While previous studies had identified microcystis as the dominant cyanobacteria in the Winam Gulf region, researchers discovered that dolichospermum is the most abundant type during major bloom events ...

Previous studies have indicated that the bloom-forming cyanobacteria Microcystis spp. overwinters near the sediment surface and does not actively grow below 15°C. However, satellite images and field ...

Commonly known as red tides, brown tides and green tides, blue-green algae or cyanobacteria, like Microcystis, are considered harmful algal blooms and can have severe impacts on human health ...

“Lake Okeechobee, the Caloosahatchee River and many waters in Calusa Waterkeeper’s work area have experienced microcystis blooms of increasing scope and severity,” said Codty Pierce, Calusa ...

Microcystins have been characterized from planktonic Anabaena, Microcystis, Oscillatoria (Planktothrix ... About 60 structural variants of microcystins have been characterized so far from bloom ...

The study revealed that Dolichospermum was the dominant bloom-forming cyanobacteria in Winam Gulf, often accompanied by Microcystis, which produces the liver-damaging toxin microcystin.

The dominating genera Aphanizomenon, Anabaena, and Microcystis achieved the highest biomass in cases ... the incidence of cyanobacteria blooms will certainly increase in many lakes under future ...
