Cyanobacteria stand out among phytoplankton when they form massive blooms and produce toxins. Because cyanotoxin genes date to the origin of metazoans, the hypothesis that cyanotoxins function as a defense against herbivory is still debated.

Maximize Growth and Productivity of Rice by Using N2-Fixing Anabaena oryzae and Spirulina platensis Extract [PDF]
This study highlights the role of both inoculation with N2-Fixing cyanobacterium Anabaena oryzae and spraying with cyanobacterium Spirulina platensis extract and their combinations on growth and productivity of the two rice varieties (Sakha108 and ...

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 ...

Aquatic and terrestrial cyanobacteria produce methane
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 ...
