[9] [10] Dinoflagellates are alveolates possessing two flagella, the ancestral condition of bikonts.

Dinoflagellates are microbial eukaryotes that link bioluminesce and toxin production in algal blooms. [39] They use a luciferin-luciferase reaction to create a blue light emission glow. [ 40 ] There are seventeen major types of dinoflagellate toxins, in which the strains, Saxitoxin and Yessotoxin, are both bioluminescent and toxic.
