Four common dinoflagellate species (Prorocentrum micans, Prorocentrum lima, Protoceratium reticulatum & Scrippsiella trochoidea) were grown in 240 single and 60 mixed cultures covering 10 different N:P ratios (between 8 and 24) and two temperature scenarios (20°C and 24°C). Cell counts, nutrient measurements and toxin extractions were made. Overall, the N:P ratio did not affect the individual performance of the algae and, hence, had no structuring role in the competition between dinoflagellates.
