Growth performance and biochemical profile of Azolla pinnata and Azolla caroliniana grown under greenhouse conditions

摘要: Paper description: Azolla is a floating fern that usually found in paddy water, streams, and pools, symbiosis with the nitrogen-fixing cyanobacterium Anabaena azollae dorsal lobe cavity of leaves. We determined greenhouse A. pinnata grows faster than caroliniana its photosynthetic efficiency more effective. In addition, palmitic acid, oleic acid lignoceric were to  be predominant . contain significant levels essential amino acids fatty these characteristics make them economically important for human nutrition aquaculture sector. Abstract: This study aimed to evaluate growth performance, pigment content changes, (EAAs), (FAs), proximate composition grown greenhouse. Plants nitrogen-free Hoagland’s solution at 28±2°C/21±2°C, day/night temperature 60-70% humidity examined on 3 rd , 5 th 10 15 days. The mean percentage plant relative rate 119% 0.148 gg -1 day respectively, while values 94% 0.120 respectively. Compared 3, amount total chlorophyll obtained decreased significantly (p 0.0.5) caroliniana. crude protein, lipid, cellulose, ash amounts EAAs higher Palmitic From contents, we concluded grew was https://doi.org/10.2298/ABS190131030K Received: January 31, 2019; Revised: March 22, Accepted: April 25, Published online: May 10, 2019 How cite this article: Kosesakal T, Yildiz M.
