The effects of triphenyltin chloride on respiration and photosynthesis in the green algae Enteromorpha intestinalis and Ulothrix pseudoflacca
Abstract Respiration and photosynthesis in zoospores of Enteromorpha intestinalis (L.) Link and Ulothrix pseudoflacca Wille showed greater sensitivity to inhibition by triphenyltin chloride than in vegetative tissue. Photosynthesis in zoospores and vegetative tissue of U. pseudoflacca was more resistant to triphenyltin chloride inhibition than in zoospores and vegetative tissue of E. intestinalis. Respiration in zoospores and vegetative tissue of both species was equally sensitive to triphenyltin chloride.
