Social Construction of Cyanobacteria Blooms in Quebec [PDF]
SAGE Open, 2017 Using a political ecology perspective, this research examines the social issues of cyanobacteria. In Québec (Canada), public health officials issue warnings concerning water-related activities and water consumption. An ethnographic study was undertaken with the aim of gaining a better understanding of the attitudes of citizens toward cyanobacteria and ...

Harmful Freshwater Algal Blooms, With an Emphasis on Cyanobacteria [PDF]
The Scientific World JOURNAL, 2001 Suspended algae, or phytoplankton, are the prime source of organic matter supporting food webs in freshwater ecosystems. Phytoplankton productivity is reliant on adequate nutrient supplies; however, increasing rates of nutrient supply, much of it manmade, fuels accelerating primary production or eutrophication.

Seasonal constraints on the burial of organic carbon in the eutrophic Lake Taihu
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 Eutrophication alters the function of lake ecosystems through phytoplankton blooms and is a major contributor to organic carbon (OC) burial in lakes worldwide.

Dark side of cyanobacteria: searching for strategies to control blooms [PDF]
Microbial Biotechnology, 2021 Summary Cyanobacteria are ecologically one of the most prolific groups of photosynthetic prokaryotes in marine and freshwater habitats. They are primary producer microorganisms and are involved in the production of important secondary metabolites, including toxic compounds such as cyanotoxins.

Synechococcus and Other Bloom-Forming Cyanobacteria Exhibit Unique Redox Signatures [PDF]
, 2021 Cyanobacteria form dense blooms that impair water quality. Although the impact of blooms on water quality largely differs depending on the species of cyanobacteria, it is challenging to distinguish cyanobacterial species with conventional sensors due to ...

Insights into the physiology and ecology of the brackish-water-adapted cyanobacterium nodularia spumigena CCY9414 based on a genome-transcriptome analysis [PDF]
, 2013 Nodularia spumigena is a filamentous diazotrophic cyanobacterium that dominates the annual late summer cyanobacterial blooms in the Baltic Sea. But N. spumigena also is common in brackish water bodies worldwide, suggesting special adaptation allowing it ...

Metagenomic analysis of a freshwater toxic cyanobacteria bloom [PDF]
, 2008 High molecular weight (HMW) DNA prepared from a toxic freshwater cyanobacterial bloom sample was used to construct a PCR-generated 75-clone, 16S rRNA gene library and a 2850-clone bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library.
