Aquatic and terrestrial cyanobacteria produce methane
Science Advances, 2020 Cyanobacteria, the most ancient and abundant photoautotrophs on Earth, produce the greenhouse gas methane during photosynthesis. Evidence is accumulating to challenge the paradigm that biogenic methanogenesis, considered a strictly anaerobic process, is ...

Effect of coir pith based cyanobacterial basal and foliar biofertilizer on Basella rubra L.
Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2007 The growth promoting effect of basal and foliar application of coir pith based cyanobacterial biofertilizer on Basella rubra L. was determined by analyzing the morphological and biochemical parameters of the control and test plants after treatment ...

The cyanobacterial role in the resistance of feather mosses to decomposition--toward a new hypothesis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Cyanobacteria-plant symbioses play an important role in many ecosystems due to the fixation of atmospheric nitrogen (N) by the cyanobacterial symbiont. The ubiquitous feather moss Pleurozium schreberi (Brid.) Mitt. is colonized by cyanobacteria in boreal

Quantification of Moss-Associated Cyanobacteria Using Phycocyanin Pigment Extraction
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 In the boreal forest, cyanobacteria can establish associations with feather moss and realize the biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) reaction, consisting in the reduction of atmospheric dinitrogen into bioavailable ammonium.
