Abstract:The effect of salinity (80 and 160 mM) was studied on the photosynthetic apparatus of the native cyanobacterium <i>Fischerella ambigua</i> str. FS 18 over a limited time scale (20, 40, and 60 min). 160 mM salinity for 40 and 60 min had stimulating effects on the photosystem II and phycobilisomes. 80 mM treatment for 20 and 40 min had an excitatory impact on the photosystem and phycobilisome yet were destructive by 60 min for both. The stimulatory and harmful effects of salinity and time are more th… Show more
