Growth of U. pertusa and G. filicina was inhibited by UV-B irradiation in mono-culture and specific growth rate （μ） declined as a result. Interspecific competition between U. pertusa and G filicina was closely related to the initial weights when co-cultured. When initial ratios of U. pertusa （U） to G filicina （G） were U：G=I.2：I and 1：1, U. pertusa was the dominant algae. When the initial U：G ratio was 1：1.2, G. filicina was competitively dominant in the earlier stage, but U. pertusa grew faster, superseding G. filicina in the later stage. At initial ration U：G = 1：1.4, G. filicina was predominant. Under UV-B irradiation, the competitive ability of G filicina was weakened and the interspecific competitive balance favored U. pertusa, which suggests that G. filicina was more sensitive to UV-B irradiation. We also probed the potential allelopathic effects between the two species, which led to mutual growth inhibition.展开更多
