摘　　要：为探索蓝藻水华的形成原因,从2007年以来对巢湖西区浮游藻类种类、优势种季节变化、初级生产力、水质参数及优势种的光合生理生态学特性作了观测。关于蓝藻水华形成过程中迅猛发展的原因,近80a已提出了10种假说,但对解释巢湖形成的蓝藻水华,尚显不足。基于对蓝藻水华的了解,提出了如下"优势种光合假说":(1)蓝藻水华包含各种藻类,蓝藻水华发生不仅与藻细胞浓度有关,还与水体初级生产力直接有关。巢湖中这两者在夏季最大,在冬季最小。但无定量关系。(2)水华藻类中生长最快、细胞密度最大的是优势种,含有多个优势种时可能随季节更替。巢湖几乎整年发生蓝藻水华,已检测出4种优势种都是蓝藻,从早春起先是水华鱼腥藻,以后有绿色微囊藻、惠氏微囊藻和铜绿微囊藻。(3)各种环境因子都影响优势种生长,其中少数主导因子影响较大。在巢湖富营养条件下,光强、温度和pH值是主导因子。(4)主导因子对优势种光合活性的影响,可决定其能否处于优势。巢湖的温度和pH值变化可能促进了惠氏微囊藻取代绿色微囊藻,铜绿微囊藻取代惠氏微囊藻,而光强变化可能调节冬季时水华鱼腥藻取代了绿色微囊藻,春季时正好是相反的取代。Abstract： Elucidation of the causes of cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms （CHABs） may be a precondition for their control. We have investigated Lake Chaohu since 2007 ; identifying phytoplankton species, observing seasonal variation in dominant species, measuring primary productivity, detecting changes in limnological characteristics, identifying ＂leading factors＂, and then assaying the ecophysiology of photosynthesis in the dominant cyanobacteria. We also analyzed the historical events relating to CHABs in this lake. Our studies showed that phytoplankton diversity varied seasonally, and dominant cyanobacteria represented more than 74% of the total phytoplankton cells. Dominant species in 2008 to 2009 included Microcystis viridis （ in April, May, June, October, November and December） ; M. wesenbergii （ in July and August）; M. aeruginosa （in September）; and Anabaenaflos-aquae （in January, February and March）. Blooms were recorded over 100 years ago in this lake, and no appropriate explanations have been advanced for their causes. Since the1930s, researchers have presented the following ten hypotheses on bloom formation： （A） the TN/TP hypothesis; （B） the inorganic nitrogen hypothesis; （C） the buoyancy hypothesis; （D） the storage strategy hypothesis; （E） the low light hypothesis; （F） the high pI-L/low CO2 hypothesis; （G） the elevated water temperature hypothesis; （H） the trace element hypothesis; （I） the zooplankton grazing hypothesis; and （J） the evolutionary adaptation hypothesis. Although these hypotheses explain why cyanobacteria successfully compete over eukaryotic algae in most lakes and reservoirs, they cannot clarify why different dominant cyanobaeterial species appear in seasonal succession in Lake Chaohu. A new hypothesis is needed. Based on our understanding, we have constructed ＂the photosynthesis of dominant species hypothesis＂, as follows ： （1） Blooms include various species of eyanobacteria and algae. Bloom initiation is re
