Nodularia is a toxic cyanobacterium that causes problem blooms in Australian waters and worldwide. The effects of environmental conditions on physiological processes in Nodularia are poorly understood and information on the effects on macromolecular synthesis and photosynthesis in Nodularia is limited. This project is of fundamental biological importance, making a major contribution to understanding the impacts of environmental conditions on the physiological performance and ecology of Nodularia. The research has significance, both nationally and internationally, for the prediction of algal blooms in coastal and estuarine ecosystems, and will increase our knowledge of the factors controlling growth and toxicity of Nodularia worldwide.

节藻是一种有毒的蓝藻，在澳大利亚水域和世界各地都会造成水华问题。环境条件对根瘤菌生理过程的影响知之甚少，对根瘤菌大分子合成和光合作用的影响的信息也很有限。该项目具有重要的生物学意义，为了解环境条件对节藻生理性能和生态的影响做出了重大贡献。这项研究对预测沿海和河口生态系统中的藻类水华具有重要的国内外意义，并将增加我们对控制结节藻生长和毒性的因素的认识。
