Blue Green Algae Survival Strategies In Diverse Environment

The bok contains information on ecophysiological responses of blue green algae in habitata polluted by different types of industrial effluents, e.g the untreated efluent released from a molasses distillery, sponge-iron industry and a fertilizer factory. The blue green algal forms colonizing the exposed surface of archaeologically important temples and monuments of various regions of Indian is given.
