REGULATION OF FATTY ACID COMPOSITION BY IRRADIANCE LEVEL IN THE EUSTIGMATOPHYTE NANNOCHLOROPSIS SP. 1
@article{Sukenik1989REGULATIONOF, title={REGULATION OF FATTY ACID COMPOSITION BY IRRADIANCE LEVEL IN THE EUSTIGMATOPHYTE NANNOCHLOROPSIS SP. 1}, author={Assaf Sukenik and Yael Carmeli and Tamar Berner}, journal={Journal of Phycology}, year={1989}, volume={25} }
Chemical composition and quantitative cytological measurements were determined for the eustigmatophyte Nannochloropsis sp. Cultures were grown in turbidostats at three irradiance levels: growth‐limiting light, growth‐saturating light and photoinhibiting light. Cellular chlorophyll a content decreased as irradiance level increased, concomitant with a disproportionate reduction in carotenoid content. Nannochloropsis sp. grown in saturating light was characterized by a high content of lipid, fatty…

Variations in cellular fatty acid composition in Nannochloropsis grown under different environmental conditions of irradiance level and temperature were attributed to alterations in relative cellular content of lipid classes as well as in the relative composition of lipid class molecular species.

The growth rate in continuous cultures of Isochrysis aff.galbana clone T.iso is suggested to be controlled so as to adjust the relative proportions of polyunsaturated fatty acids in lipid classes of the diet meant for larval nutrition.

Changes in the fatty acid composition of symbiotic dinoflagellates from the hermatypic coral Echinopora lamellosa during adaptation to the irradiance level

The composition of fatty acids of symbiotic dinoflagellates isolated from the hermatypic coral Echinoporal lamellosa adapted to the irradiance of 95, 30, 8, and 2% PAR was studied and it was supposed that light-induced changes in the FA composition reflect the interrelation between photosynthesis and FA biosynthesis.
