Bioprospecting for industrially relevant exopolysaccharide-producing cyanobacteria under Portuguese simulated climate [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Cyanobacterial exopolysaccharides (EPS) are potential candidates for the production of sustainable biopolymers. Although the bioactive and physicochemical properties of cyanobacterial-based EPS are attractive, their commercial exploitation is limited by ...

The genome sequences of the marine diatom Epithemia pelagica strain UHM3201 (Schvarcz, Stancheva & Steward, 2022) and its nitrogen-fixing, endosymbiotic cyanobacterium [version 1; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]

open access: yesWellcome Open Research
We present the genome assembly of the pennate diatom Epithemia pelagica strain UHM3201 (Ochrophyta; Bacillariophyceae; Rhopalodiales; Rhopalodiaceae) and that of its cyanobacterial endosymbiont (Chroococcales: Aphanothecaceae). The genome sequence of the

Polyphasic Characterization and Taxonomic Evaluation of a Bloom-Forming Strain Morphologically Resembling Radiocystis fernandoi (Chroococcales, Cyanobacteria) from Lake Erhai, China

open access: yesDiversity, 2022
Microcystis-dominated blooms cause environmental and ecological impacts worldwide. However, it is sometimes challenging to correctly identify Microcystis and its related genera.

Molecular Diversity of Microcystis Strains (Cyanophyceae, Chroococcales) Based on 16S rDNA Sequences

open access: yesSystematics and Geography of Plants, 2000
Partial 16S rDNA sequences were determined for six Microcystis strains from lakes in the region of Plön (Northern Germany) assigned to four different species on the basis of their morphology. These sequences appear very similar to each other and to those of 71 Microcystis strains from four continents available in the databases.

Allelopathic activity of the Synechococcus sp. (Cyanobacteria, Chroococcales) on selected cyanobacteria species

open access: yesAnnales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis Studia Naturae, 2016
Picocyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. is very important but still poorly understood component of marine and freshwater ecosystems. In this study, the effect of single and multiple addition of cell-free filtrate obtained from Synechococcus sp.

Biodiversity and interannual variation of cyanobacteria density in an estuary of the brazilian Amazon

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2021
The influence of environmental variables on planktonic biodiversity is widely known. However, the absence of information about the cyanobacterial community in tropical estuarine regions motivated this work, whose objective was to investigate the spatio ...
