Microcystin production and regulation under nutrient stress conditions in toxic microcystis strains.
Microcystin is a common and well-known cyanobacterial toxin whose intracellular role is still under investigation. Increasing knowledge on microcystin gene expression and regulation can contribute to the understanding of its putative cellular function. In this work, reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) was used to investigate the transcriptional response of the mcyD gene to nitrogen...
متن کاملFish extinctions alter nutrient recycling in tropical freshwaters.
There is increasing evidence that species extinctions jeopardize the functioning of ecosystems. Overfishing and other human influences are reducing the diversity and abundance of fish worldwide, but the ecosystem-level consequences of these changes have not been assessed quantitatively. Recycling of nutrients is one important ecosystem process that is directly influenced by fish. Fish species v...
متن کاملNutrient loading and meteorological conditions explain interannual variability of hypoxia in Chesapeake Bay
We use geostatistical universal kriging and conditional realizations to provide the first quantitative estimates, with robust estimates of uncertainties, of the seasonal and interannual variability in hypoxic volume in Chesapeake Bay, covering early April to late October for 1985 to 2010, and explore factors controlling that variability. Results show that the time when the hypoxic volume reache...
متن کاملInfluence of temperature, mixing, and addition of microcystin‐LR on microcystin gene expression in Microcystis aeruginosa
Cyanobacteria, such as the toxin producer Microcystis aeruginosa, are predicted to be favored by global warming both directly, through elevated water temperatures, and indirectly, through factors such as prolonged stratification of waterbodies. M. aeruginosa is able to produce the hepatotoxin microcystin, which causes great concern in freshwater management worldwide. However, little is known ab...
