Abstract Cyanobacteria are phototrophic organisms with great ecological and economical importance.
Species of the genus Microcystis are known for their potential ability to synthesize toxins, notably microcystins.
There is a growing interest in the evaluation of oxidative stress in relation to the impact of global climate change
on natural ecosystems in different trophic levels. Several studies have focused on the analysis of organismal
responses to mitigate the damage by controlling the generation of reactive oxygen species. Variations in environmental factors caused by climate change generate a situation of oxidative damage in Microcystis aeruginosa as a
direct or indirect consequence. In this… More >
