Highlights
Phytoplanktons are the primary producer of marine ecosystems and contribute towards the primary productivity of aquatic environment
The highest number of species was recorded from Rozi port followed by Pirotan and Sachana
This study reported occurrence of 83% of Bacillariophyceae followed by Dinophyceae (7%) and Chlorophyceae (4%), whereas the Cyanophyceae, Trebouxiophyceaeand Ulvophyceae each contributed 2% respectively to the total population of Phytoplankton at this site
Summary
Phytoplanktons are the primary producer of marine ecosystems and contribute towards the primary productivity of aquatic environment. A total of 106 species of phytoplankton were recorded, of which the highest species diversity was found at Rozi followed by Pirotan and Sachana. The highest number of species was recorded at Rozi port (75 sp.) followed by Pirotan (54 sp.) and Sachana (46 sp.). Phytoplanktons are group of photosynthetic microalgae that serve as a primary producer & important component in the food web. They use solar radiation and CO2, nutrients and trace element to process their food. Phytoplankton imparts 20-25 % of the world’s total net primary production [1] They initiate the marine food chain, by serving as food to primary consumers. Phytoplanktons species are indicators of environmental changes, and long-term time-series are effective tools to evaluate and understand these changes [4]
