Responses to sublethal copper exposure in two strains of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Volvocales, Chlorophyceae) in autotrophic and mixotrophic conditions

The aim of this work was to determine the responses to sublethal copper exposure (20 and 40 mM CuCl2) in two Chlamydomonas reinhardtii strains: The wild type 4A+ and the pleiotropic mutant cur9, originally selected as a coppertolerant phenotype in mixotrophic conditions. Bioassays were performed in...
