Harmful algal blooms (HABs) represent a significant global marine ecological disaster. In the Yellow Sea, green and golden tides often occur simultaneously or sequentially, suggesting that interspecific competition involves not only spatial and resource competition but also allelopathy. This study investigated the allelopathic interactions between and using physiological and biochemical parameters, including relative growth rate (RGR), cell ultrastructure, chlorophyll fluorescence, enzyme activity, and metabolomics analysis.

Article Synopsis
- The gaur, an endangered species in Thailand, has seen a population increase from 35 to 300 individuals in the Khao Phaeng Ma Non-Hunting Area, but this growth has sparked conflicts with nearby villagers.
- Researchers analyzed mitochondrial DNA samples from GPS-collared gaurs, discovering three haplotypes that indicate low genetic diversity, suggesting limited maternal lineages within the population.
- Findings from genetic tests indicate that the gaur population may face future contraction, highlighting the need for informed management strategies to promote long-term sustainability.
