Effect of inland saline water ionic profiles on growth, chemical composition and agar characteristics of Gracilaria cliftonii (Withell, Miller and Kraft 1994) under laboratory conditions

Effect of inland saline water ionic profiles on growth, chemical composition and agar characteristics of Gracilaria cliftonii (Withell, Miller and Kraft 1994) under laboratory conditions

Increase in salinity of inland water sources is adversely affecting aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems around the world including Australia. Inland saline water (ISW) with similar ionic profile to ocean water has potential for culturing marine species. Gracilaria species are commercially important a...
