Abstract
We conducted detailed analysis on the effect of the culture conditions on growth, fatty acid composition and DHA/EPA ratio in Phaeodactylum tricornutum, a widely used microalga for aquaculture feedstuff in China. We found that the environmental stress conditions increased DHA/EPA ratio. The research will benefit the production of PUFA-rich and DHA/EPA-ratio-optimal microalgae for aquaculture feedstuff.
