This review summarizes the present state of knowledge regarding the toxic, bloom-forming
cyanobacterium, Microcystis, with a specific focus on its geographic distribution, toxins …

Harmful cyanobacterial blooms (= cyanoHABs) are an increasing feature of many
waterbodies throughout the world. Many bloom-forming species produce toxins, making …

Annual cyanobacterial blooms dominated by Microcystis have occurred in western Lake Erie
(US/Canada) during summer months since 1995. The production of toxins by bloom-forming …

Water quality is an emergent property of a complex system comprised of interacting
microbial populations and introduced microbial and chemical contaminants. Studies …

Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) degrade freshwater ecosystems globally.
Microcystis aeruginosa often dominates cyanoHABs and produces microcystin (MC), a class …

Although toxic cyanobacterial blooms in western Lake Erie threaten drinking water supplies
and are promoted by nutrient loading, the precise nutrient regime that selects specific …

The use of urea as a nitrogenous fertilizer has increased over the past two decades, with
urea itself being readily detected at high concentrations in many lakes. Urea has been …

Although the enhancement of anammox performance for wastewater treatment due to the
addition of small amount of acetate has been reported, discrepant metabolic responses of …

Microcystins (MCs) constitute a significant threat to human and environmental health, urging
the development of effective removal methods for these toxins. In this review, we explore the …

Climate change is predicted to increase the severity and prevalence of harmful algal blooms
(HABs). In the past twenty years, omics techniques such as genomics, transcriptomics …
