Evaluating Causal Links Between Chlorophyll a and Environmental Data in the Illinois River (USA)
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.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

Ecological and molecular investigations of cyanotoxin production [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2001 Cyanobacteria, broadly classified as oxygenic phototrophs containing chlorophyll- a and accessory pigments, are among the oldest life forms on earth. They may be unicellular, colonial or filamentous, with cell sizes varying from less than 2 μm to 40 μm in diameter. They may live as symbionts with plants and fungi, in the benthos or in the water column.

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Lake eutrophication remains a significant challenge for water‐quality management across the world. Many management strategies focus on reducing nutrient inputs, but other environmental factors can substantially influence the yield of algal biomass for a given level of nutrients.

Cyanotoxins: methods and approaches for their analysis and detection [PDF]
, 2017 Cyanotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by cyanobacteria, a group of photosynthetic prokaryota especially found in freshwater. In favourable conditions (i.e. high nutrient levels, light intensity, water temperature), cyanobacteria can form blooms,

Toxicity at the Edge of Life: A Review on Cyanobacterial Toxins from Extreme Environments
Marine Drugs, 2017 Cyanotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by cyanobacteria, of varied chemical nature and toxic effects. Although cyanobacteria thrive in all kinds of ecosystems on Earth even under very harsh conditions, current knowledge on cyanotoxin distribution
