Changes of growth and photosynthesis-related parameters of C. zofingiensis under nitrogen replete (NR) and nitrogen deprivation (ND) conditions. a Cell count. b Microscopic images of algal cells. c Chlorophyll content. DW dry weight. d Fv/Fm value. e Non-chemical quenching (NPQ) value. f Relative ROS level. The data are expressed as mean ± SD (n = 3). Asterisk right behind the data indicates the significant difference (t-test, p < 0.05) compared to 0 h of NR or ND
