TL;DR: A functional relationship between FV, VR, and Vcell is constructed and it is found that high VR and V cell can promote Microcystis buoyancy, which means that increasing cell compactness or Vcell may be an active regulation strategy for MicrocyStis colonies to promote buoyancy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of different types of extracellular polysaccharides isolated from cyanobacterial blooms on the colony formation of unicellular Microcystis aeruginosa.
TL;DR: The extraction protocol followed for TB-Eps was better than that of MX-EPS for maintaining Ca2+ ions, and thereby maintaining an EPS composition that enables for colony formation, and showed that M. aeruginosa can form colonies using Ca2+.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of Microcystis blooms using enhanced colony formation and buoyancy by controlling extracellular polysaccharides and cation concentrations
TL;DR: The adjustment of extracellular polysaccharides and cationic ion concentrations was effective method to promote the colony formation and enlarge the colony size of wild Microcystis, and the control of Micro Cystis buoyancy by enhancing the colonysize would be one of the options for the suppression of MicroCystis blooms from the viewpoint of cost-effective, low-energy, environmentally-friendly, and non-destructive.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shift of calcium-induced Microcystis aeruginosa colony formation mechanism: From cell adhesion to cell division.
TL;DR: In this article , a shift from cell adhesion to cell division was identified, rather than only cell attachment as previously thought, and the mechanism of colony formation changed from cell attachment to cell separation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Humic acid inhibits colony formation of the cyanobacterium Microcystis at high level of iron.
TL;DR: In this paper, the extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) content and average colony size of Microcystis aeruginosa was investigated with varying concentrations of iron and humic acid.
