Simazine Enhances Dark Fermentative H2 Production by Unicellular Halotolerant Cyanobacterium Aphanothece halophytica [PDF]

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
The halotolerant cyanobacterium Aphanothece halophytica is a potential H2 producer that induces H2 evolution under nitrogen deprivation. H2 is mainly produced via the catabolism of stored glycogen under dark anaerobic condition. H2 evolution is catalyzed

Cyanobacteria in winter: Seasonal dynamics of harmful algal blooms and their driving factors in boreal lakes [PDF]

Heliyon
Lake cyanobacteria can overgrow and form blooms, often releasing life-threatening toxins. Harmful algal blooms (HABs) are typically caused by excess nutrients and high temperatures, but recent observations of cyanobacteria beneath the ice in boreal lakes

Population growth potential of rotifers from a high altitude eutrophic waterbody, Madín reservoir (State of Mexico, Mexico): The importance of seasonal sampling

Journal of Limnology, 2018
To understand the population growth potential of different species of rotifers in nature, field collections through seasons are essential. We sampled zooplankton (and measured selected physicochemical variables) from the Madín reservoir, a high altitude ...

Identification of Cyanobacteria in a Eutrophic Coastal Lagoon on the Southern Baltic Coast

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Cyanobacteria are found worldwide in various habitats. Members of the picocyanobacteria genera Synechococcus and Prochlorococcus dominate in oligotrophic ocean waters. Other picocyanobacteria dominate in eutrophic fresh or brackish waters. Usually, these
