In this simulation there are nine different species. The Nori Seaweed‚ Black Pine‚ Coral Weed‚ Mussels‚ Acorn Barnacles‚ Gooseneck Barnacles‚ Whelk‚ Chiton‚ and Starfish. The Nori seaweed‚ Black Pine‚ and Coral Weed are all algae‚ which means they live in damp environments and

Surprisingly ‚ only about 30 different types of algae and cyanobacteria have been reported as photobionts A lichen thallus usually consists of layers such as an upper and lower cortex ‚ algal layer ‚ and medulla . The layers differ in thickness and are better developed in some species than in others

Bioinformatics – is the application of computational methods to the storage and analysis of biological data Linkage Map – maps the location of several thousand genetic markers on each chromosome Physical Map – Expresses the distance between genetic markers‚ usually as the number of base pairs along the DNA Metagenomics – DNA from a group of species (a metagenome) is collected from an environmental

Identity of Cyanobacterial Toxins Cyanobacterial toxins are toxins produced by cyanobacteria‚ or blue-green algae. They include neurotoxins (e.g.‚ anatoxins)‚ hepatotoxins (e.g.‚ microcystins)‚ skin irritants and other toxins. Both hepatotoxins and neurotoxins are produced by cyanobacteria commonly found in surface water supplies and therefore appear to be of most relevance to water supplies at present.1-3 However‚ the neurotoxins are relatively unstable and‚ as such‚ are not considered to be as

Mastigias papua‚ most commonly known as the “Golden Medusa” or “lagoon jelly” is one of the many jellyfishes in the class Scyphozoa. This species of jellyfish is unique because they can be found in bays‚ lagoons‚ and harbors‚ but are most commonly found in the South Pacific and Indian Ocean. While in its habitat the jellyfish follows the sun from west to east until it reaches the shadows formed by the shore. Since this type of jellyfish has very little muscular movement by itself‚ it must be carried

Whatever they produce‚ they must treat the water before they discharge. In particular chemical plants‚ they must treat their waste water because if they don’t do that and discharge it to the river‚ sooner or later‚ it will have big problems like the blue algae in the Taihu Lake. People must take lessons from it. When the scale of contamination is too large‚ it will be too expensive and even impossible to make the water clean once you contaminate it. Any individual should be a good police in this sense;

Background Cyanobacteria or blue green algae are renowned for their tolerability and susceptibility even in wide range of environmental conditions‚ a characteristic of many primitive organisms. CNB are believed to be the agents of autotrophic origin of life thus they probably represent the survivors of the earliest photosynthetic plants‚ along with photosynthetic and chemosynthetic
