Abstract

Based on the limited resources available to algal flora in Yazd province in the center of Iran, cultivation, purification and identification of soil algae from seven sites was performed in summer 2013. The soil samples were processed for analysis of Cd, Pb contents. The present paper attempts to analyze survey of soil blue-green algal identification in different types of stations, using morphological, physiological and molecular characterization. Pb bioremediation assay, determination of chlorophyll, carotenoid and phycobiliproteins content measurements was investigated as physiological characterization. Kamptonema animale, Leptolyngbya breviarticulata and Kamptonema sp. are new to Iran and Oscillatoria tenuis with high heavy metal absorption could play an important role as biomonitoring agent.
