Transcriptionally active nitrogen fixation and biosynthesis of diverse secondary metabolites by Dolichospermum and Aphanizominom-like Cyanobacteria in western Lake Erie Microcystis blooms
C. E. Yancey, O. Mathiesen, G. J. Dick
This study identifies two near-complete genomes from ADA clade cyanobacteria in Lake Erie blooms, revealing their capacity to produce toxins and fix nitrogen, suggesting they may influence bloom dynamics despite being less abundant.
