Abstract excerpt

Adaptation of Spirogyra insignis (Chlorophyceae) to growth and survival in an extreme natural environment (sulphureous waters from La Hedionda Spa, S. Spain) was analysed by using an experimental model. Photosynthesis and growth of the alga were inhibited when it was cultured in La Hedionda Spa waters (LHW), but after further incubation for several weeks, the culture survived due to the growth of a variant that...
