Contribution of tixic cynobacteria to massive deaths of lesser flamingoes at saline-alkaline lakes of Kenya
Krienitz, L.; Ballot, A.; Casper, P.; Codd, G.A.; Kotut, Kiplagat; Metcalf, J.S.; Morrison, L.F.; Pflugmacher, S.; Wiegand, C. (2003) -
Cyanobacterial diversity in the hot spring, pelagic and benthic habitats of a tropical soda lake
Dadheech, Pawan K.; Glockner, G.; Casper, P.; Kotut, Kiplagat; Mazzoni, C.J.; Mbedi, S.; Krienitz, L. (2013-08)Hot springs and saline-alkaline lakes of East Africa are extreme habitats regarding temperature, or salinity and pH, respectively. This study examines whether divergent habitats of Lake Bogoria, Kenya, impacts cyanobacterial ... -
Molecular detection of uncultured cyanobacteria and aminotransferase domains for cyanotoxin production in sediments of different Kenyan lakes
Dadheech, Pawan K.; Krienitz, L.; Kotut, Kiplagat; Ballot, A.; Casper, P. (Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009-04-15)PCR-based denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) analysis of 16S rRNA gene fragments was used to identify the cyanobacterial phylotypes in sediments and plankton of saline–alkaline and freshwater lakes of Kenya. ... -
Phylogenetic relationship and divergence among planktonic strains of Arthrospira (Oscillatoriales, Cyanobacteria) of African, Asian and American origin deduced by 16S–23S ITS and phycocyanin operon sequences
Dadheech, Pawan K.; Ballot, A.; Casper, P.; Kotut, Kiplagat; Novelo, E.; Lemma, B.; Proschold, T.; Krienitz, L. (2010-07)Arthrospira comprises multicellular, cylindrical, usually screwlike coiled trichomes and is cultivated commercially. In this study, 33 new strains of Arthrospira isolated from plankton samples collected in Mexico, East ...
