Abstract
Green algae of the genus Chlorella are widely used in photosynthesis research. The lack of morphological characters that are suitable for a traditional classification of this genus has led to the development of a biochemical taxonomy, which uses a key of easily determined biochemical and physiological characters for the delimitation and characterization of 14 Chlorella species with 88 strains (KESSLER, 1982).
