Cyanobacteria as regulators of methylmercury production in periphyton [PDF]

open access: yesScience of The Total Environment, 2019
Biotic mercury (Hg) methylation appears to depend on factors such as microbial activity and the concentration and bioavailability of Hg2+ to the Hg-methylating organisms. Recently, the presence of cyanobacteria has been linked with high methylmercury (MeHg) concentrations.

Wastewater microorganisms impact microbial diversity and important ecological functions of stream periphyton

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2022
Wastewater treatment plant effluents can impact microbial communities in receiving streams. However, little is known about the role of microorganisms in wastewater as opposed to other wastewater constituents, such as nutrients and micropollutants.

Periphyton biomass and life-form responses to a gradient of discharge in contrasting light and nutrients scenarios in experimental lowland streams.

open access: yesScience of the Total Environment, 2022
Climate-induced changes in precipitation and land-use intensification affect the discharge of streams worldwide, which, together with eutrophication and loss of riparian canopy, can affect periphyton biomass and composition, and therefore, ultimately the

Synthetic periphyton as a model system to understand species dynamics in complex microbial freshwater communities

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2022
Phototrophic biofilms, also known as periphyton, are microbial freshwater communities that drive crucial ecological processes in streams and lakes. Gaining a deep mechanistic understanding of the biological processes occurring in natural periphyton ...

Impact of wastewater on the microbial diversity of periphyton and its tolerance to micropollutants in an engineered flow-through channel system.

open access: yesWater Research, 2021
Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) play an important role in retaining organic matter and nutrients but to a lesser extent micropollutants. Therefore, treated wastewater is recognized as a major source of multiple stressors, including complex mixtures ...

Global mapping of freshwater nutrient enrichment and periphyton growth potential

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Periphyton (viz. algal) growth in many freshwater systems is associated with severe eutrophication that can impair productive and recreational use of water by billions of people.

Denitrification Associated with Periphyton Communities [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1981
Scrapings of decomposing Cladophora sp. mats (periphyton) covering stream bed rocks produced N 2 O when incubated under N 2 plus 15% C 2 H 2 . Denitrification (N 2 O formation) was enhanced by NO

On modeling chronic detachment of periphyton in artificial rough, open channel flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Periphyton communities, which are native to river beds, serve as a functional indicator of river health but remain one of the least-studied communities despite the significant increase in the examination of aquatic microbial communities in recent years ...
