Bacterioplankton growth on extracellular organic carbon from marine microalgal cultures
(2005)Marine bacterial growth on extracellular organic carbon (EOC) of Chlorella minutissima, Dimaliella tertiolecta and Chaetoceros gracilis was studied. EOC was retrieved after filtration of optimum growing algal cultures at ... -
Detection of microcystins in Pamvotis lake water and assessment of cyanobacterial bloom toxicity
(2012)Lake Pamvotis is a shallow, eutrophic Mediterranean lake with ecological significance. This paper deals with the evaluation of cyanobacterial toxicity in Lake Pamvotis. ELISA and HPLC revealed the presence of significant ... -
Diversity of cyanobacterial phylotypes in a Mediterranean drinking water reservoir (Marathonas, Greece)
(2011)The structure of the cyanobacterial community in a large drinking water reservoir (Marathonas, Greece) was investigated in October 2007 and September 2008. Cyanobacteria-specific primers were used for the PCR amplification ... -
ECOLOGICAL MONITORING STUDIES, FOR VOLOS SEA OUTFALL (PAGASSITIKOS-GULF, WESTERN AEGEAN SEA)
(1995)Nutrient pollution in Pagassitikos Gulf arises mainly from the disposal of Volos untreated domestic wastewater inside Volos Bay, and also the agricultural run-off from the surrounding the Gulf cultivated areas. Volos Bay's ... -
THE ECOLOGICAL STATE OF THE ELEFSIS BAY PRIOR TO THE OPERATION OF THE ATHENS SEA OUTFALL
(1994)Nutrient pollution in Elefsis Bay arises mainly from the disposal of Athens untreated wastewater at the eastern entrance of the Bay. The absence of river discharge, lack of cultivated agricultural areas providing runoff ... -
Harmful and parasitic unicellular eukaryotes persist in a shallow lake under reconstruction (L. Karla, Greece)
(2013)The reconstructed Lake Karla, Greece, has been undergoing its water-filling period since November 2009. In this paper, we aimed at investigating whether the unicellular eukaryotes, including the toxic/parasitic ones, that ... -
Microbial Food Web Structure and Its Impact on Primary Production in a Meso-Oligotrophic Coastal Area (Pagasitikos Gulf, Aegean Sea)
(2014)Seasonal structure and dynamics of the planktonic microbial food web (phytoplankton, bacteria, nanoflagellates and ciliates) were studied in the meso-oligotrophic Pagasitikos Gulf, NW Aegean Sea. Pagasitikos Gulf is exposed ... -
Microscopic eukaryotes living in a dying lake (Lake Koronia, Greece)
(2009)The morphological and phylogenetic diversity of the microscopic eukaryotes of the Lake Koronia water column was investigated during a mass kill of birds and fish in August-September 2004. The dominant morphospecies ... -
Molecular detection of potentially toxic cyanobacteria and their associated bacteria in lake water column and sediment
(2010)We investigated the molecular diversity of cyanobacteria and bacteria during a water bloom in a lake with a long history of toxic cyanobacterial blooms (Lake Kastoria, Greece). We also tested the hypothesis whether ... -
Mussel farming impacts on trophic status and benthic community structure in Maliakos Gulf (Eastern Mediterranean)
(2014)The impact of shellfish farming on the water column nutrient concentration and the benthic community structure was investigated seasonally at a mussel farm (Mytilus galloprovincialis L.) of Maliakos Gulf (Eastern Mediterranean). ... -
A numerical approach to simulate nutrient dynamics and primary production of a semi-enclosed coastal ecosystem (Pagassitikos Gulf, Western Aegean, Greece)
(2000)Pagassitikos Gulf is a relatively shallow semi-enclosed bay at the western part of Aegean sea influenced by industrial, urban and agricultural activities concentrated mainly at the North part. Field measurements since 1975 ... -
Plankton Microorganisms Coinciding with Two Consecutive Mass Fish Kills in a Newly Reconstructed Lake
(2012)Lake Karla, Greece, was dried up in 1962 and its refilling started in 2009. We examined the Cyanobacteria and unicellular eukaryotes found during two fish kill incidents, in March and April 2010, in order to detect possible ... -
Polyphasic evaluation of Aphanizomenon issatschenkoi and Raphidiopsis mediterranea in a Mediterranean lake
(2010)Aphanizomenon issatschenkoi and Raphidiopsis mediterranea were studied in the Mediterranean Lake Doirani during a cyanobacterial bloom (August-October 2004). Aphanizomenon issatschenkoi was clearly morphologically distinct ...
