Figure 1

Comparison of growth and lipid accumulation of Monoraphidium neglectum with Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. (A) Growth under nitrogen replete (+N) and nitrogen deficient (-N) conditions at two different culture densities (high and low density) (n = 6). (B) Neutral and polar lipid content as determined after modified Folch extraction and subsequent chromatography after five days of cultivation (n = 4). (C) Relative abundances of fatty acids (determined by comparison to internal C17-FA standard set to a value of 100) of M. neglectum (top) and C. reinhardtii (bottom) after nitrogen starvation for five days in low culture densities (-N, low density), (n = 4). Error bars indicate standard deviation.
