CYANOBACTERIA Cyanobacteria, a group of Gram-negative photoautotrophic prokar- yotes, are capable of performing oxygenic photosynthesis. This unique class of microorganisms has many names, like cyanoprokaryotes, cyano- phytes and blue–green bacteria. These names are derived because of the presence of...
Cyanobacteria are photosynthetic Gram-negative bacteria that carry out oxygenic photosynthesis and are thought to be the origin of chloroplasts of plants and eukaryotic algae via endosymbiotic events in the late Proterozoic or early Cambrian period. Cyanobacteria occupy a wide array of terrestrial, marine...

The key difference between cyanobacteria and algae is that cyanobacteria are a group of prokaryotic bacteria while algae are small eukaryotic plant-like or
A domain of a signal transduction protein with the capacity to elicit a molecular or cellular response. In photoreceptors, its function may be modulated by the photosensory module. MCP domain A membrane-spanning sensory molecule in bacteria first identified as a chemical sensor that transmits its ...
Fortunately, most studies found that phytoplankton species exhibit variable sensitivities to macrophyte allelochemicals, with cyanobacteria as the most sensitive group, while green algae are known to be less sensitive (Mulderij et al., 2007, Hilt and Gross, 2008). Besides the control of growth of ...

Methods Cyanobacteria growth conditions Due to its secondary metabolite complexity and the presence of exopolysaccharides, Nostoc punctiforme was selected as target for RNA extraction. ...
