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)

Evidence for the intense exchange of MazG in marine cyanophages by horizontal gene transfer [PDF]
Background: S-PM2 is a phage capable of infecting strains of unicellular cyanobacteria belonging to the genus Synechococcus. S-PM2, like other myoviruses infecting marine cyanobacteria, encodes a number of bacterial-like genes. Amongst these genes is one

Benthic marine algae on Japanese tsunami marine debris – a morphological documentation of the species. Part 3 - The green algae and cyanobacteria [PDF]
To determine the invasion threat to the NE Pacific of marine algae arriving on Japanese debris from the 2011 Great Tōhoku Earthquake and Tsunami, my colleagues and I identified the algal species on 42 of the most heavily fouled debris items that landed ...

Overgrowth of reef organisms by benthic cyanobacteria in the Colombian Caribbean
Blooms of marine benthic cyanobacteria seem to be recurrent at various reef sites of the Colombian Caribbean. However, their effect on local reef communities has not been assessed.
