Cyanobacteria were present on the earth 3.5 billion years ago; since then they have
colonized almost all terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. They produce a high number of …

Cyanobacteria are ubiquitous microorganisms considered as important contributors to the
formation of Earth's atmosphere and nitrogen fixation. However, they are also frequently …

Cyanobacteria are the most ancient phytoplankton on the planet and form harmful algal
blooms in freshwater, estuarine, and marine ecosystems. Recent research suggests that …

Blooms of toxic cyanobacteria in water supply systems are a global issue affecting water
supplies on every major continent except Antarctica. The occurrence of toxic cyanobacteria …

Cyanobacteria are ecologically one of the most prolific groups of phototrophic prokaryotes in
both marine and freshwater habitats. Both the beneficial and detrimental aspects of …

Cyanobacterial blooms occur when algal densities exceed baseline population
concentrations. Cyanobacteria can produce a large number of secondary metabolites …

The cyanobacteria or “blue-green algae”, as they are commonly termed, comprise a diverse
group of oxygenic photosynthetic bacteria that inhabit a wide range of aquatic and terrestrial …

Blue‐green algae are found in lakes, ponds, rivers and brackish waters throughout the
world. In case of excessive growth such as bloom formation, these bacteria can produce …

Cyanobacteria are one of the most diverse groups of gram-negative photosynthetic
prokaryotes. Many of them are able to produce a wide range of toxic secondary metabolites …

Cyanobacteria possess many adaptations to develop population maxima or “blooms” in
lakes and reservoirs. A potential consequence of freshwater blooms of many cyanobacterial …
