Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.We examined microbiome variability in seven macroalgal species over 5 days at an intertidal bench in 'Ewa Beach, O'ahu, Hawai'i. Microbial communities of some red and brown algae fluctuated, whilst green algae remained stable. Temporal patterns varied by species and potentially by differences in intertidal positioning and exposure to environmental ...

Risk assessment of the production of seaweed in the Netherlands; food safety and nature
Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 4, Issue 2, April 2026.Abstract Seaweed is seen as an important source of alternative proteins for a sustainable food system and food security. The cultivation of seaweed is therefore encouraged by the European Union (EU) and also by the Dutch government.In the Netherlands, seaweed is farmed on small scale in the Southwest Delta, the Wadden Sea and the North Sea. Despite the

Occurrence of the cyanobacterial toxin cylindrospermopsin in northeast Germany [PDF]
Environmental Toxicology, 2007 AbstractThe frequent occurrence of the cyanobacterial toxin cylindrospermopsin (CYN) in the (sub)tropics has been largely associated with cyanobacteria of the order Nostocales of tropical origin, in particular Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii. C. raciborskii is currently observed to spread northwards into temperate climatic zones.

Algal Blooms in Lakes Increase After Wildfire Smoke Events in the Contiguous United States
Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 1, March 2026.Temporary pulses of surface chlorophyll‐a are identified following wildfire smoke events in lakes and reservoirs across the United States. ABSTRACT Area burned by wildfire has increased in the contiguous United States and in many places globally in recent years, impacting communities and ecosystems nearby and even far downwind of fires. We examined the

Characterization of the Gene Cluster Responsible for Cylindrospermopsin Biosynthesis [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2008 ABSTRACTToxic cyanobacterial blooms cause economic losses and pose significant public health threats on a global scale. Characterization of the gene cluster for the biosynthesis of the cyanobacterial toxin cylindrospermopsin (cyr) inCylindrospermopsis raciborskiiAWT205 is described, and the complete biosynthetic pathway is proposed.

Ecohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 1, January‐February 2026.ABSTRACT The increasing demand for freshwater, in combination with climate change and pollution, compromises the quality and quantity of water resources. These pressures have intensified cyanobacterial blooms, including toxic events that threaten human health and aquatic ecosystems. This study complements the objectives of the Water Framework Directive

Journal of Phycology, Volume 61, Issue 6, Page 1738-1752, December 2025.Abstract Raphidiopsis raciborskii is a diazotrophic cyanobacterium, globally distributed in aquatic environments and known for forming toxic blooms, thereby affecting ecosystem services. South American strains are producers of saxitoxins, potent neurotoxins harmful to humans and animals.

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 11, Page 3506-3519, November 2025.Abstract Cyanobacteria blooms are a leading threat to water quality globally. Despite this, the timing and frequency of toxin production associated with harmful blooms are not well understood. Here we explore cyanobacteria bloom dynamics and cyanotoxin production in two heavily instrumented shallow, eutrophic bays of Lake Champlain through the lens of ...

Effects of the cyanobacteria Microcystis aeruginosa on eastern oyster feeding
Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2025.Abstract The eastern oyster, Crassostrea virginica, is an estuarine consumer of considerable ecological and economic value, with the ability to selectively feed from a mixed phytoplankton community. Estuarine phytoplankton communities are experiencing an increased presence of small, nutritionally poor, salt‐tolerant, and potentially toxic cyanobacteria,

Effects of Seasonal Dynamics on Cyanobacteria Proliferation in Aquaculture Fish Ponds
Aquaculture Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Aquaculture production supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), especially SDG 2 (Zero Hunger), by enhancing food security and sustainable practices. This study investigated the seasonal dynamics of cyanobacterial (CB) blooms in aquaculture fishponds in South Africa (SA) and Nigeria (NGA). Water samples were collected twice per
