This review elucidates the molecular mechanisms of algicidal bacteria, highlighting critical behaviours like chemotaxis, quorum sensing and extracellular vesicle release. It details how these actions disrupt algal cellular integrity, photosynthesis and calcium homeostasis, providing a theoretical foundation for controlling harmful algal blooms ...

Phosphorus is a key element for cellular functions and poses significant challenges for planktonic microbial communities under limited availability. Metagenomics highlighted that heterotrophic bacteria predominantly relied on phosphate scavenging while eukaryotic phytoplankton primarily utilized membrane remodelling to cope with limited phosphorus ...

Harmful algal blooms are commonly thought to be dominated by a single genus, but they are not homogenous communities. Current approaches, both molecular and culture-based, often overlook fine-scale variations in community composition that can influence ...

ABSTRACT We examine phytoplankton development and limitation in the 3‐m deep, well‐mixed water column of hypereutrophic, alkaline Lake Arresø during 50 years of improved sewage treatment that has reduced phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) availability and phytoplankton biomass.

Antimicrobial and Cytotoxic Activities of Biogenic Nanoparticles Produced by Cyanobacteria
The article reviews the green synthesis of biogenic nanoparticles produced by cyanobacteria, highlighting their antimicrobial and cytotoxic properties. These nanoparticles, formed intra‐ or extracellularly, show activity against Gram‐positive and Gram‐negative bacteria as well as fungi and can induce apoptosis in tumor cells.

Catalytic versatility of lipoxygenase from Microcystis aeruginosa
Lipoxygenases (LOXs) catalyze the regio- and enantioselective addition of molecular oxygen to polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), yielding fatty acid hydroperoxides (FAHPs) with significant industrial relevance. Bacterial LOXs are of particular interest due to their broad substrate range and distinct regio- and enantioselectivity profiles.
