    • Phylogenetic and morphological diversity of culturable cyanobacteria from Lake Magadi in Kenya 

      Ngetha, Edwin; Akhwale, Julia Khayeli; Mwirichia, Romano K. (2019-10)
      Lake Magadi is an alkaline saline Lake in Kenya, which lies on the Great Eastern Rift valley. Although the lake is characterized by extremes of salt, pH and temperature, it supports diverse groups of cyanobacteria. In ...

    • Picocystis salinarum (Chlorophyta) in saline lakes and hot springs of East Africa. 

      Krienitz, L.; Bock, Christina; Kotut, Kiplagat; Luo, Wei (2012-01)
      The occurrence of Picocystis salinarum in saline inland waters of East Africa was investigated using a polyphasic approach of small-subunit (SSU) rDNA phylogeny and light microscope observations. Recent studies have found ...
