“…Positive effects of bacteria on cultured microalgae have also been observed (29,75,101,128) (see above). It is conceivable that bacteria can indirectly influence the health or the zootechnical performance of the cultured aquatic animals through their effect on the microalgae used as food or in the greenwater technique.…”

“…Unicellular algae are often given as a first food or are included in the culture system as a food for rotifers and Artemia. Bacteria increase the growth rate and yield of algae (29,75,128). However, since bacteria may also inhibit algal growth (75), careful screening may be necessary when bacteria are to be used as probiotics in larval rearing or in the green-water technique.…”

“…This approach has already been used to study the effects of several bacterial strains on cultures of unicellular algae (29,75,128), the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis (82,108), the brine shrimp Artemia (140), turbot larvae (75,82), and larvae of the oyster Crassostrea gigas (27,82). Generally these cultures are performed on a small scale, where all inputs (culture water, feed, etc.)…”

SUMMARY There is an urgent need in aquaculture to develop microbial control strategies, since disease outbreaks are recognized as important constraints to aquaculture production and trade and since the development of antibiotic resistance has become a matter of growing concern. One of the alternatives to antimicrobials in disease control could be the use of probiotic bacteria as microbial control agents. This review describes the state of the art of probiotic research in the culture of fish, crustaceans, mollusks, and live food, with an evaluation of the results obtained so far. A new definition of probiotics, also applicable to aquatic environments, is proposed, and a detailed description is given of their possible modes of action, i.e., production of compounds that are inhibitory toward pathogens, competition with harmful microorganisms for nutrients and energy, competition with deleterious species for adhesion sites, enhancement of the immune response of the animal, improvement of water quality, and interaction with phytoplankton. A rationale is proposed for the multistep and multidisciplinary process required for the development of effective and safe probiotics for commercial application in aquaculture. Finally, directions for further research are discussed.

“…The interaction between bacteria and phytoplankton is increasingly recognized as an important factor in the physiology and dynamics of harmful algal blooms (HABs), including raphidophyte blooms (Doucette, 1995;Doucette et al, 1998). Different phylogenetic groups of bacteria have been observed to associate with different phases of algal blooms (Smith et al, 1995;Riemann et al, 2000) with impacts ranging from algal growth enhancement (Furuki and Kobayashi, 1991;Ogata et al, 1996;Suminto and Hirayama, 1997;Ferrier et al, 2002) to algicidal or algistatic effects www.elsevier.com/locate/hal Harmful Algae 7 (2008) 1-10 (Imai et al, 1993;Doucette, 1995;Imai et al, 1995;Yoshinaga et al, 1995Yoshinaga et al, , 1997Fukami et al, 1996;Lovejoy et al, 1998;Doucette et al, 1999;Skerratt et al, 2002;Liu et al, accepted).…”

Growth of and the capacity to take up nitrogen in the freshwater microalgae Chlorella vulgaris were studied while varying the concentrations of ammonium and nitrate, the pH and the source of carbon in a synthetic wastewater growth medium when co-immobilized in alginate beads with the microalgae growth-promoting bacterium Azospirillum brasilense. Analyses of 29 independent experiments showed that co-immobilization of the microalgae with A. brasilense could result in two independent phenomena directly affected by cultivation factors, such as nitrogen species, pH and presence of a carbon source. First, growth of the microalgal population increased without an increase in the capacity of the single cells to take up nitrogen, or second, the capacity of cells to take up nitrogen increased without an increase of the total microalgal population. These phenomena were dependent on the population density of the microalgae, which was in turn affected by cultivation factors. This supports the conclusion that the size of the microalgal population controls the uptake of nitrogen in C. vulgaris cells - the higher the population (regardless the experimental parameters), the less nitrogen each cell takes up.
