Chemotrophic Microbial Mats and Their Potential for Preservation in the Rock Record [PDF]
Putative microbialites are commonly regarded to have formed in association with photosynthetic microorganisms, such as cyanobacteria. However, many modern microbial mat ecosystems are dominated by chemotrophic bacteria and archaea.

A Review Study on Macrolides Isolated from Cyanobacteria
Cyanobacteria are rich sources of structurally-diverse molecules with promising pharmacological activities. Marine cyanobacteria have been proven to be true producers of some significant bioactive metabolites from marine invertebrates.

Temporal variability of diazotroph community composition in the upwelling region off NW Iberia. [PDF]
Knowledge of the ecology of N2-fixing (diazotrophic) plankton is mainly limited to oligotrophic (sub)tropical oceans. However, diazotrophs are widely distributed and active throughout the global ocean.

Aplysiatoxin and its derivatives have been isolated from marine cyanobacteria. The biosynthesis of their characteristic bicyclic skeletons from a linear polyketide intermediate has been proposed.

Virus isolation studies suggest short-term variations in abundance in natural cyanophage populations of the Indian Ocean [PDF]
Cyanophage abundance has been shown to fluctuate over long timescales and with depth, but little is known about how it varies over short timescales. Previous short-term studies have relied on counting total virus numbers and therefore the phages which ...

Diverse diazotrophs are present on sinking particles in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre. [PDF]
Sinking particles transport carbon and nutrients from the surface ocean into the deep sea and are considered hot spots for bacterial diversity and activity.

Symbiosis between a marine alga and a N2-fixing cyanobacterium (Cyanobacterium UCYN-A) is geographically widespread in the oceans and is important in the marine N cycle. UCYN-A is uncultivated and is an unusual unicellular cyanobacterium because it lacks

Biomineralization is a generic term used to indicate biological‐mediated mineral formation. In carbonate mineralization, nucleation of crystals can be: (1) controlled directly by the organisms, like in the skeletal formation of most metazoans; (2) induced by microbial communities, by indirect precipitation mediated by their metabolic activities; or (3)

Reefs are the richest marine ecosystems. Their benthic communities generate structural complexity and participate in nutrient cycles, providing habitat and food for many marine species.
