Abstract:Abstract:In order to study the toxic effect of petroleum hydrocarbons on marine phytoplankton, Isochrysis galbana was investigated by using the index of 96 h-EC50 and population growth. The results showed that the 96 h-EC50 increased significantly (P<0.05) when temperature rising from 15℃ to 25℃. The intrinsic growth rates (r) increased but the time to enter into the stationary phase shortened from 15℃ to 25℃, and the carrying capability (K) reached highest at 20℃. In addition, the 96 h-EC50 in the salinity of… Show more
