Data on the cultivation of Prochloron sp. at different salinity levels.

ABSTRACT: The data in this article describe the population growth of Prochloron cells outside the hosts at the different salinity levels. The cultivation was performed in enriched standard culture media with continuous photoperiod. The culture stock of Prochloron cells which was made as inoculum (starter) in the laboratory was isolated from tunics of an ascidian Lissoclinum patella. The ascidian was obtained from 20 m depth at Malalayang coastal water in Manado Bay, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. The initial stock was kept in 20 ppt liquid medium. Then the cells were transferred into culture chambers, each prepared with different salinities: 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 and 45 ppt. After the cells reached exponential phase, some drops of cell suspension were transferred into agar media wi
