The main objective of my work relates to the physiology of microalgae as related to mass culturing outdoors. In a nutshell the work so far points out that our original approach taken some 35 years ago of treating algal growth outdoors in terms of light limitation or a process governed by one main limiting factor was a naive attempt to simplify things. Our findings point out that in many cases the system is down regulated or even photoinhibited not necessarily because of exposure to high light intensity but rather due to other environmental stress that reduce the photosynthetic activity be it temperature or salinity. As a result the ability of the cells to utilize light by the photosynthetic machinery is reduced and thus light levels that are considered as harmless under optimal growth conditions are turning to be over-saturating levels and result in down regulating and photoinhibiting the photosynthetic apparatus. Based on this working hypothesis we are also reviewing some of our old data related to the role of light and temperature in outdoor cultures and getting a better understanding that algal cultures are shifted during the day from light limitation to light inhibition in a relatively very fast cycle. The major organism studied was Spirulina or under it scientific name Arthrospira platensis. A large collection of strains collected during the years from all over the world is used in our studies. In recent years a significant part of the work is dedicated to selection of species (Nannochloropsis) either from different habitats or after induced random mutations with the attempt to isolate strains of higher adaptability capacity to biotic stress. Present Academic Activities: The main activities in my group along the above mentioned line are: - Acclimation of the photosynthetic apparatus of two Spirulina strains to salinity stress and low temperature: (photoinhibition and antioxidants). - The role of environmental factors ( high salt and high light ) on growth and fatty-acid biosynthesis in Monodus subterraneus - Isolation of mutants of the marine microalgae Nannochloropsis. oceamica resitent to 'oxidative stress" and the modification induced in their growth and photosynthetic capacity.
