Holmes, Michael J. and Lewis, Richard J. (2025). A general food chain model for bioaccumulation of ciguatoxin into herbivorous fish in the Pacific Ocean suggests few Gambierdiscus species can produce poisonous herbivores, and even fewer can produce poisonous higher trophic level fish. Toxins, 17 (11) 526, 1-29. doi: 10.3390/toxins17110526
Holmes, Michael J. and Lewis, Richard J. (2025). Modelling the bioaccumulation of ciguatoxins in parrotfish on the Great Barrier Reef reveals why biomagnification is not a property of ciguatoxin food chains. Toxins, 17 (8) 380, 1-23. doi: 10.3390/toxins17080380
