Ecological peculiarities of natural populations of hyperhalobe microalga Dunaliella salina Teod. in solar salt work ponds of the South of Ukraine and Russia

The paper presents the results of expedition research of some solar salt works of the South of Ukraine (Kherson region, AR Crimea) and lake Baskunchak (Astrachan region, Russia), as well as stationary observations on populations of the microalga Dunaliella salina Teod. in the ponds of Heroyske salt works (Gola Prystan’ district, Kherson region) that we carried out in 2005–2008. We discuss the approaches to modeling natural environment in D. salina laboratory culture to develop and optimize the process of industrial culturing in the open culture
