Abstract excerpt
Cyanobacterial blooms, forming massive scum and various cyanotoxins, increasingly spread in a wide range of freshwater ecosystems. One heavy Microcystis bloom occurred in the entire Qinhuai River basin in 2010 summer for the first time. To determine the Microcystis populations and their spatial distributions along Qinhuai River, a molecular approach was applied by sequencing the DNA library based on the internal...
