Physico-chemical controls on growth and toxicity of Microcystis and Anabaena in water supply reservoirs

This project increased understanding of how cyanobacteria adapt and function in today’s environment. It provided insight to the key factors that contribute to growth of Microcystis and Anabaena in relation to physical conditions of the reservoir and reduced as well as predicted the occurrence and toxicity of blooms by understanding toxin regulation.
