“Since the 1950s antibiotics have been used in agriculture to treat bacterial diseases of plants, in both controlled conditions (e.g.,greenhouses) and spraying in the field. Surprisingly, these antibiotics are the same that we use to treat human diseases,” said Martins...
Photosynthetic organisms such as cyanobacteria have been shown to exhibit complex transcriptional remodeling with respect to diurnal variation of light availability [1-3]. However, the reported estimates of the number of oscillating transcripts differ strongly between studies and range between 9-80% of ...
Revisionary concepts of species in the Cyanobacteria and their applications This paper discusses the various concepts of species and genus and also suggests future usage of these two terms. Cyanobacterial taxonomy must hereafter ut... RW Castenholz,TB Norris - 《Algological Studies》 被引量: 29...
In some cyanobacteria, many nucleoids may accumulate in an enlarged round cell or along a filament, leading to the generation of many new cells at once. The new cells often split from the parent filament and float away in a process called fragmentation (Figure 15). Fragmentation is commonly ...
food through photosynthesis. They are similar to higher plants, but they lack many of the distinct organs that you will find in a higher plant. The higher plants are believed to have evolved from algae, and algae are believed to have gotten their capacity for photosynthesis from cyanobacteria....
Controlling the spread of cyanobacteria has become a pressing global challenge. Especially for lakes/reservoirs and larger ponds. Common methods to prevent algal blooms include aeration, chemical/biological additives, or ultrasonic technology. Although there are plenty of treatment solutions on the market...

Prokaryotes Microalgae Cyanobacteria, sometimes called blue–green algae, are prokaryotes devoid of assembled flagella. They swim directly toward light sources (phototaxis), respond to other environmental signals, and produce oxygen by photosynthesis.51 Thus, they are natural microswimmers that can be ...
A collaboration between the Benning and Kramer labs is revealing how nature's solar panels, found inside algae, constantly grow and shrink in size to adjust to changes in their environments, a crucial system that ensures their hosts stay healthy and aliv
As it's turned out, over time organisms have been able to modify this planet, not only in the atmosphere itself, but also all the way down into the mantle. Cyanobacteria are the culprits involved here; these are the organisms that caused the demise of the original inhabitants of this plan...
