Substrate preferences and effects of medium with soil extract on growth of genus Coolia (Dinophyceae)

Coolia is a benthic dinoflagellate that lives epiphytically with a substrate. It has been reported that several of the species produce biotoxins. Therefore, this study was done to identify the substrate preferred by Coolia and the effect of media with soil extraction on the growth of the species of...
