In recent decades, alongside the comparatively well-studied bloom caused by
phytoplankton, a bloom of marine and fresh waters caused by littoral benthic macroalgae of …

Culture experiments were conducted on ten phytoplankton species to examine their
biological and physiological responses during exposure to oil and a combination of oil and …

Extreme environments may support communities of microalgae living at the limits of their
tolerance. It is usually assumed that these extreme environments are inhabited by …

The term 'experimental evolution'refers to short-term evolutionary experiments with
microorganisms under controlled conditions in which selection is expected to occur. In …

Lindane is especially worrisome because its persistence in aquatic ecosystems, tendency to
bioaccumulation and toxicity. We studied the adaptation of freshwater cyanobacteria and …

There is increasing scientific interest in how phytoplankton reacts to petroleum
contamination, since crude oil and its derivatives are generating extensive contamination of …

Abstract Adaptation of Microcystis aeruginosa (Cyanobacteria) to resist the herbicide
glyphosate was analysed by using an experimental model. Growth of wild-type, glyphosate …

Investigating the differential capacity of the response of phytoplankton to human‐induced
environmental forcing has become a key issue to understanding further the future …

In order to study adaptation of microalgae to petroleum contamination, we have examined
an environmental stress gradient by crude oil contamination in the Arroyo Minero River …

A significant component of many different ecosystems, cyanobacteria occupy almost every
niche of the earth, including fresh and salt waters, rice fields, hot springs, arid deserts, and …
