Cyanopeptide Co-Production Dynamics beyond Mirocystins and Effects of Growth Stages and Nutrient Availability
Regiane Natumi, Elisabeth M.‐L. Janssen
Abstract
and only lowering nitrogen decreased cyanopeptide production while the relative abundance of individual cyanopeptides remained stable. The synchronized production of other cyanopeptides along with microcystins emphasizes the need to make them available as reference standards to encourage more studies on their occurrence in blooms, persistence, and potential toxicity.
