npj Clean Water, 2022 Filamentous cyanobacteria have substantial niche overlap, and the causal mechanism behind their succession remains unclear. This has practical significance since several filamentous genera are the main producers of the musty odorant 2-methylisoborneol ...

Modeling filamentous cyanobacteria reveals the advantages of long and fast trichomes for optimizing light exposure. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Cyanobacteria form a very large and diverse phylum of prokaryotes that perform oxygenic photosynthesis. Many species of cyanobacteria live colonially in long trichomes of hundreds to thousands of cells.

Ecological Indicators, 2021 Globally, the establishment of protected reserves contributes positively to species protection but also presents a real threat of unexpected changes. A few reports showed that progressively increasing the number of roosting and breeding cormorants across

Modeling cyanobacteria life cycle dynamics and historical nitrogen fixation in the Baltic Proper [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2021 Dense blooms of filamentous diazotrophic cyanobacteria are formed every summer in the Baltic Sea. These autotrophic organisms may bypass nitrogen limitation by performing nitrogen fixation, which also governs surrounding organisms by increasing ...

Evolving interactions between diazotrophic cyanobacterium and phage mediate nitrogen release and host competitive ability [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2016 Interactions between nitrogen-fixing (i.e. diazotrophic) cyanobacteria and their viruses, cyanophages, can have large-scale ecosystem effects. These effects are mediated by temporal alterations in nutrient availability in aquatic systems owing to the ...

Selective feeding of bdelloid rotifers in river biofilms. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 In situ pigment contents of biofilm-dwelling bdelloid rotifers of the Garonne River (France) were measured by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and compared with pigment composition of surrounding biofilm microphytobenthic communities.

Septal Junctions in Filamentous Heterocyst-Forming Cyanobacteria [PDF]
Trends in Microbiology, 2016 In the filaments of heterocyst-forming cyanobacteria, septal junctions that traverse the septal peptidoglycan join adjacent cells, allowing intercellular communication. Perforations in the septal peptidoglycan have been observed, and proteins involved in the formation of such perforations and putative protein components of the septal junctions have ...

Antitumor activity of hierridin B, a cyanobacterial secondary metabolite found in both filamentous and unicellular marine strains. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Cyanobacteria are widely recognized as a valuable source of bioactive metabolites. The majority of such compounds have been isolated from so-called complex cyanobacteria, such as filamentous or colonial forms, which usually display a larger number of ...

Temperature-dependent effect of filamentous cyanobacteria on Daphnia magna life history traits
Journal of Limnology, 2011 Filamentous cyanobacteria are unsuitable food for Daphnia due to their poor manageability, poor nutritional value and, in some cases, toxicity. As the strength of harmful effects of cyanobacteria on filter-feeding zooplankton is temperature dependent ...
