Abstract excerpt
In this study, ten cyanobacterial strains assigned to the oscillatorian species Phormidium autumnale have been characterized using a polyphasic approach by comparing phenotypic and molecular characteristics. The phenotypic analysis dealt with cell and filament morphology, ultrastructure, and pigment content. The molecular phylogenetic analyses were based on sequences of the 16S rRNA gene and the adjacent...
