Anabaena
A genus of CYANOBACTERIA consisting of trichomes that are untapered with conspicuous constrictions at cross-walls. A firm individual sheath is absent, but a soft covering is often present. Many species are known worldwide as major components of freshwater plankton and also of many saline lakes. The species Anabaena flos-aquae is responsible for acute poisonings of various animals. |
