Effects of different CO2 concentrations on the growth and photosynthesis rates of the wild type and mutants 283 and 359 of Chlorella vulgaris ESP-31. a Growth curves under 5% CO2. b Growth curves under 25% CO2. c Biomass productivity. d Net photosynthesis rates. A 50-mL culture of each strain aerated with different CO2 (0.1 vvm) was grown in BG-11 at 28 °C under 12 h light–dark (light intensity 150 μmol m−2 s−1) conditions for 4 days. Data shown are the means (along with the standard deviations) of at least two independent experiments
