Synechococcus Assemblages across the Salinity Gradient in a Salt Wedge Estuary
Synechococcus are the most abundant and widely distributed picocyanobacteria in the ocean. The salt-wedge type of estuary possesses the complete horizontal and vertical gradient of salinity together with other physical and chemical parameters.

Synechococcus elongatus UTEX 2973, the fastest-growing cyanobacterial strain known, optimally grows under extreme high light (HL) intensities of 1,500–2,500 μmol photons m−2 s−1, which is lethal to most other photosynthetic microbes. We leveraged the few

PtrA is required for coordinate regulation of gene expression during phosphate stress in a marine Synechococcus [PDF]
Previous microarray analyses have shown a key role for the two-component system PhoBR (SYNW0947, SYNW0948) in the regulation of P transport and metabolism in the marine cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. WH8102. However, there is some evidence that another

We investigated how the N:P ratio can shape the structure of picophytoplankton and Microcystis, which are abundant and widespread in eutrophic lakes. Unialgal culture and coculture batch experiments were conducted to study the growth and interspecific ...

Virus isolation studies suggest short-term variations in abundance in natural cyanophage populations of the Indian Ocean [PDF]
Cyanophage abundance has been shown to fluctuate over long timescales and with depth, but little is known about how it varies over short timescales. Previous short-term studies have relied on counting total virus numbers and therefore the phages which ...

Evidence for the intense exchange of MazG in marine cyanophages by horizontal gene transfer [PDF]
Background: S-PM2 is a phage capable of infecting strains of unicellular cyanobacteria belonging to the genus Synechococcus. S-PM2, like other myoviruses infecting marine cyanobacteria, encodes a number of bacterial-like genes. Amongst these genes is one

Function and evolution of the psbA gene family in marine Synechococcus: Synechococcus sp. WH7803 as a case study [PDF]
Abstract In cyanobacteria, the D1 protein of photosystem II (PSII) is encoded by the psbA multigene family. In most freshwater strains, a D1:1 isoform of this protein is exchanged for a D1:2 isoform in response to various stresses, thereby altering PSII photochemistry.

Bleaching forces coral’s heterotrophy on diazotrophs and Synechococcus [PDF]
Abstract Coral reefs are threatened by global warming, which disrupts the symbiosis between corals and their photosynthetic symbionts (Symbiodiniaceae), leading to mass coral bleaching. Planktonic diazotrophs or dinitrogen (N2)-fixing prokaryotes are abundant in coral lagoon waters and could be an alternative nutrient source for corals ...
