The purpose of the project is to begin a germplasm bank, cryopreserved in liquid nitrogen, of freshwater microalgae (phytoplanktonic, but also thycoplanktonic, benthic and sub-aerial which may be cultivated and frozen), in order to maintain the biodiversity of these organisms, along with a database of information on the species. The first step to achieve this intent is to isolate clones t…
Cyanobacteria are photosynthetic prokaryotes that have lived on terrestrial surface for approximately 3.5 billion years. They are found on distinct environments, from continental and marine waters to glaciers and thermal springs. Besides, they are widely distributed in terrestrial habitats, on surface of rocks, woods, soils and other substrates. Due to their wide distribution and photosyn…
Ultraviolet radiation (UV) (<400 nm in wavelength) is very harmful to living organisms, due to the ionizing power that affects DNA and produces reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, many organisms can produce shields to protect themselves against UV, and cyanobacteria are some of them. They have lived on Earth since before the Ozone layer formation, that is, they have had very long time…
Lately, several studies have confirmed the heterogeneity of the genus Phormidium, and some genera (Phormidesmis, Wilmottia, Oxynema) have been separated from this polyphyletic generic unit by polyphasic analysis. Accordingly, our objective is to carry out the molecular analysis of the Phormidium tropical strains based on sequences of the 16S rRNA gene and the 16S - 23S rRNA internal trans…
