Inside, they placed a colony of a type of cyanobacteria called Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 – commonly known as “blue-green algae” – which produce oxygen through photosynthesis when exposed ...

Cyanobacteria can appear as a bright green film that looks like "paint" in the water. It may contain small white specs might look like an oil slick, green specks or a pea-green layer on surface.

A colorful colony of photosynthetic cyanobacteria, known as blue-green algae, have successfully powered a computer microprocessor for longer than six months, according to a study published ...

That was a difficult feat—for simple-looking organisms, cyanobacteria can form pretty complex structures. “The cells on the outside of a colony are exposed to a lot of light, while those on the inside ...

Scientists solve structure enabling cyanobacteria to thrive in low light Date: February 5, 2020 Source: Penn State Summary: Scientists have determined the structure of the protein complex that ...

The cyanobacteria on the inside of a colony, for example, fluoresced a lot more than those on the fringes. They also grew a lot slower, dividing in two at about half the rate as their exterior ...
