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 photosynthetic prokaryotes with wide geographic distribution that can
produce secondary metabolites named cyanotoxins. These toxins can be classified into …

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 …

Increased demand has pushed extensive aquaculture towards intensively operated
production systems, commonly resulting in eutrophic conditions and cyanobacterial blooms …

The recent invasion and proliferation of toxic cyanobacteria in diverse aquatic habitats is a
well-known worldwide phenomenon. The expansion of cyanobacterial blooms have the …

This paper reviews the rapidly expanding literature on the ecological effects of
cyanobacterial toxins. The study employs a qualitative meta–analysis from the literature …

The phenomenon of eutrophication leads to the global occurrence of algal blooms.
Cyanotoxins as produced by many cyanobacterial species can lead to detrimental effects to …

The objectives of this study were:(1) to examine the distribution and bioaccumulation of
microcystins in the main components of the food web (phytoplankton, zooplankton, crayfish …

Harmful algae may differently affect their primary grazers, causing sub-lethal effects and/or
leading to their death. The present study aim to compare the effects of three toxic benthic …

Feeding, reproduction and accumulation of cyanobacterial toxins by the calanoid copepods
Acartia bifilosa and Eurytemora affinis were studied during a cruise in the northern Baltic …
