Filtering efficiency and feeding mechanisms of Daphnia pulex on Microcystis aeruginosa and Nannochloropsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The filtering and feeding rate of Daphnia pulex from the Old Durham Reservoir, Durham, NH, were measured to determine the feeding efficiency on different concentrations of non-toxic Nannochloropsis (Class Eustigmatophyceae) and toxigenic cyanobacteria ...

Cyanobacteria blooms cannot be controlled by effective microorganisms (EM) from mud- or Bokashi-balls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In controlled experiments, the ability of ‘‘Effective Microorganisms (EM, in the form of mudballs or Bokashi-balls)’’ was tested for clearing waters from cyanobacteria.

Ecological, Functional, and Phylogenetic Determinants of Cyanobacterial Biomineralisation

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 1, February 2026.
Cyanobacteria contribute to the global carbon cycle by biomineralising CO2 into solid carbonates. Unlike photosynthesis, biomineralisation is a less‐understood, multifaceted and adaptive metabolic process with significant global impact. It involves cell wall structures, genetic factors, and metabolic pathways that enable mineral formation and help ...
