Abstract

The effects of salinity and light intensity on the growth of Caulerpa lentillifera were studied.The results showed that weight of Caulerpa lentillifera was the highest when it was cultured in 36‰ when salinity ranged between 22‰ and 41‰;and weight of Caulerpa lentillifera was the highest in the 3 000 lx treatment within the tested range of light intensity(0~5 000 lx).The study laid the solid basement for the research and cultivation of Caulerpa lentillifera.
