چکیده
(New aerophytic morphospecies of Nostoc (Cyanobacteria) from São Paulo State, Brazil). Brazilian aerophytic biotopes are almost completely unknown regarding to cyanobacterial flora. During the study of this special flora, three morphospecies of the genus Nostoc from different habitats in the State of São Paulo, Brazil, were found. Based on their morphology, especially by formation and shape of the akinetes, life cycles and ecology, these populations were considered distinct from all known taxa of Nostoc and are proposed as new species: N. interbryum, N. viride, and N. alatosporum.

True branched nostocalean cyanobacteria from tropical aerophytic habitats and molecular assessment of two species from field samples.
Aerophytic cyanobacteria are commonly found growing on rocks, tree trunks and soil, but the diversity of these organisms is still poorly known. This complex group is very problematic considering the taxonomic arrangement and species circumscription, especially when taking into account tropical populations. In this work, 20 samples of aerophytic cyanobacteria from 15 distinct sampling sites were...

(Planktic Cyanobacteria from São Paulo State, Brazil: Chroococcales). The biodiversity studies of planktic cyanobacteria started in 1997 with intensive collecting in different water bodies of São Paulo State. Due to the problems brougth by eutrophication and cyanobacterial blooms, the samplings were concentrated in reservoirs of Alto Tietê region that supply drinking water to millions of people...

Contamination of plants and waters with nitrate and sodium is an important environmental problem that can affects humans. An experiment was carried out aiming to evaluate the effect of fertilization and irrigation water quality on NO3- and Na+ contents of drained water and lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) plants in Rio Claro, São Paulo State, Brazil. Treatments were distributed in a factorial arrang...
