Development and field assessment of a quantitative PCR for the detection and enumeration of the noxious bloom-former Anabaena planktonica [PDF]
Anabaena planktonica is a harmful, bloom-forming freshwater cyanobacterium, which has arrived recently in New Zealand. In the short time since its incursion (

γ-Lindane Increases Microcystin Synthesis in Microcystis aeruginosa PCC7806
HCH factories, and the waste dumpsites associated to its production, have become a global environmental concern, and their runoff could pollute ground and surface waters with high levels of the pollutant. In this study, the influence of lindane (γ-HCH) on microcystin production has been investigated in Microcystis aeruginosa PCC7806.

Nitric oxide supersaturation in the surface waters of the oligotrophic Atlantic Ocean
Abstract Atmospheric nitric oxide (NO) is a pollutant and climate‐relevant trace gas. Dissolved NO accumulates in the surface ocean and therefore the ocean is a natural source of atmospheric NO. It is generally assumed that NO in the surface ocean is produced photochemically from nitrite (NO2−).

Microcystins in components of twelve New Hampshire lakes of varied trophic status [PDF]
Cyanobacteria toxins, called microcystins (MCs), were found in components of twelve, stratified New Hampshire (USA) lakes of varied trophic status during the summer of 1998.

Abstract Interactions between aquatic organisms and contaminants in under‐ice lake environments are poorly characterized relative to ice‐free seasons. Here, we compared under‐ice arsenic biogeochemical processes and plankton community composition in four subarctic lakes spanning an arsenic contamination gradient.

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 ...

Do Cyanobacteria Blooms Enhance Parasite Loads in Lake Erie Yellow Perch? [PDF]
Harmful Algal Blooms composed of cyanobacteria (HABs) are a major concern globally, especially in ecosystems that support commercial and recreational fisheries. Although HABs have been shown to negatively affect the services provided by ecosystems (e.g.,

ABSTRACT The Nannochloropsis oceanica microalgae contain a high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids, amino acids, and proteins, which are essential in diets intended for the cultivation of mollusks, crustaceans, and fish to ensure good larval growth and better survival.
