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

Analysis of an inactive cyanobactin biosynthetic gene cluster leads to discovery of new natural products from strains of the genus Microcystis. [PDF]
Cyanobactins are cyclic peptides assembled through the cleavage and modification of short precursor proteins. An inactive cyanobactin gene cluster has been described from the genome Microcystis aeruginosa NIES843.

Biosorption efficacy of living and non-living algal cells of Microcystis aeruginosa to toxic metals
The existence of metallic elements in the aquatic environment is recognized to cause acute destruction to aqueous life. This study depicts the prospective application of cyanobacterial strains of Microcystis aeruginosa as a sorption material of toxic ...

The Toxic Effects of Lindane On Microcystis Aeruginosa And The Influence of pH And DOM Dependent Effects of Lindane On Microcystis Aeruginosa [PDF]
Abstract The toxic effects of Lindane (γ-BHC) on Microcystis aeruginosa were studied under lab culture conditions. Total protein levels, as well as malondialdehyde (MDA) levels and superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzyme activity, in algal cells, were determined after exposure to different concentrations of Lindane. The bioaccumulation of Lindane, as

Effect of fluid motion on colony formation in Microcystis aeruginosa
Microcystis aeruginosa, generally occurring in large colonies under natural conditions, mainly exists as single cells in laboratory cultures. The mechanisms involved in colony formation in Microcystis aeruginosa and their roles in algal blooms remain ...
