Patterns of microbial diversity on elevational gradients have been extensively studied, but little is known about those patterns during the restoration earthquake-fractured alpine ecosystems. In this study, soil properties, enzyme activities, abundance and bacterial fungal communities at four positions along a 2.6-km gradient in Snow Treasure Summit National Nature Reserve, located Pingwu County, Southwest China. Although there were no significant changes chemical environment, significantly different elevations. The overall community presented an N-shaped pattern with increasing elevation, while decreased elevation. Changes associated phosphorus, plant litter, variations dominant taxa.

Interactions between bacteria and phytoplankton can influence primary production, community composition, algal bloom development. However, these interactions are poorly described for many consortia, particularly freshwater bloom-forming cyanobacteria. Here, we assessed the gene content expression of two uncultivated Acidobacteria from Lake Erie Microcystis blooms. These organisms were targeted because they previously identified as important catalase producers in blooms, suggesting that protect H2O2. Metatranscriptomics revealed both transcribed genes uptake organic compounds known cyanobacterial products exudates, including lactate, glycolate, amino acids, peptides, cobalamins.

Interactions between bacteria and phytoplankton in the phycosphere facilitate constrain biogeochemical cycling aquatic ecosystems. Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) is a bacterially produced chemical signal that promotes growth of plants. Here, we explored impact IAA on bloom-forming cyanobacteria their associated bacteria.

Metatranscriptome analysis revealed induction an antioxidant Microcystis upon exposure IAA, potentially allowing populations increase photosynthetic rate overcome internally generated reactive oxygen.

Rising atmospheric CO2 can intensify harmful cyanobacterial blooms in eutrophic lakes. Worldwide, these are an increasing environmental concern. Low concentrations of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) have been proposed as a short-term but eco-friendly approach to selectively mitigate blooms. However, sensitivity cyanobacteria H2O2 vary depending on the available resources. To find out how respond under elevated CO2, Microcystis aeruginosa PCC 7806 was cultured chemostats with nutrient-replete medium C-limiting and C-replete conditions (150 ppm 1500 respectively). exposed high showed higher cell densities, biovolumes, microcystin contents, lower photosynthetic efficiency pH compared cultures grown low CO2.

Microcystis spp. produce diverse secondary metabolites within freshwater cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) around the world. In addition to biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) encoding known compounds, genomes harbor numerous BGCs of unknown function, indicating a poorly understood chemical repertoire. While recent studies show that produces several in lab and field, little work has focused on analyzing abundance expression its broader suite during cyanoHAB events.

Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) occur in fresh water globally. These can degrade quality and produce toxins, resulting ecological economic damages. Thus, short-term management methods (i.e., algaecides) are necessary to rapidly mitigate the negative impacts of cyanoHABs. In this study, we assess efficacy a hydrogen peroxide-based algaecide (PAK
