Cyanobacteria North of 60°: Environmental DNA Approaches

Cyanobacterial blooms, such as those recently reported in Great Slave Lake (GSL, NWT), have sparked concern over the occurrence of toxic blooms in the North. This study investigated past and present incidences of cyanobacteria in lakes above latitude 60° N. The abundance of the toxin (microcystin) g...
