Harmful cyanobacterial blooms (CyanoHABs) impact lakes, estuaries, and freshwater
reservoirs worldwide. The duration, severity, and spread of CyanoHABs have markedly …

Freshwater harmful algal blooms (HABs) are increasing in number and severity worldwide.
These HABs are chiefly composed of one or more species of cyanobacteria, also known as …

Harmful cyanobacteria are a global environmental problem, yet we lack actionable
understanding of toxigenic versus nontoxigenic strain ecology and toxin production. We …

Billions of years ago, the Earth's waters were dominated by cyanobacteria. These microbes
amassed to such formidable numbers, they ushered in a new era—starting with the Great …

Background Phosphonates are the main components in the global phosphorus redox cycle.
Little is known about phosphonate metabolism in freshwater ecosystems, although rapid …

Microorganisms in activated sludge from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) form
complex networks to convert a wide variety of pollutants, thus ensuring water purification …

Bacteria play a crucial role in driving ecological processes in aquatic ecosystems. Studies
have shown that bacteria–cyanobacteria interactions contributed significantly to …

Since the 2007 water crisis occurred in Lake Taihu, substantial measures have been taken
to restore the lake. This study evaluates the effectiveness of these restoration activities. We …

Interactions between heterotrophic bacteria and cyanobacteria regulate the structure and
function of aquatic ecosystems and are thus crucial for the prediction and management of …

The dynamic changes between toxic and non-toxic strains of Microcystis blooms have
always been a hot topic. Previous studies have found that low CO 2 favors toxic strains, but …
