Occurrence and toxicity of Microcystis aeruginosa (Cyanobacteria) in the Paraná River, downstream of the Yacyretá dam (Argentina) [PDF]
, 2016 Cyanobacteria constitute the main toxin producers in inland water ecosystems and have extensive global distribution. The presence of hepatotoxins in aquatic environments is hazardous to human and animal health; even though the presence and identification

Deficiency of RgpG causes major defects in cell division and biofilm formation, and deficiency of LytR-CpsAPsr family proteins leads to accumulation of cell wall antigens in culture medium by Streptococcus mutans [PDF]
, 2017 Streptococcus mutans is known to possess rhamnose-glucose polysaccharide (RGP), a major cell wall antigen. S. mutans strains deficient in rgpG , encoding the first enzyme of the RGP biosynthesis

Antagonistic and synergistic responses to solar ultraviolet radiation and increased temperature of phytoplankton from cenotes (sink holes) of the Yucatán Peninsula, México [PDF]
, 2015 Cenotes (sink holes) are karstic formations characteristic of the Yucatán Peninsula and are the main source of fresh water in the region. Because of their tropical location, they receive high levels of solar radiation and are exposed to high temperatures.

Relationships between biovolume and carbon and nitrogen content of bacterioplankton [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 1994 Cell volume, carbon and nitrogen content were determined for bacteria grown in batch cultures in water samples collected at five localities in western Florida, USA. Cultures were set up by inoculating 0.2 μm filtered water with 2.5 to 7.0% of 1.0 μm filtered water. Biovolumes of the bacteria were measured by epifluorescence photomicrography.

Per capita interactions and stress tolerance drive stress-induced changes in biodiversity effects on ecosystem functions [PDF]
, 2016 Environmental stress changes the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem functions, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Because species interactions shape biodiversity-ecosystem functioning relationships, changes in per capita ...
