ABSTRACT
Phosphorus and temperature play an important role in the succession of diatom-dinoflagellate blooms. However, there is little long-term research on interspecific competition based on phosphorus source and temperature. Here, interspecific competition among Skeletonema costatum, Prorocentrum donghaiense and Karenia mikimotoi was studied using trialgal laboratory co-cultures under different phosphorus and temperature conditions. These results suggest that S. costatum and P. donghaiense alternated as competing dominant species during the experimental period, which coincides with the different phosphorus conditions. However, K. mikimotoi growth was significantly inhibited throughout the experiment. We suggest that this may be due to different algal requirements for phosphorus, optimal growth temperatures, and possible allelopathic effects. This study provides a comprehensive mechanism of interspecific competition between diatom-dinoflagellate in response to phosphorus and temperature and elucidates the seasonal succession of diatom-dinoflagellate from late spring to early summer in the Changjiang River Estuary and the adjacent East China Sea.
