Effects of the cultivable bacteria attached to Microcystis colonies on the colony size and growth of Microcystis

Journal of Freshwater Ecology, 2019
The interactions between bacteria and algae may play a significant part in the formation and development of algal blooms. The bloom-forming cyanobacterium Microcystis occurs mainly as colonial form in natural waters, and thus it is necessary to study the

Higher resistance of a microcystin (MC)-producing cyanobacterium, Microcystis, to the submerged macrophyte Myriophyllum spicatum

, 2023
Outbreaks of Microcystis blooms can affect growth of submerged plants, which in turn can inhibit cyanobacterial growth. Microcystin (MC)-producing and non-MC-producing Microcystis strains typically coexist in Microcystis-dominated blooms.

Coordinated Diel Gene Expression of Cyanobacteria and Their Microbiome

Microorganisms, 2021
Diel rhythms have been well recognized in cyanobacterial metabolisms. However, whether this programmed activity of cyanobacteria could elicit coordinated diel gene expressions in microorganisms (microbiome) that co-occur with cyanobacteria and how such ...

N:P ratio influences the competition of Microcystis with its picophytoplankton counterparts, Mychonastes and Synechococcus, under nutrient enrichment conditions

Journal of Freshwater Ecology, 2019
We investigated how the N:P ratio can shape the structure of picophytoplankton and Microcystis, which are abundant and widespread in eutrophic lakes. Unialgal culture and coculture batch experiments were conducted to study the growth and interspecific ...

Covariance of Phytoplankton, Bacteria, and Zooplankton Communities Within Microcystis Blooms in San Francisco Estuary

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Microcystis blooms have occurred in upper San Francisco Estuary (USFE) since 1999, but their potential impacts on plankton communities have not been fully quantified.

Genome sequences of lower Great Lakes Microcystis sp. reveal strain-specific genes that are present and expressed in western Lake Erie blooms.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Blooms of the potentially toxic cyanobacterium Microcystis are increasing worldwide. In the Laurentian Great Lakes they pose major socioeconomic, ecological, and human health threats, particularly in western Lake Erie.

Use of a generalized additive model to investigate key abiotic factors affecting microcystin cellular quotas in heavy bloom areas of Lake Taihu. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Lake Taihu is the third largest freshwater lake in China and is suffering from serious cyanobacterial blooms with the associated drinking water contamination by microcystin (MC) for millions of citizens.

Enhanced Microbial Interactions and Deterministic Successions During Anoxic Decomposition of Microcystis Biomass in Lake Sediment

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Microcystis biomass remineralization after blooming represents a hotspot of nutrient recycling in eutrophic lakes. Because Microcystis blooms are massively deposited on lake sediments, resulting in anoxic conditions, it is important to understand the ...

Response of Microcystis to copper stress - Do phenotypes of Microcystis make a difference in stress tolerance?

, 2007
To elucidate the role of phenotype in stress-tolerant bloom-forming cyanobacterium Microcystis, two phenotypes of M. aeruginosa-unicellular and colonial strains were selected to investigate how they responded to copper stress.
