We have identified an efficient filamentous marine cyanobacterium, Phormidium valderianum BDU 20041, which was adaptive to different concentrations of CO2. In our study, P. valderianum BDU 20041 was grown under ambient (0.04) and elevated (2, 3, 4, 5, 10,

Migration and transformation of dissolved carbon during accumulated cyanobacteria decomposition in shallow eutrophic lakes: a simulated microcosm study [PDF]
The decomposition processes of accumulated cyanobacteria can release large amounts of organic carbon and affect the carbon cycling in shallow eutrophic lakes.

Gregarious cyanobacteria [PDF]
SummaryHuber and collaborators reported in this issue of Environmental Microbiology about freshwater picocyanobacteria that showed phenotypic plasticity in the sense that they appeared as single cells as well as in aggregates. The authors suggested that aggregation might be an inducible defense as a response to the presence of grazers.

Developmental Biology in Cyanobacteria [PDF]
Filamentous, heterocyst-forming cyanobacteria are phototrophic multicellular organisms in which N2-fixing heterocysts and CO2-fixing vegetative cells exchange regulators and nutrients [...]

Toxic Cyanobacteria: A Growing Threat to Water and Air Quality.
The global expansion of harmful cyanobacterial blooms (CyanoHABs) poses an increasing threat to public health. CyanoHABs are characterized by the production of toxic metabolites known as cyanotoxins.

The origin of multicellularity in cyanobacteria [PDF]
Cyanobacteria are one of the oldest and morphologically most diverse prokaryotic phyla on our planet. The early development of an oxygen-containing atmosphere approximately 2.45-2.22 billion years ago is attributed to the photosynthetic activity of cyanobacteria. Furthermore, they are one of the few prokaryotic phyla where multicellularity has evolved.

Cyanobacteria: Review of Current Potentials and Applications
Continual increases in the human population and growing concerns related to the energy crisis, food security, disease outbreaks, global warming, and other environmental issues require a sustainable solution from nature.

Although numerous marine prokaryotes dwelling in the sunlit layer of oceans can exploit solar energy, cyanobacteria are the only ones to perform oxygenic photosynthesis and to produce organic carbon, a critical process that sustains the whole marine trophic web.

Cyanobacteria of the Genus Prochlorothrix† [PDF]
Green cyanobacteria differ from the blue-green cyanobacteria by the possession of a chlorophyll-containing light-harvesting antenna. Three genera of the green cyanobacteria namely Acaryochloris, Prochlorococcus, and Prochloron are unicellular and inhabit marine environments.
