Insights on the taxonomy and ecogenomics of the Synechococcus collective [PDF]

, 2020
ABSTRACT The genus Synechococcus (also named Synechococcus collective, SC) is a major contributor to global primary productivity. It is found in a wide range of aquatic ecosystems. Synechococcus is metabolically

Lifestyle Evolution in Cyanobacterial Symbionts of Sponges

mBio, 2015
The “Candidatus Synechococcus spongiarum” group includes different clades of cyanobacteria with high 16S rRNA sequence identity (~99%) and is the most abundant and widespread cyanobacterial symbiont of marine sponges.

Spontaneous deletion of an "ORFanage" region facilitates host adaptation in a "photosynthetic" cyanophage [PDF]

, 2015
Viruses have been suggested to be the largest source of genetic diversity on Earth. Genome sequencing and metagenomic surveys reveal that novel genes with unknown functions are abundant in viral genomes.

Spheroplasts of Synechococcus PCC 6301 [PDF]

Microbiology, 1984
SUMMARY: Of a number of osmotic stabilizers tested, 0.5 M-L-proline was the most suitable for the formation of spheroplasts of Synechococcus PCC 6301 with minimal loss of viability. However, even this stabilizer inhibited colony formation.

Recent advances in engineering fast-growing cyanobacterial species for enhanced CO2 fixation

Frontiers in Climate
Atmospheric CO2 removal (CDR) is a fundamentally endergonic process. Performing CDR or Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) at the gigatonne scale will produce a significant additional burden on the planet’s limited renewable energy ...

Adjustments to Photosystem Stoichiometry and Electron Transfer Proteins Are Key to the Remarkably Fast Growth of the Cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus UTEX 2973

mBio, 2018
At the genome level, Synechococcus elongatus UTEX 2973 (Synechococcus 2973) is nearly identical to the model cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 (Synechococcus 7942) with only 55 single nucleotide differences separating the two strains ...

Intensive DNA Replication and Metabolism during the Lag Phase in Cyanobacteria. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Unlike bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis, several species of freshwater cyanobacteria are known to contain multiple chromosomal copies per cell, at all stages of their cell cycle.

Long term seasonal dynamics of Synechococcus population structure in the Gulf of Aqaba, Northern Red Sea

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2011
Spatial patterns of marine Synechococcus diversity across ocean domains have been reported on extensively. However, much less is known of seasonal and multiannual patterns of change in Synechococcus community composition.

Photophysiological and photosynthetic complex changes during iron starvation in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 and Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942

, 2013
Iron is an essential component in many protein complexes involved in photosynthesis, but environmental iron availability is often low as oxidized forms of iron are insoluble in water.

Synechococcus nitrogen gene loss in iron-limited ocean regions [PDF]

, 2023
Synechococcus are the most abundant cyanobacteria in high latitude regions and are responsible for an estimated 17% of annual marine net primary productivity.
