Abstract
Production of potentially defensive polyunsaturated aldehydes in marine diatoms is modulated by physiological state of the cells as related to age and nutrient status. This explains high variability in feeding experiments and also implies that diatoms at the end of a bloom are more chemically defended than at its onset.
