Road salt pollution shifts urban stormwater ponds toward cyanobacterial dominance
Abstract Urban environments contend with an array of stressors, including salinization by deicing road salts. To advance understanding of how road salt pollution affects aquatic ecosystem functioning, we surveyed primary producers in 50 stormwater ponds in Brampton, Canada.

ABSTRACT Historical quantification of cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cHABs) typically involved labor‐intensive manual cell counting. We developed a novel, cost‐effective, field‐validated system to perform cell counts of six common toxin‐producing cyanobacterial genera within 30 s of upload with 10‐min sample preparation.

Flexibility of Microcystis Overwintering Strategy in Response to Winter Temperatures
Microcystis is one of the most common bloom-forming cyanobacteria in freshwater ecosystems throughout the world. However, the underlying life history mechanism and distinct temporal dynamics (inter- and intra-annual) of Microcystis populations in ...

The accumulation of the cyanobacterial toxin, microcystin, in cherry tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) and bush bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) plants [PDF]
We aimed to develop a high-sensitivity method to detect microcystin toxins in fruit tissue and to determine if irrigation with water containing toxic cyanobacteria may result in accumulation of microcystin toxins in fruit tissue and affect fruit ...

Abstract Curcumin, a natural plant product derived from Curcuma longa, was assessed as a mitigation technique against the toxic bloom‐forming dinoflagellate Karenia brevis in two mesocosm experiments taking place in 2022 and 2024. In these experiments, curcumin was applied at a dosage of 5 mg L−1 to K.

Assessment Method for Leaf Litters Allelopathic Effect on Cyanobacteria [PDF]
A new bioassay technique combining leaf disk and softagar over-layer methods was developed to investigate the allelopathic effect of deciduous leaf litters on the growth of cyanobacteria ( Microcystis aeruginosa Kütz.).

Origins of Replication in Sorangium cellulosum and Microcystis aeruginosa [PDF]
The genome of Sorangium cellulosum has recently been completely sequenced, and it is the largest bacterial genome sequenced so far. In their report, Schneiker et al. (in Complete genome sequence of the myxobacterium Sorangium cellulosum, Nat. Biotechnol., 2007, 25, 1281-1289) concluded that 'In the absence of the GC-skew inversion typically seen at the

Coadaptation shapes ecological interactions in mixotroph‐resource systems
Mixotrophs combining autotrophy and heterotrophy are ubiquitous in aquatic environments and significantly influence ecosystem functioning. Mixotrophs may adapt their nutritional mode in response to selection, becoming more heterotrophic or more autotrophic over time.
