摘要
Cyanobacterial biodiversity and potential toxicity in coastal lagoons have barely been studied despite these transitional water systems being very important in conservation and for the preservation of economic resources. Most of these transitional systems have been affected by eutrophication, and climate change will severely affect them by promoting cyanobacteria growth, especially in Mediterranean areas. This study aims to characterize the diversity of epipelic and epiphytic cyanobacteria species in a Mediterranean coastal lagoon and their potential for toxins production (microcystins and saxitoxins). Strains were isolated and genetically identified. Toxins were extracted and quantified by LC/MS-MS. All the taxa belong to the former Oscillatoriales. The presence of Nodosilinea and Toxifilum is reported for the first time for Spanish waters, but Pseudanabaena, Phormidium, Geitlerinema and Synechococcus also formed part of benthic mats. All the strains contained Microcystin-YR (MC-YR), but saxitoxin (STX) was present only in the extracts of Nodosilinea and Pseudanabena. MC-LY, MC-LW and [D-Asp3] MC-LR were detected in the extracts of Synechococcus and MC-LF in Toxifilum, but at concentrations that did not permit quantification. Toxins production by epipelic and epiphytic strains in coastal lagoons may represent a hazard, but also an opportunity to obtain potentially interesting compounds that should be further studied.
