New Findings Reported from National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) Describe Advances in Cyanobacteria (Experimental Studies on Zooplankton-Toxic Cyanobacteria Interactions: A Review)

2023 MAR 07 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at NewsRx Life Science Daily -- Investigators publish new report on cyanobacteria. According to

Review Description

Cyanobacterial blooms have been recognized as a problem in fresh water for about 150 years. Over the past 50 years, experimental studies on the subject have gained importance considering the increasing need to control toxic cyanobacterial blooms. This article presents information on the different lines of research that have been undertaken on zooplankton–cyanobacteria interactions over the past 50 years. These include information on filtering/ingestion rates and phytoplankton preferences of small and large rotifers, cladocerans, and copepods; growth rates of zooplankton on cyanobacterial diets; feeding rates of other freshwater invertebrates on cyanobacteria; role of zooplankton in top-down biomanipulation efforts; effect of cyanotoxins on zooplankton; bioaccumulation of cyanotoxins; and physical and chemical control of cyanobacterial blooms. We also highlight measures that have led to successful lake management and improvement of water quality in selected waterbodies.
