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.

Timing the evolution of antioxidant enzymes in cyanobacteria
The ancestors of cyanobacteria generated Earth’s first biogenic molecular oxygen, but how they dealt with oxidative stress remains unconstrained. Here we investigate when superoxide dismutase enzymes (SODs) capable of removing superoxide free radicals ...
