Synechocystis Group

Medical Definition: Unicellular CYANOBACTERIA that divide by binary fission in two or three successive planes at right angles to one another. Typically, the cells occur singly or in pairs. These organisms are isolated from freshwater and seawater environments. By examining morphological, physiological, and chemical properties it has been possible to subdivide this group into four "strain clusters". These clusters are equivalent to genera but have not been formalized.
Guide Notes: a group of CYANOBACTERIA found in fresh & sea water
Previously Indexed: Cyanobacteria (1971-1991)
