Variability of the microcystin synthetase gene cluster in the genus Planktothrix (Oscillatoriales, Cyanobacteria)
In populations of Planktothrix, microcystin-producers and non-producers, which are morphologically identical, coexist. In order to develop a basis for the reliable detection of microcystin producers in field samples with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based methods, we studied the presence and vari...

description | In populations of
Planktothrix, microcystin-producers and non-producers, which are morphologically identical, coexist. In order to develop a basis for the reliable detection of microcystin producers in field samples with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based methods, we studied the presence and variability of eight regions of the
mcy gene cluster in 46
Planktothrix strains, including both microcystin-producing and non-producing ones. PCR-amplification products for two
mcy gene regions were also found in non-microcystin-producing strains, indicating the existence of natural mutants. PCR-products of the other regions studied were only detected in microcystin-producing strains. Two of these
mcy-amplicons were variable in sequence and length. Four gene regions remained that were conserved and specific for microcystin-producing
Planktothrix strains, and thus qualified to detect the respective chemotypes in environmental samples. |
