Light-induced changes in fatty acid profiles of specific lipid classes in several freshwater phytoplankton species

Light-induced changes in fatty acid profiles of specific lipid classes in several freshwater phytoplankton species

We tested the influence of two light intensities [40 and 300 µmol PAR / (m² s)] on the fatty acid composition of three distinct lipid classes in four freshwater phytoplankton species. We chose species of different taxonomic classes in order to detect potentially similar reaction characteristics that...
