Summary This research sought to develop and test rapid genetic methods to identify toxic cyanobacteria. The key objectives were to (1) conduct a literature review and industry questionnaire examining options for rapid genetic tests; (2) characterize and understand the genes involved in cylindrospermopsin and anatoxin production; (3) adapt conventional PCR assays to real-time PCR; (4) develop rapid field methods for DNA preparation; and (5) develop probes for toxin genes and testing in the field
