What is Differential response of two species of the cyanobacterium Anabaena to ultraviolet (UV‐C) irradiation about?

## Abstract Ultraviolet sensitivity of two different species of __Anabaena, Anabaena doliolum__ and __Anabaena__ sp. was studied. These two species differ in their pigment composition; __A. doliolum__ showed predominance of phycocyanin whereas __Anabaena__ sp. showed predominance of phycoerythrin pigments. Survival of the two species were different after exposure to different doses of UV (λ~mot~ 254 nm) irradiation; __Anabaena__ sp. was more resistant to higher UV dose than __A. doliolum__. In both species the UV induced damage was partially repaired by white fluorescent light. __A. doliolum__ showed a lower rate of photorecovery than __Anabaena__ sp., Higher UV dose (20 min) induced production of a non‐nitrogen fixing strain of __A. doliolum__ and a pigment mutant lacking phycoerythrin of __Anabaena__ sp.
