2016 review

The dual role of nitrogen supply in controlling the growth and toxicity of cyanobacterial blooms

[Review of ]. HARMFUL ALGAE, 54, 87–97.

By: C. Gobler*, J. Burkholder n, T. Davis*, M. Harke*, T. Johengen*, C. Stow*, D. Waal*

co-author countries: Netherlands 🇳🇱
author keywords: Nitrogen; Phosphorus; Cyanobacteria; Microcystis; Diazotrophy; Nutrients
MeSH headings : Cyanobacteria / metabolism; Cyanobacteria / physiology; Fresh Water / chemistry; Fresh Water / microbiology; Microcystins / metabolism; Microcystins / toxicity; Nitrogen / metabolism; Phosphorus / metabolism
topics (OpenAlex): Aquatic Ecosystems and Phytoplankton Dynamics; Biocrusts and Microbial Ecology; Algal biology and biofuel production
TL;DR: Multi-year observations from western Lake Erie are presented demonstrating that microcystin concentrations peak in parallel with inorganic N, but not orthophosphate, concentrations and are significantly lower during years of reduced inorganic nitrogen loading and concentrations, which supports the premise that management actions to reduce P in the absence of concurrent restrictions on N loading may not effectively control the growth and/or toxicity of non-diazotrophic toxic cyanobacteria.
