First evidence of sperm motility inhibition by the diatom aldehyde 2E, 4E-decadienal

Diatoms synthesise bioactive unsaturated short-chain aldehydes (SCAs) in response to wound-activation. The defensive SCAs are toxic to developmental stages of a range of invertebrate species including copepods, sea urchins, polychaetes and ascidians. Embryotoxicity is dose-dependent, with inhibition...
