Cyanobacteria in autumn: from Kauno Marios Lagoon to the fight against plant diseases

Autumn has arrived in Lithuania, yet cyanobacteria continue to successfully form blooms in the Kauno Marios Lagoon. As part of the project Biopesticides for agriculture: the water-bloom causing species against plant pathogens (HABpest, contract No. P-MIP-24-699) funded by the Research Council of Lithuania, at the beginning of September, AS-LAND prototype was used for the collection of 20 kg of cyanobacteria biomass, which will be tested against various agricultural crop pathogens.
