Abundance of active and inactive microcystin genotypes in populations of the toxic cyanobacterium Planktothrix spp.

Environmental microbiology - 1 Aug 2004

Kurmayer Rainer, Christiansen Guntram, Fastner Jutta, Börner Thomas

Abstract excerpt

To investigate the abundance of active and inactive microcystin genotypes in populations of the filamentous cyanobacterium Planktothrix spp., individual filaments were grown as clonal strains in the laboratory and analysed for microcystin synthetase (mcy) genes and microcystin. Twenty-three green-pigmented strains of P. agardhii originating mostly from shallow water bodies fell into two groups, those possessing...
