摘要

Abstract

Although biomass variations in Microcystis and microcystin have been widely reported

few studies have addressed whether different trophic states of natural lake water affect the spatial-temporal variations in abundances of microcystin-producing Microcystis in a given bloom. In this study

we used a harmful algal bloom in Chaohu Lake

eastern China

as an example to investigate the mutual relationship between different nutrient states and environmental factors

and the impact on Microcystis. Overall

cyanobacteria and Microcystis were more abundant in the middle and western parts of the lake under high nutrients levels

while in the eastern part

nutrient concentrations were low enough to limit biomass

and their fluctuations affected the contents of toxic Microcystis. Moreover

microcystin concentration was correlated positively to nutrient levels and Microcystis biomass during bloom developing in 2013 from June to August. Temporally

the cellular content of total microcystin was lowest when the bloom peaked in intensity. Our results suggest that lake eutrophication not only results in cyanobacterial blooms

but may also increase the proportion of toxic Microcystis species and their cell-bound MCs contents (i.e. microcystin cell quotas) under mild eutrophication. The present investigation provided molecular evidence for the selection of MC-producing and non-MC-producing genotypes. The current study provides new evidence advocating the monitoring of partitions of large lakes when studying cyanobacteria and toxin-contaminated freshwaters

which will be beneficial for both water agencies and water researchers.
