strain WH8102 (with Ni-SOD) and WH7803 (with Fe- and Cu,Zn-SOD) in a nitrate medium while
the growth of
Synechococcus
sp. strains WH5701 (with an Fe- and Mn-SOD) and PCC 7002 (with
an Fe-SOD gene) remained unaffected by the limitation of Ni. The total SOD activity decreased by
30% and 15% of the wild-type in
Synechococcus
sp. strains WH8102 and WH7803, respectively. The
