Abstract
The effect of copper (CuCl2·2H2O) on growth, heterocyst frequency, acetylene reduction, H2 production and photosynthetic O2 evolution of Nostoc linckia was studied. Whereas copper inhibited growth and other physiological processes, it increased heterocyst frequency and H2 production. We conclude that copper pollution could considerably alter nitrogen dynamics in fresh water systems.
