Cyanotoxin accumulation and growth patterns of biocrust communities under variable environmental conditions

Cyanotoxin accumulation and growth patterns of biocrust communities under variable environmental conditions

Biocrusts dominate the soil surface in deserts and are composed of diverse microbial communities that provide important ecosystem services. Cyanobacteria in biocrusts produce many secondary metabolites, including the neurotoxins BMAA, AEG, DAB, anatoxin-a(S) (guanitoxin), and the microcystin hepatot...
