Abstract
Abstract Recently, some aquatic cyanobacteria and bacteria were found to produce norharmane and other β-carboline analogs. Some studies revealed bioactivity of these compounds against cyanobacteria and microalgae in batch monocultures. However, the toxic effects of these compounds on natural plankton community have not been explored yet. In the present study, laboratory microcosm experiments were conducted to test the possible allelopathic effects of norharmane on freshwater plankton community (
