摘要

Abstract

Gracilaria lemaneiformis Bory is an economically important alga that is primarily used for agar production. Although tetraspores are ideal seeds for the cultivation of G. lemaneiformis

the most popular culture method is currently based on vegetative fragments

which is labor-intensive and time-consuming. In this study

we optimized the conditions for tetraspore release and evaluated the photosynthetic activities of different colonies formed from the branches of G. lemaneiformis using a PAM (pulse-amplitude-modulated) measuring system. The results showed that variations in temperature and salinityhad significant effects on tetraspore yield. However

variations in the photon flux density (from 15 μmol m−2 s−1 to 480 μmol m−2 s−1) had no apparent effect on tetraspore yield. Moreover

the PAM-parameters Y(I)

Y(II)

ETR(I)

ETR(II) and Fv/Fm of colonies formed from different branches showed the same trend: parameter values of first generation branches>second generation branches>third generation branches. These results suggest that the photosynthetic activities of different colonies of branches changed with the same trend. Furthermore

photosynthesis in G. lemaneiformis was found to be involved in vegetative reproduction and tetraspore formation. Finally

the first generation branches grew slowly

but accumulated organic compounds to form large numbers of tetraspores. Taken together

these results showed that the first generation branches are ideal materials for the release of tetraspores.
