Abstract
ABSTRACTAbundance of Pithophora oedogonia akinetes displayed seasonal changes, being greatest in winter and lowest in summer. Akinete abundance showed significant (P < 0.001) negative correlations with photoperiod(r = ‐0.53) and water temperature (r= ‐0.75) during the period February 1978 through June 1979. Experiments in which akinete germination was studied in response to manipulations of nutrients (NO3‐N and PO4‐P), photoperiod and temperature indicated that temperature was the primary factor regulating the timing of the vernal flush of akinete germination observed in Surrey Lake.
