From: Effects of predator lipids on dinoflagellate defence mechanisms - increased bioluminescence capacity
Total luminescence capacity of (a) L. polyedra and (b) A. tamarense exposed to 0, 1 and 10 nM copepodamides. (a) L. polyedra total luminescence capacity increased with increasing copepodamide concentration (pANOVA < 0.0001, pSNK < 0.05, n = 4, bars denote mean ± s.e.m.). (b) A. tamarense luminescence capacity increased with increasing copepodamide concentration (pANOVA = 0.002, pSNK < 0.05, n = 4, bars denote mean ± s.e.m.). Different letters above data bars indicate statistical difference between treatments. (c–d) Original recordings displaying the first 15 seconds of the luminescence response from a single sample of (c) L. polyedra (approx. 400 cells sample−1) and (d) A. tamarense (approx. 1000 cells sample−1) to acidification after treatment with 0 (black), 1 (blue) and 10 (green) nM copepodamides.
