Impact of fish introduction on planktonic food webs in lakes of the Patagonian Plateau (2006, background): “Finally, cyanobacteria may have negative effects on zooplankton and fish assemblages (Laurenmaatta et al., 1995; DeMott, 1999; Wiegand and Pflugmacher, 2005).”
Effect of two species of cyanobacteria as biofertilizers on some metabolic activities, growth, and yield of pea plant (2010, background): “However, cyanobacteria (some species of the genera Microcystis, Nostoc, Oscillatoria ,a ndAnabaena) might be harmful as they can synthesize toxic secondary metabolites such as microcystins (Carmichael 1994; Wiegand and Pflugmacher 2005 ) which can be accumulated in plant tissues and be carried thro”
A review of cyanobacterial odorous and bioactive metabolites: Impacts and management alternatives in aquaculture (2008, background): “Cylindrospermopsin exposure results in the irreversible inhibition of protein synthesis, cellular necrosis, atrophy, DNA fragmentation, and tumor initiation or mutagenesis (Wiegand and Pflugmacher, 2005; van Apledoorn et al., 2007, and references therein).”
Still challenging: the ecological function of the cyanobacterial toxin microcystin – What we know so far (2018, background): “Cyanobacterial toxicity is caused by a variety of secondary metabolites termed cyanotoxins which include a diverse group of organic compounds both from the chemical and toxicological points of view (Wiegand & Pflugmacher, 2005).”
Allelopathic interactions between microcystin-producing and non-microcystin-producing cyanobacteria and green microalgae: implications for microcystins production (2015, background): “Microcystins are very important cyanotoxins that have different negative effects on aquatic organisms including photoautotrophs (Wiegand and Pflugmacher 2005; Babica et al. 2006; Bártova et al. 2011).”
EXPLORING THE NATURAL ROLE OF MICROCYSTINS—A REVIEW OF EFFECTS ON PHOTOAUTOTROPHIC ORGANISMS 1 (2006, background): “Ecotoxicological consequences of MC production and impact on aquatic biota are still under investigation (Wiegand and Pflugmacher 2005, Zurawell et al. 2005).”
Understanding cyanobacteria‐zooplankton interactions in a more eutrophic world (2014, background): “…Cylindrospermopsis, Anabaena, Planktothrix, Aphanizomenon and Nodularia, which dominate the phytoplankton community and disrupt food-web processes due to their high abundance, toxicity and reduced food quality for grazers (Carmichael, 1991; Wiegand & Pflugmacher, 2005; Paerl & Paul, 2012).”
