OPEN-ENDED QUESTION ABOUT HARMFUL ALGAE
Light inverted microscope identification problems
Update with new species or change in taxonomy
Other methods of identification
Sampling managment (methods, frequency)
Why algae produce toxins and how many
Behaviour of shellfish with harmful algae (presence of algae doesn’t link always to marine biotoxin in shellfish)
Only cultivation of harmful algae can improve the knowledge of biotoxin in shellfish
Harmful algae are a recent discovery (’90s)
Thank you for your attention
