Abstract
Protosiphon botryoides Klebs grows without evident zoosporogenesis in inorganic media in which strontium is substituted for calcium. Growth is 50 to 90 percent of that obtained with calcium; when sodium is substituted for calcium, there is no appreciable growth. Motility was observed at or above CaCl2. 2H2O levels of 5 mg/lit., with or without strontium.Keywords
