The cyanobacterium Microcystis aeruginosa is a globally distributed bloom-forming
organism that degrades freshwater systems around the world. Factors that drive its
dispersion, diversification and success remain, however, poorly understood. To develop
insight into cellular-level responses to nutrient drivers of eutrophication, RNA sequencing
was coupled to a comprehensive metabolomics survey of M. aeruginosa sp. NIES 843
grown in various nutrient-reduced conditions. Transcriptomes were generated for cultures …
