The atmosphere was made aerobic by cyanobacteria, a group of bacteria that includes most bacterial photosynthesizers. Originally they were called blue-green algae because of their ability to photosynthesize, but were reclassified when it was found that they are more similar to bacteria, existing as prokaryotic cells. They also can fix nitrogen into organic compounds that can be used in amino acids and nucleic acids.

Blue green algae, or Cyanobacteria, are remarkable in as much as they are somewhat of a hybrid between algae and bacteria. In some ways they resemble green plants and algae, and in others they are much closer to bacteria. The latter explains why antibiotics are sometimes used to rid the tank blue-greens.

The Molecular Biology of Cyanobacteria - English
URL: http://photoscience.la.asu.edu/photosyn/books/cyanobk.html

The Molecular Biology of Cyanobacteria summarizes more than a decade of progress in analyzing the taxonomy, biochemistry, physiology, cellular differentiation and developmental biology of cyanobacteria by modern molecular methods, especially molecular genetics. During this period cyanobacterial molecular biologists have been "studying those things that cyanobacteria do well," and they have made cyanobacteria the organisms of choice for detailed molecular analyses of oxygenic photosynthesis.

photosynthetic bacteria that contain chlorophyll. For many years they were classified in the plant kingdom along with algae, but discoveries made possible by the electron microscope and new biochemical techniques have shown them to be prokaryotes more similar to bacteria than to plants, and they are now placed in the kingdom Monera.

Toxic cyanobacterial blooms continue to increase in number and their occurence is widespread in surface waters throughout the world. Much of the email traffic directed towards Cyanosite deals with cyanobacterial toxins. A website devoted to toxic cyanobacteria has been maintained at Latrobe in Australia for nearly as long as Cyanosite.

Cyanobacteria - English
URL: http://www.rz.uni-frankfurt.de/~schauder/cyanos/cyanos.html

Cyanobacteria form oxigen during photosynthesis. It is thought that it was these bacteria that were responsible for the first appearance of significant amounts of oxigen on earth about 2.3 billion years ago. Today, many different forms and shapes of cyanobacteria are known. In environmental samples cyanobacteria are easily recognized by light microsopy. If illuminated with green light, they will show a bright red autofluorescence. This is due to the presence of phycobili proteins and chlorophyll a.

Fossil Record of the Cyanobacteria - English
URL: http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/bacteria/cyanofr.html

The cyanobacteria have an extensive fossil record. The oldest known fossils, in fact, are cyanobacteria from Archaean rocks of western Australia, dated 3.5 billion years old. This may be somewhat surprising, since the oldest rocks are only a little older: 3.8 billion years old!
