Figure 4From: Fatty acid profiles and their distribution patterns in microalgae: a comprehensive analysis of more than 2000 strains from the SAG culture collectionDiscrimination of 162 algal strains of the Chlorophyta into three subgroups representing the three green algal classes Chlorophyceae (diamonds), Trebouxiophyceae (arrowheads) and Ulvophyceae (circles) as based on their fatty acid distribution patterns using Canonical Variates Analysis. Both vectors correspond to variables (fatty acids) correlated with both canonical axes. Lines encircle 65% of members of a particular group.Back to article page
