The impact of microalgae chlorella vulgaris and scenedesmus quadricauda on the growth parameters of the ciliate paramecium caudatum

Аннотация

An important aspect of research in the field of microbial ecology is understanding the interactions between organisms, particularly the influence they have on others in an aquatic ecosystem. Green microalgae from the phylum Chlorophyta represent a diverse group of photosynthetic organisms, playing a significant role in ecological cycles and the sustainability of aquatic ecosystems. Investigations have been focused on evaluating the impact of two microalgae species, Chlorella vulgaris Beijerinck 1890 and Scenedesmus quadricauda Chodat 1926, on the growth and reproduction parameters of the natural population of Paramecium caudatum Ehrenberg, 1833.
