Morphological and molecular characterization of potential amnesic shellfish poisoning toxin-producing diatom Pseudo-nitzschia (bacillariophyeae) from Malaysia

The genus Pseudo-nitzschia is one of the most well studied marine diatoms as fifteen of the species are known tp produce the neurotoxin, domoic acid (DA) that is responsible for Amnesic shellfish Poisoning (ASP). Thus far, little attention is given to the distribution of Pseudo-nitzchia spp. In Mala...
