Abstract
The pursuit of environmentally friendly and highly effective antifouling materials for marine applications is of paramount importance. In this study, we successfully synthesized novel rare earth-based complexes by coordinating cerium (Ce III), samarium (Sm III), and europium (Eu III) with pyrithione (1-hydroxy-2-pyridinethione; PT). Extensive characterizations were performed, including single-crystal X-ray analysis, which revealed the intriguing binuclear structure of these complexes. This structural motif comprises two rare-earth ions intricately double-bridged by two oxygen atoms from the PT ligand, resulting in a distinctive and intriguing geometry. Furthermore, the central rare earth ion is surrounded by three sulfur atoms and two additional oxygen atoms, forming a unique distorted bicapped trigonal prismatic configuration. Compared with conventional antifouling biocides such as sodium pyrithione (NaPT), copper pyrithione (CuPT), and zinc pyrithione (ZnPT), these newly synthesized rare-earth complexes exhibited a remarkable boost in their in vitro antibacterial efficacy against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Additionally, these complexes demonstrated significant potential as antialgal agents, displaying impressive activity against marine planktonic organisms. These findings underscore the promising application prospects of these rare-earth complexes in the field of marine antifouling.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 30:5973-5982.

Abstract
Acidification of seawater resulting from absorption of excessive carbon dioxide from the atmosphere is posing a serious threat to marine ecosystem. In this study, we hypothesized that acidified seawater attenuates allelopathic effects of macroalgae on red tide algae because the increase of dissolved carbon dioxide benefits algal growth, and investigated the allelopathic effects of Ulva pertusa on Karenia mikimotoi in response to seawater acidification by determining cell density, photosynthetic pigment content, chlorophyll fluorescence parameters, and chloroplast structure of K. mikimotoi under U. pertusa stress in original (pH=8.2) and acidified (pH=7.8) seawater. U. pertusa inhibited the growth of K. mikimotoi in the original and acidizing seawater, and the inhibition rate was positively correlated with treatment time and concentration of U. pertusa. However, acidizing condition significantly weakened the inhibition degree of U. pertusa on K. mikimotoi (P < 0.05), with the inhibition rates decreased from 51.85 to 43.16% at 10 gFW/L U. pertusa for 96 h. U. pertusa reduced contents of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll c, and carotenoid, maximum photochemical quantum yield (Fv/Fm), actual quantum yield, maximum relative electron transfer efficiency (rETRmax) of PSII, real-time fluorescence value (F), and maximum fluorescence value (Fm') of PSII of K. mikimotoi under original and acidified conditions. And, the inhibition degree of U. pertusa under acidizing condition was significantly lower than that of original seawater group. Furthermore, the damage degree of chloroplast structure of K. mikimotoi under U. pertusa stress was more serious under original seawater condition. These results indicate that acidification of seawater attenuates the allelopathic effects of U. pertusa on K. mikimotoi.

MARINE POLLUTION BULLETIN 2022; 178:113657.

Abstract
Harmful algal blooms (HABs) have induced severe damage worldwide. A novel high-efficient antialgal natural chemical, 3-indoleacrylic acid (3-IDC) with a 5-day half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50, 5d), was discovered from canola straw, and its algal inhibition mechanism was investigated. Adverse effects were observed on the growth of P. donghaiense with 3-IDC addition, following an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. 3-IDC also hindered the photosynthetic mechanism of P. donghaiense cells. Transcriptional results showed 3-IDC inhibiting the functions of all the nutrient assimilating genes, down-regulated ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase II, and cytochrome f genes. The expression of heat shock protein (HSP) 70 and 90 and rhodopsin genes were also suppressed. The binding affinity of investigated receptors was observed. The conformational changes induced by the spatial microstructural alteration through 3-IDC may further contribute to the perturbation of those enzyme catalytic activities. The present results provide new insights on controlling HABs using 3-IDC.

Abstract
Modified clay (MC), an effective material used for the emergency elimination of algal blooms, can rapidly reduce the biomass of harmful algal blooms (HABs) via flocculation. After that, MC can still control bloom population through indirect effects such as oxidative stress, which was initially proposed to be related to programmed cell death (PCD) at molecular level. To further study the MC induced cell death in residual bloom organisms, especially identifying PCD process, we studied the physiological state of the residual Prorocentrum donghaiense. The experimental results showed that flocculation changed the physiological state of the residual cells, as evidenced by growth inhibition and increased reactive oxygen species production. Moreover, this research provides biochemical and ultrastructural evidence showing that MC induces PCD in P. donghaiense. Nuclear changes were observed, and increased caspase-like activity, externalization of phosphatidylserine and DNA fragmentation were detected in MC-treated groups and quantified. And the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway was activated in both MC-treated groups. Besides, the features of MC-induced PCD in a unicellular organism were summarized and its concentration dependent manner was proved. All our preliminary results elucidate the mechanism through which MC can further control HABs by inducing PCD and suggest a promising application of PCD in bloom control.

The potential of prodigiosin for control of Prorocentrum donghaiense blooms: Algicidal properties and acute toxicity to other marine organisms at various trophic levels. ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2021; 228:112913. [PMID: 34895730 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2021.112913] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2021] [Revised: 10/09/2021] [Accepted: 10/13/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
Prorocentrum donghaiense, a marine dinoflagellate, causes harmful algal blooms (HABs) characterised by the highest outbreak frequency and most extensive coverage among similar species in the East China Sea. Highly efficient and ecofriendly biocontrol strategies should be developed for HAB control. Prodigiosin is an efficient biological algicide that demonstrated strong algicidal activity towards P. donghaiense. However, the mechanism of its toxicity to P. donghaiense is unknown. These factors were investigated to evaluate potential use of prodigiosin for control of P. donghaiense blooms. Photosynthetic electron transport rate, maximum quantum yield and respiration rate of P. donghaiense decreased significantly upon exposure to prodigiosin, indicating that prodigiosin rapidly exerted adverse effects on the chloroplasts and mitochondria. Furthermore, a significant increase in dichlorofluorescein fluorescence intensity indicated an overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The antioxidant system of P. donghaiense scavenged ROS; however, an increase in malondialdehyde concentrations indicated that excessive ROS were still able to initiate lipid peroxidation. Thus, ROS production resulted in the formation of lipids with a reduced degree of unsaturation. Lipid peroxidation decreased lipid fluidity and rigidified the membrane system, causing serious functional destruction of the membrane. Flow cytometry analysis indicated that prodigiosin arrested the cell cycle of P. donghaiense. However, surviving algal cells were able to repair the damaged functions and resume the cell cycle after prodigiosin was removed by photodegradation. Otherwise, P. donghaiense cells lost their membrane integrity and died. To begin an evaluation of ecological safety of prodigiosin, we tested four marine organisms at various trophic levels. The results of these tests indicated that Chlorella vulgaris, Photobacterium phosphoreum, Artemia salina and Lateolabrax japonicus were less sensitive to prodigiosin than P. donghaiense. Toxicity to all five organisms declined after prodigiosin was exposed to sunlight for 6 h. Considering the toxic doses of prodigiosin to various organisms and its photodegradation characteristics, we suggest that prodigiosin has potential in controlling P. donghaiense blooms but should be applied at night, in small doses, with multiple applications.

Abstract
In this study, we aim to explore the allelochemicals of marine brown algae Sargassum fusiforme and the mechanism of allelopathy effect on Heterosigma akashiwo. Six potential allelopathic substances, palmitic acid, arachidonic acid, α-linolenic acid (ALA), fucosterol, 24-hydroperoxy-24-vinylcholesterol, and saringosterowere, were isolated and identified from S. fusiforme by column chromatography, NMR, TOF-MS and GC-MS analyses. The ALA and 24-hydroperoxy-24-vinylcholesterol showed remarkable inhibitory activities on H. akashiwo growth. Besides, the allelopathic mechanism between the ALA and H. akashiwo was preliminarily investigated. The results indicated that the activities of SOD and POD of H. akashiwo gradually decreased under high ALA concentration. The reduction of photosynthetic pigments and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters, as well as apparent electron transport rate in H. akashiwo cells, aggravated gradually with increasing the concentration of the ALA. In summary, this study revealed the responses of morphology and physiology of H. akashiwo when exposed by ALA, while revealing the potential of macroalgae in red tide control.

Abstract
Over the last decades, Harmful Cyanobacterial Blooms (HCBs) represent one of the most conspicuous hazards to human health in freshwater ecosystems, due to the uses of the water for drinking, recreation and aquaculture. Cyanobacteria are one of the main biological components in freshwater ecosystems and they may proliferate in nutrients rich ecosystems causing severe impacts at different levels. Therefore, several methods have been applied to control cyanobacterial proliferation, including physical, chemical and biological strategies. However, the application of those methods is generally not very efficient. Research on an eco-friendly alternative leading to the isolation of new bioactive compounds with strong impacts against harmful cyanobacteria is a need in the field of water environment protection. Thus, this paper aims to give an overview of harmful cyanobacterial blooms and reviews the state of the art of studying the activities of biological compounds obtained from plants, seaweeds and microorganisms in the cyanobacterial bloom control.

Abstract
Marine macroalgae are a promising source of diverse bioactive compounds with applications in the biocontrol of harmful cyanobacteria blooms (cyanoHABs). In this work, we evaluated the potential algicidal activities of 14 species of seaweed collected from the coast of Souiria Laqdima, Morocco. Methanol extracts were screened in solid and liquid medium against the growth of the toxic cyanobacteria Microcystis aeruginosa and the microalgae Chlorella sp. used as food supplement. The results in solid medium revealed that the algicidal activity was limited to M. aeruginosa with the extract of Bornetia secundiflora showing the highest growth inhibition activity against Microcystis (27.33 ± 0.33 mm), whereas the extracts of Laminaria digitata, Halopytis incurvus, Ulva lactuca, and Sargasum muticum showed no inhibition. In liquid medium, the results indicated that all methanolic extracts of different macroalgae tested have a significant inhibitory effect on M. aeruginosa compared with that of the negative control. The maximum inhibition rates of M. aeruginosa were produced by the extracts of Bifurcaria tuberculata, Codium elongatum, and B. secundiflora. Moreover, the extracts of B. secundiflora recorded the maximum inhibition rate of Chlorella sp. Overall, the results highlight the potential of the extracts from macroalgae to control toxic cyanobacteria species.
