Human and ecological health depends on the vitality of freshwater systems, but these are
increasingly threatened by cyanotoxins released from harmful algal blooms (HABs). Periodic …

Cyanobacteria are ecologically one of the most prolific groups of phototrophic prokaryotes in
both marine and freshwater habitats. Both the beneficial and detrimental aspects of …

The widespread distribution of cyanobacteria in the aquatic environment is increasing the
risk of water pollution caused by cyanotoxins, which poses a serious threat to human health …

Many countries have attempted to monitor and predict harmful algal blooms to mitigate
related problems and establish management practices. The current alert system-based …

Microcystis is a cyanobacterium that forms toxic blooms in freshwater ecosystems around
the world. Biological variation among taxa within the genus is apparent through genetic and …

The monocyclic heptapeptides microcystins (MCs), are a group of hepatotoxins, produced
worldwide by some bloom-forming cyanobacterial species/strains both in marine and …

The mechanisms regulating toxin release by cyanobacteria are poorly understood despite
the threat cyanotoxins pose to water quality and human health globally. To determine the …

Understanding the dynamics of harmful algal blooms is important to protect the aquatic
ecosystem in regulated rivers and secure human health. In this study, artificial neural …

The excessive proliferation of Microcystis aeruginosa can lead to ecological damage,
economic losses, and threaten animal and human health. For controlling Microcystis …

With increased global warming, cyanobacteria are blooming more frequently in lakes and
reservoirs, severely damaging the health and stability of aquatic ecosystems and …
