Microbial diversity, genomics, and phage–host interactions of cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms

mSystems
The occurrence of cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) is related to their physical and chemical environment. However, less is known about their associated microbial interactions and processes.

In Situ Bacterioplankton Growth Partitioning by High‐Resolution Metatranscriptomics

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 4, August 2026.
Bacterial growth and primary production are key ecological indicators, yet often measured in bulk. Using metatranscriptomics, the authors identify FtsZ expression to track dividing cells (A, B). Phylogenetic placement of transcripts (C–E) enables linking growth activity to specific taxa (E, F), potentially bridging bulk measurements with fine‐scale ...

Symbioses between cyanobacterial communities and feather mosses in boreal forests and consequences for dinitrogen fixation [PDF]

, 2013
Feather moss-cyanobacteria associations, although still poorly understood, are recognised as essential for the regulation of nitrogen (N) input into N-limited ecosystems such as boreal forests due to their ability to carry out N2-fixation.

Metagenomics reveals spatial variation in cyanobacterial composition, function, and biosynthetic potential in the Winam Gulf, Lake Victoria, Kenya

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
The Winam Gulf in the Kenyan region of Lake Victoria experiences prolific, year-round cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) which pose threats to human, livestock, and ecosystem health.

Vestigial Plastids in Parasitic Plants: Evolutionary Remnants or Adaptive Innovations?

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 5401-5420, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Throughout the evolutionary history of plants, chloroplasts originating from a cyanobacterial endosymbiosis have undergone remarkable adaptation and specialization, giving rise to a multitude of plastid types. The evolution toward parasitism in plants represents a particularly extreme case of such specialization.

Trophic Diversity in Duckweed: Mixotrophy, More Than the Sum of its Extremes

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 41, 22 July 2026.
In the context of rising DOC in aquatic environments, mixotrophic duckweed may impact carbon cycling by acting as either a carbon sink, as they absorb CO2 through photosynthesis, or a carbon source, as they release CO2 through respiration of absorbed DOC, which depends on DOC concentration, light availability, temperature, and other environmental ...

Identification of Sources of Dissolved Organic Matter Using Multi‐Isotope Approach

CLEAN – Soil, Air, Water, Volume 54, Issue 7, July 2026.
• A precise and multi‐isotope method was developed using solid phase extraction (SPE) and Element Analyzer – Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry (EA‐IRMS) to characterize the dissolved organic matter (DOM). • The DOM extraction and elution methods were standardized for natural waters containing as low as 0.5 mg DOM. • The extraction efficiencies range from
