The increasing incidence of mass developments of Cyanobacteria in fresh-and brackish
water is a matter of growing concern due to the production of toxins that threaten human and …

The nitrogen-fixing bacterium, Nostoc, is a commonly occurring cyanobacterium often found
in symbiotic associations. We investigated the potential of cycad cyanobacterial …

Oneida Lake is a shallow, eutrophic lake with a well-established cyanobacterial population
with reported toxic blooms containing hepatotoxic microcystins (MC). Peak bloom events …

Cyanobacteria from estuarine habitats have been poorly studied regarding diversity and
potential bioactive compounds production compared with their fresh and marine waters' …

The chip and quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) assays were optimized to study the
expression of microcystin biosynthesis genes (mcy) with RNA samples extracted from …

The reoccurrence of significant cyanobacterial blooms in Lake Erie during the last 13 years
has raised questions concerning the long-term persistence of microcystin-producing …

A putative operon encoding the biosynthetic pathway for the cytotoxic cyanobacterial
lipopeptides puwainphycins was identified in Cylindrospermum alatosporum. Bioinformatics …

Despite their pivotal role as primary producers, there is little information as to the diversity
and physiology of cyanobacteria in the meltwater ecosystems of polar regions. Thirty …

The paper presents results from the first application of polyphasic approach in studies of
field samples from Bulgaria. This approach, which combined the conventional light …

The microcystin (MC) content and cyanobacterial community structure of Antarctic microbial
mat samples collected from 40 ponds, lakes, and hydroterrestrial environments were …
