The Impact of Cyanobacteria Blooms on the Aquatic Environment and Human Health
Cyanobacteria blooms are a global aquatic environment problem. In recent years, due to global warming and water eutrophication, the surface cyanobacteria accumulate in a certain area to form cyanobacteria blooms driven by wind.

Genomics of Urea Transport and Catabolism in Cyanobacteria: Biotechnological Implications
Cyanobacteria are widely-diverse prokaryotes that colonize our planet. They use solar energy to assimilate huge amounts of atmospheric CO2 and produce a large part of the biomass and oxygen that sustain most life forms.
