A choanoflagellate (craspedomonad) epiphytic on Microcystis aeruginosa
A. large population of the choanoflagellate, Salpingoeca sp., developed on Microcystis aeruginosa Kütz. emend. Elenkin which had been collected from a hypertrophic lake and maintained for several days in the laboratory. The choanoflagellate appears to be related to, but not identical to, S.

Global Change Likely to Promote the Expansion of the Quagga Mussel (Dreissena bugensis) in Europe
ABSTRACT Aim Invasive aquatic species are a pressing concern for environmental managers due to their significant impacts and high eradication costs. The Ponto‐Caspian region is a notable source of aquatic invasive species, with over 40 invaders currently affecting freshwater ecosystems throughout Europe.

Recruitment of cyanobacteria from the sediments in the eutrophic Shanzi Reservoir [PDF]
This study investigated the impact of four environmental factors on the recruitment of cyanobacteria from bottom sediments in the eutrophic Shanzi Reservoir. Temperature and light were identified as the key determinants for the recruitment of Microcystis

Effects of the cyanobacteria Microcystis aeruginosa on eastern oyster feeding
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,

Phytoplankton periodicity: its motivation, mechanisms and manipulation [PDF]
This review summarizes some recent work to find a generalized explanation of phytoplankton periodicity in lakes. Much of the observational and experimental evidence is drawn from work centred on the large enclosures (Lund Tubes) installed in Blelham Tarn,

Although evidence indicates that viruses are important in the ecology of Microcystis spp., many questions remain. For example, how does Microcystis exist at high, bloom-associated cell concentrations in the presence of viruses that infect it?
