Abstract

Cyanobacteria are among the most abundant microalgae taxa in freshwater lakes and play crucial role in their ecological dynamics. Cyanobacteria populations can proliferate significantly at elevated nutrient levels potentially leading to harmful blooms. Cyanobacterial biovolume (BV) can be used as a quantitative bioindicator in ecological studies and in monitoring potentially toxic cyanobacterial blooms. This study investigates the cyanobacterial community structure in two natural lakes. It presents a) the composition of cyanobacterial taxa, b) the temporal variations of cyanobacterial BV and c) a comparison between the lakes.
