Zusammenfassung:•Responses of photosynthetic activities to UVC and H2O2 were investigated.•Changing of ultrastructure was screened under UVC and H2O2 treatments.•Aggregation of the D1 protein was caused by H2O2.•H2O2 had a stronger damage on PSI than UVC.•Synergetic effects of UVC and H2O2 on membrane systems and photosystems were studied. In order to get insight into the impacts of UVC/H2O2 on Microcystis aeruginosa, physiological and morphological changes as well as toxicity were detected under different UVC/H2O2 treatments. In the presence of sole UVC or H2O2, the net oxygen evolution rate decreased significantly (p
