Bioenergetic analysis of mixotrophic growth in Chlorella vulgaris and Scenedesmus acutus

Ogawa, Takahira, Aiba, Shuichi·1981·Biotechnology and Bioengineering

Abstract

Abstract The specific growth rate of Chlorella vulgaris in the presence of glucose (mixotroph) was always larger than that in autotroph when the light intensity was less than 10 klux. However, Scenedesmus acutus behaved differently, i.e., when the light intensity was more than 6 klux, the specific growth rate in mixotroph became smaller than that in autotroph. Cellular contents of chlorophyll a and b in Scenedesmus acutus that deteriorated more markedly in mixotroph than those of Chlorella vulgaris could account for these different growth behaviors. In other words, mechanisms relevant to the photosynthesis and the oxidative phosphorylation of glucose seem to function independently with respect to Chlorella Vulugaris.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
