Transcriptional profiles of Microcystis reveal gene expression shifts that promote bloom persistence in in situ mesocosms

ABSTRACT Harmful algal blooms caused by cyanobacteria threaten aquatic ecosystems, the economy, and human health. Previous work has tried to identify the mechanisms that allow blooms to form, focusing on the role of nutrients. However, little is known about how introduced nutrients influence gene ex...
