Activity of salicylic acid on the growth and biochemism of Chlorella vulgaris Beijerinck - Acta physiologiae Plantarum, 24(1), p.45-52, 2002 .

This study was conducted to investigate the influence of salicylic acid (SA)on the growth and changes of nucleic acids, protein, photosynthetic pigments, sugar content and photosynthesis levels in the green alga Chlorella vulgaris Beijerinck (Chlorophyceae). The most significant changes in the content of nucleic acids and proteins was observed at the concentration [ 0 -4 M SA between 8 and 12 day of cultivation. This concentration of SA increased the number of cells (about 40
