concentration in Photo1 (P1): Photoautotrophic control culture
with additions of 882 µM sodium nitrate (NaNO3);Photo 2 (P2): Photoautotrophic control culture with additions
of 441 µM urea and 882 µM sodium nitrate (NaNO3);Photo 3 (P3): Photoautotrophic control culture with additions
441 µM of urea; Mixo 1 (M1): Mixotrophic culture with additions
of 0.1M glycerol and 882 µM sodium nitrate (NaNO3);Mixo 2 (M2): Mixotrophic culture with additions of 0.1M
glycerol, 441 µM of urea and 882 µM sodium nitrate
(NaNO3); Mixo 3 (M3): Mixotrophic culture with
additions of 0.1M glycerol and 441 µM of urea; Mixo 4 (M4):Mixotrophic culture with additions of 0.1M glycerol, feeded with 441 µM
of urea post 36 hours of cultivation. Values indicate mean (n = 3) with
standard error; * indicate statistical significance by one-way analysis
of variance (ANOVA), p-value < 0.05.
