Comparison of the effectiveness of four organic chemoattractants towards zoospores of Ulva pertusa and macrofouling
Algal spores respond to many environmental variables, especially, to chemical “cues”. This chemotactic response can be utilized to attract spores, thereby colonization of a new substrata is possible to be influenced. In this attempt, four chemoattractant candidates were screened against spores of Ul...
