Observations on the ionic composition of blue green algae growing in saline lagoons

摘要: In their monograph Brooks and Brooks (1947) have discussed the degree of permeability in blue-green algae which can withstand relatively concentrated brines whose osmotic pressures are about 150 atmospheres. They observe that these cells permeable to water both directions in response forces. But no quantitative data given to substantiate statement explain various physiological changes taking place algal under varying salinity conditions.
