Fig. 2From: Activity of acetyl-CoA carboxylase is not directly linked to accumulation of lipids when Chlorella vulgaris is co-immobilised with Azospirillum brasilense in alginate under autotrophic and heterotrophic conditionsACCase activity in Chlorella vulgaris (UTEX 2714) immobilised alone and when immobilised with Azospirillum brasilense Cd (DSM 1843) under autotrophic and heterotrophic conditions and after incubation for 6 days and initial supply of 90 mg NH4 + L−1. a ACCase activity per 1 mL culture; b total lipids per cell. c and d are the same under ammonium starvation. Statistics for each subfigure applied separately. Columns denoted by a different lowercase letter for autotrophic versus heterotrophic conditions for immobilised and co-immobilisation, which differ significantly at p < 0.05 using Student’s t test. Columns denoted by a different uppercase letter differ significantly by one-way ANOVA and LSD post hoc analysis at p < 0.05. Bars SE. A missing bar signifies negligible SE.
