Environmental conditions that influence toxin biosynthesis in cyanobacteria [PDF]
Environmental Microbiology, 2012 Summary Over the past 15 years, the genetic basis for production of many cyanobacterial bioactive compounds has been described. This knowledge has enabled investigations into the environmental factors that regulate the production of these toxins at the molecular level.

Cyanotoxins: Bioaccumulation and Effects on Aquatic Animals
Marine Drugs, 2011 Cyanobacteria are photosynthetic prokaryotes with wide geographic distribution that can produce secondary metabolites named cyanotoxins. These toxins can be classified into three main types according to their mechanism of action in vertebrates ...
