Characteristics of Anabaena variabilis influencing plaque formation by cyanophage N-1

Bioenergetics Studies of the Cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis

A cell-free system exhibiting both photophosphorylation (P /2e = 1) and oxidative phosphoryla­ tion (P/O up to 0 .8 ) is described for the cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis. NADH and N A D PH were found to be equally effective as electron donors for oxidative phosphorylation. Low concentrations of U H D B T , an inhibitor of the cytochrome blc complex of mitochondria and chloroplasts. were fou...

Characterization of factors influencing the growth of Anabaena variabilis in a bubble column reactor.

The combined effect of superficial gas velocity, pH, initial phosphate concentration, and light intensity on cell growth was investigated for the mass production of cyanobacterial cells. The light intensity was manipulated to maintain a specific irradiation rate (q(i)) at a constant level for high cell density culture. The optimum condition for the batch culture was achieved at a superficial ga...

Antifungal Activity of Anabaena Variabilis against Plant Pathogens

Cyanobacterial secondary metabolites have a diverse antagonistic activity that lead to disintegration of microbial growth. The study was conducted to evaluate the antifungal property possessed by cyanobacteriaAnabaena variabilis in retarding the growth of plant pathogenic fungal species. It was observed that the extracts prepared from Anabaena variabilis were capable of diminishing the growth a...
