SHORT COMMUNICATION

Long-term exposure of dinoflagellates to 14carbon: effects on growth rate and measurements of carbon content

Exposure of photosynthetic dinoflagellates to low specific activities of 14C for several days led to a significant reduction in growth rates and overestimation of14C-based measurements of cellular C content. No effect was observed in other taxonomic groups examined.
