Anti-Infective Secondary Metabolites of the Marine Cyanobacterium Morphotype between 1979 and 2022.

Cyanobacteria ascribed to the genus (Family Oscillatoriaceae) represent a potential therapeutic gold mine of chemically and biologically diverse natural products that exhibit a wide array of biological properties. Phylogenetic analyses have established the 'morpho-type' as a highly polyphyletic group and have resulted in taxonomic revision and description of an additional six new cyanobacterial genera in the same family to date. Among the most prolific marine cyanobacterial producers of biologically active compounds are the species (previously then ) (previously ), and .
