Cyanobacteria were present on the earth 3.5 billion years ago; since then they have
colonized almost all terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. They produce a high number of …

Cyanobacterial blooms occur when algal densities exceed baseline population
concentrations. Cyanobacteria can produce a large number of secondary metabolites …

Tropical coral reefs harbour a reservoir of enormous biodiversity that is increasingly
threatened by direct human activities and indirect global climate shifts. Emerging coral …

“Super-blooms” of cyanobacteria that produce potent and environmentally persistent
biotoxins (microcystins) are an emerging global health issue in freshwater habitats …

All coral reef organisms are susceptible to diseases, as are terrestrial organisms, but
studying these diseases can be more difficult and much remains to be learned. Although …

A large diversity of cyanobacteria is associated with the production of cyanotoxins. Appendix
2 reports an updated list of cyanobacterial species or genera:(i) producing toxin from …

Microcystins and nodularins are among the most common cyanobacterial toxins. These
potent cyclic peptide hepatotoxins are produced by a large diversity of cyanobacterial …

Coral reefs are the jewels of the tropical oceans. They boast the highest diversity of all
marine ecosystems, aid in the development and protection of other important, productive …

Brazil has a history of blooms and contamination of freshwater systems by cyanobacterial
toxins. The monitoring relevance of toxins from cyanobacteria in reservoirs for public supply …

In order to identify the cyanobacterial species responsible of anatoxin-a (ATX) production in
Lake Garda (Northern Italy), an intensive isolation and culturing of filamentous …
