Abstract
This review paper considers the features of the biology of cyanobacteria, their role as photosynthetics, nitrogen fixers, and producers of biologically active substances, as well as the distribution of these microorganisms in various marine ecosystems. The symbioses of marine cyanobacteria with a wide range of eukaryotic organisms are discussed.
