Abstract excerpt
Genetic diversity and differential microcystin contributions within the populations of toxic Microcystis in freshwater ecosystems have not been fully discussed. To illustrate this issue, we sequenced clone libraries of the first adenylation domain of mcyB (mcyBA1) from Microcystis populations in a plateau lake. Phylogenetic analysis revealed two divergent groups of McyBA1 with two closely related subgroups within...
