Abstract
    The diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana Hasle & Heimdal was grown in batch culture in one artificial sea-water medium and one fresh-water medium over a range of orthosilicic acid concentrations. Growth rates and cellular silicon quotas were measured in the exponential growth phase. The half-saturation constant of silicon-limited growth was about 0 multiplied by 04 mu M Si(OH)4 in the marine medium and about 8 multiplied by 6 mu M Si(OH)4 in the freshwater medium, the maximum growth rate being about 2 multiplied by 75 d-1 in both media. Possible reasons for the difference in affinity for silicon in salt and fresh water include differences in pH, ion composition, and osmotic pressure.
