Identification of microalgae cultured in Bold’s Basal medium from freshwater samples, from a high-rise city
Abstract This study aimed at exploring microalgal heterogeneity from fresh water samples collected from inland water bodies in the heavily built city of Singapore. Culturable pure isolates (n = 94) were subject to an in-house microalgal DNA extraction method and LSU rDNA sequencing. Isolates were an...
