Went to Mountain "Lake" yesterday for a faculty retreat and I had to get some samples to look for microbes while I was there. Pretty epic mud.
The claim to fame of this lake is that Dirty Dancing was filmed here (when the lake was full). It is one of two natural lakes in Virginia and it has highly unstable water levels.

This new research in Scientific Reports takes a #metagenomics and Q-PCR approach to explore the composition of the Cyanobacterial populations and their cyanotoxin production gene in major rivers across the United States (in 2019) and identifies Microcystis as the key toxin producing genus across this study.
