Phytoplankton, a group including eukaryotic microalgae and cyanobacteria, play a crucial climate role converting CO2 into organic carbon through global primary production. They support a wide range of life, both freshwater and marine, from zooplankton to fish and mammals. While they are essential in nutrient cycles, certain phytoplankton species can proliferate excessively under favorable conditions, leading to harmful algal blooms (HABs) that pose significant threats to human and ecosystem health through the toxins they produce.
