Periphytic Cyanobacteria in Different Environments from the Upper Paraná River Floodplain, Brazil. Introduction
Periphytic Cyanobacteria in different environments from the upper Paraná river floodplain, Brazil. FONSECA1, I.A. & RODRIGUES2, L. 1,2 Periphyton Ecology, Research Nucleus in Limnology, Ichthyology, and Aquiculture- Nupélia/ PEA/UEM, State University of Maringá, Avenue Colombo, 5790 – 87020-900 Maringá–Pr, Brazil. e-mail: 1 [email protected]; [email protected] ABSTRACT: Periphytic Cyanobacteria in different environments from the upper Paraná river floodplain, Brazil. The periphytic cyanobacteria community from the upper Paraná river floodplain was studied in two hydrological periods during 2001. In total, 137 taxa were registered, organized in 42 genera, 15 families and 4 orders. Of those, 70 taxa were not previously registered for the upper Paraná river floodplain. Despite the anual variability and anthropogenic impacts, the floodplain is characterized by two distinct periods, high and low waters. The environments presenting the largest numbers of taxa, in decreasing order, during the high water period were Pau Véio backwater, Clara lagoon, Cortado channel and Garças lagoon. However, during low waters, these environments were Clara lagoon, Pau Véio backwater, Cortado channel and Garças lagoon. Considering indicator value index species -INDVAL (simple method to find indicator species and species assemblages characterizing groups of samples), five species can be presumed as indicators for hydrological periods (Calothrix brevissima G.S. West, Leptolyngbya perelegans (Lemmermann) Anagnostidis & Komárek, Lyngbya sp., Merismopedia tenuissima Lemmermann and Oscillatoria limosa Agardh ex Gomont) according to the specie’s morphologies.

Synechococcus Salsus Sp. Nov. (Cyanobacteria): a New Unicellular, Coccoid Species from Yuncheng Salt Lake, North China
Bangladesh J. Plant Taxon. 24(2): 137–147, 2017 (December) © 2017 Bangladesh Association of Plant Taxonomists SYNECHOCOCCUS SALSUS SP. NOV. (CYANOBACTERIA): A NEW UNICELLULAR, COCCOID SPECIES FROM YUNCHENG SALT LAKE, NORTH CHINA 1 HONG-RUI LV, JIE WANG, JIA FENG, JUN-PING LV, QI LIU AND SHU-LIAN XIE School of Life Science, Shanxi University, Taiyuan 030006, China Keywords: New species; China; Synechococcus salsus; DNA barcodes; Taxonomy. Abstract A new species of the genus Synechococcus C. Nägeli was described from extreme environment (high salinity) of the Yuncheng salt lake, North China. Morphological characteristics observed by light microscopy (LM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were described. DNA barcodes (16S rRNA+ITS-1, cpcBA-IGS) were used to evaluate its taxonomic status. This species was identified as Synechococcus salsus H. Lv et S. Xie. It is characterized by unicellular, without common mucilage, cells with several dispersed or solitary polyhedral bodies, widely coccoid, sometimes curved or sigmoid, rounded at the ends, thylakoids localized along cells walls. Molecular analyses further support its systematic position as an independent branch. The new species Synechococcus salsus is closely allied to S. elongatus, C. Nägeli, but differs from it by having shorter cell with length 1.0–1.5 times of width. Introduction Synechococcus C. Nägeli (Synechococcaceae, Cyanobacteria) was first discovered in 1849 and is a botanical form-genus comprising rod-shaped to coccoid cyanobacteria with the diameter of 0.6–2.1 µm that divide in one plane. It is a group of ultra-structural photosynthetic prokaryote and has the close genetic relationship with Prochlorococcus (Johnson and Sieburth, 1979), and both of them are the most abundant phytoplankton in the world’s oceans (Huang et al., 2012). -

In Four Shallow and Mesophotic Tropical Reef Sponges from Guam the Microbial Community Largely Depends on Host Identity
In four shallow and mesophotic tropical reef sponges from Guam the microbial community largely depends on host identity Georg Steinert1,2, Michael W. Taylor3, Peter Deines3,4, Rachel L.

While the specificity of the sponge microbiota seems to be closely related to host phylogeny, the environmental factors that could shape differences within local sponge-specific communities remain less understood. On tropical coral reefs, sponge habitats can span from shallow areas to deeper, mesophotic sites. These habitats differ in terms of environmental factors such as light, temperature, and food availability, as well as anthropogenic impact. In order to study the host specificity and potential influence of varying habitats on the sponge microbiota within a local area, four tropical reef sponges, Rhabdastrella -

In Mozambique, where only 50% of the people have access to safe drinking water, this hepatotoxin is not monitored, and consequently, the population may be exposed to MCs. The few studies done in Maputo and Gaza provinces indicated the occurrence of MC-LR, -YR, and -RR at a concentration ranging from 6.83 to 7.78 µg L 1, which are very high, around 7 times · − above than the maximum limit (1 µg L 1) recommended by WHO.

In this study Cyanobacteria species of Mogan Lake, Beytepe Pond and Delice River were taxonomically investigated. The cyanobacteria specimens have been collected by monthly intervals from Mogan Lake and Beytepe Pond between October 2010 and September 2011. For the Delice River the laboratory samples which were collected by montly intervals between July 2007-May 2008 have been evaluated.Totally 15 genus and 41 taxa were identified, 22 species from Mogan lake, 19 species from Beytepe pond and 13 species from Delice river respectively. During the study species like Planktolyngbya limnetica and Aphanocapsa incerta were frequently observed for all months in Mogan Lake, Chrococcus turgidus and Chrococcus minimus were abundant in Beytepe Pond while Kamptonema formosum was dominant in Delice River. As a result species diversity and density were generally rich in Mogan Lake during fall and summer season while very low in the Delice River during winter season. 1. Introduction Cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) are microscopic bacteria found in freshwater lakes, streams, soil and moistened rocks. Even though they are bacteria, cyanobacteria are too small to be seen by the naked eye, they can grow in colonies which are large enough to see. When algae grows too much it can form “blooms”, which can cause various problems. -

Predictive Modeling of Microcystin Concentrations in Drinking Water Treatment Systems of Ohio and their Potential Health Effects Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By: Traven A. Wood, B.S. Graduate Program in Public Health The Ohio State University 2019 Thesis Committee: Mark H. Weir (Adviser) Jiyoung Lee Allison MacKay Copyright by Traven Aldin Wood 2019 Abstract Cyanobacteria present significant public health and engineering challenges due to their expansive growth and potential synthesis of microcystins in surface waters that are used as a drinking water source. Eutrophication of surface waters coupled with favorable climatic conditions can create ideal growth environments for these organisms to develop what is known as a cyanobacterial harmful algal bloom (cHAB). Development of methods to predict the presence and impact of microcystins in drinking water treatment systems is a complex process due to system uncertainties. This research developed two predictive models, first to estimate microcystin concentrations at a water treatment intake, second, to estimate the risks of finished water detections after treatment and resultant health effects to consumers. The first model uses qPCR data to adjust phycocyanin measurements to improve predictive linear regression relationships. Cyanobacterial 16S rRNA and mcy genes provide a quantitative means of measuring and detecting potentially toxic genera/speciess of a cHAB. Phycocyanin is a preferred predictive tool because it can be measured in real-time, but the drawback is that it cannot distinguish between toxic genera/speciess of a bloom. Therefore, it was hypothesized that genus specific ratios using qPCR data could be used to adjust phycocyanin measurements, making them more specific to the proportion of the bloom that is producing toxin.
