    AnnotationSize of cells, way of multiplication and shape of colonies were analyzed in natural populations, semi-cultures derived from natural populations and in cultivated strains of Microcystis morphospecies. Samples were taken from eutrophic and hypertrophic water-bodies. After preliminary testing, we focused on cell diameter (ANOVA stat-program). We confirmed, that three of the investigated morphospecies (M. aeruginosa, M. viridis and M. wesenbergii) kept well their cell sizes when measured either in natural populations or in cultivated strains. According to our results, M. flos-aquae and M. ichthyoblabe populations did not differ. Large and small cells had the same origin. Small cells derived from large ones during a fast reproduction phase. The aim was to confirm existence of stable characters of the Microcystis morphotypes and thus to encourage future genetic investigation of internal diversity of this important genus.
