Use of morpho-physiological characteristics for differentiation of the species of Prototheca
Abstract
Fifty-two cultures of Prototheca spp. isolated from water and 7 isolates received from a culture collection were tested for their ability to assimilate carbon and nitrogen sources. Based upon these findings and on micromorphological features of the isolates a rapid method allowing differentiation of Prototheca spp. in culture is presented.
