Diversity of microcystin genes within a population of the toxic cyanobacterium Microcystis spp. in Lake Wannsee (Berlin, Germany).

Microbial ecology - 1 Jan 2002

Kurmayer Rainer, Dittmann E, Fastner J, Chorus I

Abstract excerpt

In order to find out how many genotypes determine microcystin production of Microcystis spp. in field populations, single colonies (clones) were sampled from Lake Wannsee (Berlin, Germany), characterized morphologically, and subsequently analyzed by PCR for a region within the mcyB gene encoding the activation of one amino acid during microcystin biosynthesis. The different morphospecies varied considerably in...
