Abstract
A total of 34 microalgae species were isolated from the digestive tract of hard clam (Meretrix lusoria). Among them, 32 species were identified by microscopic observation and comparison with reference pictures. Two unidentified microalgae names U4 and U5 were further characterized. The 18S rRNA genes were successfully amplified by common 18S rRNA gene primers from these isolates. Sequence analysis of these amplified DNA form the solate U4 and U5 showed 97% and 98% sequence similarity to those of Neorhodella cyanea and Minutocellus polymorphus, respectively. Scanning electron microscopic observation also confirmed the species identification. Both Neorhodella sp. and Minutocellus sp. showed the highest growth at 18 oC with the specific growth rate and number of divisions per day of 1.62±0.39 and 2.24, and 0.39±0.01 and 0.56, respectively.
