A Halo of Reduced Dinoflagellate Abundances In and Around Eelgrass Beds

E. Jacobs-Palmer, R. Gallego, A. Ramon-Laca, E. Kunselman, K. Cribari, M. Horwith, R. P. Kelly

The paper uses eDNA amplicons to show that eelgrass beds reduce dinoflagellate abundance within and around them, potentially through allelopathic effects.
