title: Effect of Light, Temperature, and Nutrient Deficiency on Structural and Functional Characteristics of the Coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi (Prymnesiophyceae)
abstract: Abstract A clonal culture of the coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi was isolated from the Black Sea plankton in February, 2023. Using scanning electron microscopy method, its species identification was performed. It was established that it belongs to the type A. The optimal temperature for the development of this culture (20°C) was detected. A temperature coefficient (Q 10 ) was 3.36 for the temperature range 5–15°C, 2.75 for 10–20°C. The effect of light on the structural and functional parameter
