We describe temporal changes in the genetic structure of populations of the dinoflagellate Prorocentrum micans Ehrenberg over a period of 2 years at Scripps Pier (La Jolla, CA, USA). We collected 12 water samples over the course of two blooms and analyzed 166 single‐cell isolates using randomly ampl...
