In this study, H. fusiformis embryos were cultured under different environmental conditions, including different temperatures(15℃, 20℃, and 25℃), sunlight intensities(100%, 50%, and 25% of full solar radiation) and types of UVR(UV-A and UV-B). Then, we determined the lengths, maximal quantum yields( Fv/Fm), and survival rates of the embryos. The results showed that the embryos had the highest lengths, Fv/Fm values and survival percentages when cultured under a temperature of 20℃ and 25% sunlight intensity. The full level of solar radiation severely reduced the growth and survival ratios of the embryos. Hizikia embryos recovered within 2 h from the damage caused by short-term(30 min) high radiation(about 70% of full solar radiation) and UVR exposure. However, the viabilities of the embryos were significantly decreased after 4 h exposure to UVR. According to these results, we propose that culture conditions with indoor natural light and room temperature would be favorable for the growth, development and physiology of H izikia embryos.展开更多
