Table 5.
Fatty acid composition (as % of total lipids and three major lipid groups) of Chloromonas nivalis subsp. tatrae field sample (LP01). The table gives only those fatty acids that have abundances greater than 0.1%. The relative proportion of saturated (SAFA), monounsaturated (MUFA) and polyunsaturated (PUFA) fatty acids is also given.
