and the autumnal ammonium peak in a Mediterranean lagoon (2005)

COLLOS, Yves, HUSSEINI RATREMA, Julie, BEC, Béatrice, VAQUER, André, HOAI, Thong Lam, ROUGIER, Claude, ...

The dilution technique was used to estimate chlorophyll and pheopigment, net and gross production as well as zooplankton grazing over a 12-month period in a coastal lagoon in Southern France....

Phytoplankton seasonal dynamics in a Mediterranean coastal lagoon: emphasis on the picoeukaryote community (2005)

BEC, Béatrice, HUSSEINI RATREMA, Julie, COLLOS, Yves, SOUCHU, Philippe, VAQUER, André

The dynamics of the phytoplankton community were investigated in a marine coastal lagoon (Thau, NW Mediterranean) from February 1999 to January 2000. Dilution experiments, chlorophyll a (Chl a)...

Feeding rate of the oyster Crassostrea gigas in a natural planktonic community of the Mediterranean Thau Lagoon (2000)

DUPUY, Christine, VAQUER, André, LAM HOAI, Thong, ROUGIER, Claude, MAZOUNI, Nabila, LAUTIER, Jacques, ...

The Mediterranean Thau Lagoon is an important oyster farming area in Europe. Oyster growth rates are among the highest in France, although chlorophyll a concentration is low. Previous studies have...

Modelling nitrogen, primary production and oxygen in a Mediterranean lagoon. Impact of oysters farming and inputs from the watershed (2000)

CHAPELLE, Annie, MENESGUEN, Alain, DESLOUS-PAOLI, Jean-Marc, SOUCHU, Philippe, MAZOUNI, Nabila, VAQUER, André, ...

An ecosystem model based on nitrogen cycling and oxygen has been developed for the Thau lagoon. It takes into account the specific features of this Mediterranean lagoon, a semi-confined system with...

Unexpected Genetic Diversity among and within Populations of the Toxic Dinoflagellate Alexandrium catenella as Revealed by Nuclear Microsatellite Markers▿

Masseret, Estelle, Grzebyk, Daniel, Nagai, Satoshi, Genovesi, Benjamin, Lasserre, Bernard, Laabir, Mohamed, ...

Since 1998, blooms of Alexandrium catenella associated with paralytic shellfish poisoning have been repeatedly reported for Thau Lagoon (French Mediterranean coast). Based on data obtained for rRNA...
