Description

Algae are constantly present in aquatic environments and they increase rapidly in a short period of time due to changing environmental conditions and they are one of the most appropriate groups for the monitoring and control of the ecological status of aquatic ecosystems (Garrido and et al., 2013). Algae are the main producers of organic matter in aquatic environments, and so most of the aquatic production is directly dependent on their existence (Lieth and Whittaker, 2012).
