Abstract: The tasks outlined in the ONR Grant entitled 'Marine Phytoplankton Culture Collection: Resources for Algal Biotechnology' have been completed. The Provasoli-Guillard National Center for culture of Marine Phytoplankton (CCMP) has provided both starter cultures and large volume batch cultures for ONR scientists working in the areas of algal biotechnology and nanofabrication. In addition, we provided culturing assistance via the telephone and e-mail for ONR scientists. We also trained one ONR-supported Ph.D. graduate student who took our intensive course on Marine Phytoplankton Culturing Techniques. We also isolated into culture new strains of marine phytoplankton that should be useful in the areas of biotechnology and nanofabrication. Finally, the grant provided minor support for the general operations of the CCMP. Our 'List of Strains' was just published as a supplement to the Journal of Phycology and was supported in part by this grant.
