• Enhanced poly‐β‐hydroxybutyrate accumulation in a unicellular cyanobacterium, Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 (2007, background): “The highest accumulation in cyanobacteria reported so far is 55% (dcw) in Synechococcus sp. MA19 under phosphate-limited condition (Nishioka et al. 2001).”
• Production and characterization of poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) polymer from Aulosira fertilissima (2011, background): “A major breakthrough in cyanobacterial PHAs research was, however, obtained by Miyake and his group with a thermophilic cyanobacterium, Synechococcus MA19, isolated from the surface of a wet volcanic rock in Japan, reported to accumulate PHB up to 55% (dcw; Nishioka et al. 2001).”
