An abnormal mono-specific bloom of the cyanobacterium Microcystis aeruginosa had developed at a specific location (transitional zone, monitoring station of Hoenam) in Daecheong Reservoir from middle of July to early August, 2001. The maximum cell counts during the peak bloom reached 1,477,500 cells/mL, which was more than 6~10 times greater than those at other monitoring sites. The hypothesis of this study is that the timing and location of the algal bloom was highly correlated with the local environmental niche that was controled by physical processes such as hydrodynamic mixing and pollutant transport in the reservoir. A three-dimensional, coupled hydrodynamic and ecological model, ELCOM-CAEDYM, was applied to the period of development and subsequent decline of the bloom. The model was calibrated against observed water temperature profiles and water quality variables for different locations, and applied to reproduce the algal bloom event and justify the limiting factor that controled the Microcystis bloom at R3. The simulation results supported the hypothesis that the phosphorus loading induced from a contaminated tributary during several runoff events are closely related to the rapid growth of Microcystis during the period of bloom. Also the physical environments of the reservoir such as a strong thermal stratification and weak wind velocity conditions provided competitive advantage to Microcystis given its light adaptation capability. The results show how the ELCOM-CAEDYM captures the complex interactions between the hydrodynamic and biogeochemical processes, and the local environmental niche that is preferable for cyanobacterial species growth.

In order to determine the factors causing Microcystis spp. bloom in the lower Nakdong River (Mulgum), we prepared wide ranges of pH, nutrient(N, P) concentration and the light through an enclosure experiment far 10days (pH gradient. 6.5, 7.5, 8.5, 9.5; gradient of N, P: ${\frac{1}{2}}DW+{\frac{1}{2}}River$ Water (RW), RW only; four different levels of nutrient addition/day; light: 100, 85, 60, 30, 15% of full sun light). From three days, the difference of Microcystis density in each enclosures was observed. The high density of Microcystis was maintained in the treatments over pH 9.5 and 85% of full sun light. However, in all nutrient treatments, relatively lower cell density than that of pH and light treatments was observed. These results suggested that pH and light input may play more important roles than nutrients in the early development of Microcystis bloom in the eutrophic lower Nakdong River.

부영양호수의 남조 Microcystis aeruginosa 제어를 위해 호수 바닥층에서 분리한 살조세균과 섬모충을 현장여과수를 이용하여 조류배양조건과 동일한 조건에서 단일 또는 혼합적용하여 그 결과를 서로 비교하였다. 두 생물제재는 저자들의 선행연구와 같이 단일 적용시 매우효과적인 반면, 혼합적용시 오히려 조류의 성장을 촉진하였다. 결국 남조 Microcystis제어를 위한 섬모충이나 박테리아의 적용은 다른 한 생물군의 낮은 밀도를 요구하였으며, 이처럼 동일 조류에 대한 제어능을 갖는 두 생물제재의 배타적인 관계는 앞으로 부영양호수의 남조대발생 제어에 귀중한 자료로서 제공될 것이다.

Fusaricidin analogs, produced by Paenibacillus polymyxa, were tested for selective control of a major bloom-forming cyanobacterium, Microcystis sp. Fusaricidin (A and B mixtures) and four analogs were isolated from P. polymyxa E681 and investigated for their inhibition of cyanobacterial cell growth. Among the four fusaricidin analogs, fraction 915 Da (designated as Fus901) showed growth inhibition activity for Microcystis aeruginosa but not for Anabaena variabilis and Scenedesmus acutus. Microcystin concentration decreased up to 70% and its content per cell also decreased over 50% after 3 days. Fusaricidin exhibited growth inhibition against Gram-positive bacteria but Fus901 did not. Molecular weights of fusaricidin A and B were 883 Da and 897 Da, whereas that of Fus901 was 915 Da. Structure analysis by a ring-opening method revealed a linear form for Fus901. Expression of the pod gene related to oxidative stress was increased 2.1-fold by Fus901 and that of mcyD decreased up to 40%. These results indicate that Fus901 exerts oxidative stress against M. aeruginosa. Thus, Fus901 can be used as a selective cyanobactericide without disturbing the ecological system and could help in decreasing the microcystin concentration.

대청호 남조세균 수화 기작에 대한 이해를 돕고자, 1997년부터 2002년까지 (2000년 제외)의 조사 자료를 바탕으로 남조세균 군집 특성을 해석하고 수화 발달 단계를 3단계로 구분하여 환경요인과의 관련성을 파악하였다. 남조세균 수화의 시작은 6월 하순부터 시작하며, 강과 호소의 중간 성향을 가진 정점 1부터 발생하였다. 대청호의 수화 발생 기간은 댐축 앞 지점인 정점 4를 기준으로 하는 경우, 약 $60\~70$일이었으나, 1999년의 경우는 7월 19일부터 11일로 이례적인 현상이었다. Microcystis aeruginosa은 6월에 출현하기 시작하여 1998년과 2002년은 8월 말에서 9월 초, 1999년과 2001년은 7월 말에 절정을 이루었다. M. aeruginosa의 현존량이 처음 증가하는 시기는 1998년은 6월 22일, 1999년은 6월 28일,2001년은 7월 4일 그리고 2002년은 6월 25일로 모두 표층 수온이 $25^{\circ}C$를 넘는 시기였다. M. aeruginosa의 구성비는 식물플랑크톤 현존량에 대해서는 $68.1\%,$ 남조세균에 대해서는 $74.2\%$, Microcystis속에 대해서는 $88.8\%$이었다. M. aeruginosa의 연도별 남조세균 대비 구성비는 1998년 $30.3\%,$ 1999년 $34.\6%,$ 2001년 $94.4\%,$ 2002년 $42.9\%$이었다. 1998년 Anabaenu spp.는 4월부터 출현하기 시작하여 8월 하순부터 9월 중순까지 정점에 따라 $1.0{\times}10^4\;cells\;mL^{-1}$ 이상으로 분석되었다. Anabaena속은 준비기에 남조세균 수화 추이에 한 축을 담당하고 있었다. 소멸기에서는 Anabaena spp., Oscillatorin spp., Aphanizomenon flos-aquae가 M. aeruginosa의 소멸을 대신하여 현존량이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 남조세균 수화에 미치는 강우의 영향은 시기별로 달라, 준비기의 강우는 남조세균 성장을 돕고, 소멸기의 강우는 남조세균의 소멸을 가속화하는 것으로 해석되었다. 수화기에는 강우의 양이 많을 경우에는 수화 발달을 저해하였으나, 적을 경우에는 그 영향력이 낮았다.

Miceocystis aeruginosa에 의한 심한 수화가 발생한 1996년 여름동안 공산호에서 식물플랑크톤의 일수직분포와 물리.화학적 요인을 조사하였다. 최대 현존량은 M. aeruginosa가 우점으로 나타난 표층에서 나타났으며, 수심에 따라 점차 감소하였다. M. aeruginosa개체군의 높은 밀도가 이른 아침과 저녁에 표층에 축척되었으나 일몰 후에 급격히 감소하였다. 현존량의 대부분은 수심 5m 내에 분포하였고, 현존량의 일변화가 표층에서 명확하게 나타났으나 수직이동은 나타나지 않았다. 표층에서 현존량의 일변화는 바람에 의한 수평적 이동의 결과로 추측되었다.

The effect of silver ion solution on the growth of Microcystis aeruginosa UTEX 2388 (cyanobacterium) and Chlorella sp. KCTC AG20136 (green alga) was investigated using separated and mixed culture in filtered natural water and BG11 medium. In separated culture, M. aeruginosa UTEX 2388 and Chlorella sp. KCTC AG20136 were found to be sensitive to 0.01 and 0.1 mg L$^{-1}$ of silver ion, respectively. Also, the silver ion concentrations for the growth inhibition of M. aeruginosa UTEX 2388 and Chlorella sp. KCTC AG20136 in the mixed culture were same in separated culture. Cyanobacteria were more sensitive to the silver ion solution than green algae. In bloom sample, the minimal inhibition concentration of silver ion solution for the low Chl-${\alpha}$ sample (110$\sim$190 ${\mu}g$ L$^{-1}$) and high Chl-${\alpha}$ sample (1,500$\sim$1,900 ${\mu}g$ L$^{-1}$) was about 0.1 and 3.0 mg L$^{-1}$, respectively. The silver ion concentration for the inhibition of algal bloom sample was affected by the algal biomass. In order to use silver ion solution for the control of algal bloom, the silver ion concentration must be determined in consideration of a minimal effect on the environment.

Long-term preservation of bloom-forming cyanobacteria was evaluated using cryopreservation and freeze-drying of nine strains belonging to four genera and seven species. All test strains, except Aphanizomenon flos-aquae NIER- 10028, showed partial or complete survival following cryopreservation and freeze-drying. Frozen and freeze-dried strains were preserved for more than two years and were revived monthly. Most strains showed higher post-thaw viability after cryopreservation, especially without cryoprotectant compared to freeze-drying. Microcystis aeruginosa NIER-10010, M. viridis NIER-10020, M. ichthyoblabe NIER-10023, M. novacekii NIER-10029 and Oscillatoria sancta NIER-10027 were revived after 2.5 years of cryopreservation. These results suggest that cryopreservation may be an easy and timesaving long-term preservation method for bloom-forming cyanobacteria.

The standing crop of genus Microcystis, microcystin concentrations and environmental factors were monitored at stations of the lower reaches of the Nakdong River in 1998 and 1999 during the periods of its occurrence. The Microcystis were observed from May to Octorber, and the cell density was highest at Station Seonam up to 250,000 cells${\cdot}ml^{-1}$ forming scum over the water surface. There were signigicant relationships between the standing crop of Microcystis and nitrate nitrogen, total phosphorus concentrations and Ph. Presumably these parameters were important in the succession to Microcystis dominated phytoplankton community in the summer period in the river. However, Ammonium nitrogen, phosphate phosphorus concentrations and N/P ratio were not critical factors. The Microcystis bloom was notable above $25^{\circ}C$ of surface water temperature. Microcystins were detected from May to November in the algal materials from the river. The 84.2% of algal materials with Microcystis exhibited the microcystin with the maximum of 1711.8 ${\mu}g{\cdot}g^{-1}$ dw. The microcystin concentrations in the algal materials were significantly related to the stading crop of Microcystis, which was the primary determinant factor in the toxin levle of algal materials. The concentrations were also significantly related to pH of the water column in the positive pattern.
