Microcystins (MCs) produced by Microcystis aeruginosa are harmful to animal and human health, there is currently no effective method for their removal. Therefore, the development of biological approaches that inhibit cyanobacteria remove MCs needed. We identified strain MB1, confirmed as Morchella, using morphological mole­cular evolution methods. To assess impact MB1 on M. aeruginosa, we conducted an experiment in which inoculated with Morchella MB1. After co-cultivation 4‍ ‍d, inoculation 0.9696‍ ‍g completely inhibited removed while concurrently removing up 95% MC content. Moreover, within 3‍ ‍d co-cultivation, more than 50% nitrogen phosphorus from solution. techniques removal paramount safeguarding both environment well-being. herein successfully isolated its natural habitat. This effectively also reduced content Most importantly, it exhibited a robust capability eliminate MCs. The present results offer new technical reference mitigating algal blooms.
