Interactive effects of light quality and culturing temperature on algal cell size, biomass doubling time, protein content, and carbohydrate content.

Light management strategy can be used to improve algal biomass and nutrient production. However, the response of algal metabolism to different light qualities, especially their interaction with other environmental factors, is not well understood. This study focuses on the interactive effects of light quality and culturing temperature on algal protein content and carbohydrate content of C.
