Mcy gene

Microcystis is a bloom-forming, common cyanobacterium in Dau Tieng reservoir used for public water supply. To assess the presence of potentially microcystin-producing Microcystis, molecular techniques were conducted and acute toxicity bioassays were performed with the microcrustacean Daphnia magna exposed to cyanobacterial crude extracts. Potentially toxigenic of isolated strains was characterized by amplifying mcyD genes and identification of Microcystis was confirmed by 16S rRNA amplification.
