Application of uniform design to evaluate the different conditions on the growth of algae Prymnesium parvum
Abstract Prymnesium parvum is an environmentally harmful algae and well known for its toxic effects to the fish culture. However, there is a dearth of studies on the growth behavior of P. parvum and information on how the availability of nutrients and environmental factors affect their growth rate....

Abstract Prymnesium parvum is an environmentally harmful algae and well known for its toxic effects to the fish culture.
