Expansion of Freshwater Harmful Cyanobacteria in Brackish Waters: Salt Stress Responses, Toxigenic Dynamics, and Ecological Risks along the Freshwater-to-Marine Continuum

Abstract In recent years, freshwater harmful cyanobacterial blooms (CyanoHABs) and their associated cyanotoxins have been increasingly detected in estuaries and coastal lagoons, indicating that some freshwater taxa can survive in low-to-moderate salinity and may maintain their to...
