Abstract Cyanotoxins such as microcystin (MC), cylindrospermopsin, and saxitoxin are secondary metabolites that are rich in nitrogen (N). Most cyanobacteria grow best on reduced inorganic N (ammonium, NH4), but when NH4 is absent, cyanobacteria can activate physiological pathways to process other N forms (e.g., nitrate; NO3).

Application of hydrogen peroxide to the control of eutrophic lake systems in laboratory assays [PDF]
We exposed water samples from a recreational lake dominated by the cyanobacterium Planktothrix agardhii to different concentrations of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). An addition of 0.33 mg·L−1 of H2O2 was the lowest effective dose for the decay of chlorophyll-

Abstract Cyanobacteria are cosmopolitan, important components of biomass with a remarkable ability to synthesize a diverse array of bioactive compounds, some of which may have toxic effects on other organisms and ecosystems. In this study, filamentous cyanobacterial strains isolated predominantly from temperate European freshwaters (Aphanizomenon ...

Responses of yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco Richardson) exposed to dietary cyanobacteria and subsequent recovery [PDF]
A 120-day toxicity experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of dietary cyanobacteria on the growth and liver histopathology of yellow catfish, and subsequent recovery when the fish were free of cyanobacteria.

Microbial diversity within the Elbe Estuary was found to be more strongly governed by seasonal variability, salinity, and discharge than by spatial heterogeneity. Oligohaline regions sustain high diversity, while nutrient and redox conditions drive functional shifts.

Gene‐to‐Population Level Responses to Multiple Stressors on the Rocky Shore
This experiment employs an in situ field experiment on a rocky shore to test how simulated warming and ambient sewage‐associated nutrient pollution independently and interactively affect ecological responses from gene expression to functional‐group dynamics across a summer season.

Evaluating Causal Links Between Chlorophyll a and Environmental Data in the Illinois River (USA)
Chlorophyll a is widely used as a proxy for algal abundance due to its universality among algae and the practicality of measuring it with in situ sensors. In this study, we analyzed high‐frequency chlorophyll a and water quality data from the Illinois River to assess relationships between algal abundance and environmental drivers using both statistical

The accumulation of the cyanobacterial toxin, microcystin, in cherry tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) and bush bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) plants [PDF]
We aimed to develop a high-sensitivity method to detect microcystin toxins in fruit tissue and to determine if irrigation with water containing toxic cyanobacteria may result in accumulation of microcystin toxins in fruit tissue and affect fruit ...
