Quantity and proportion of individual Omega3 and Omega6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) obtained from final harvested biomass of the temperature × light cross-gradient. Each pie plot represents the mean (n = 3) PUFA content of a single culture condition. The sizes of pie plots and their sections are proportional to the amount of FA. The black number in the box represents the quantity of total PUFA content per biomass (mg DWg−1) and the red bold number represents the Omega6: Omega3 PUFA ratio. Colors correspond to the individual PUFA—blue/green colors indicate Omega6 PUFA and red/yellow colors indicate Omega3 PUFA. Long-chain PUFA (LC-PUFA) are marked by diagonal hatching. PUFA of occurrence are Linoleic acid—18:2ω6 (LA), Gamma-linolenic acid—18:3ω6 (GLA), Dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid—20:3ω6 (DGLA), Docosapentaenoic acid—22:5ω6 (DPA), Alpha-linolenic acid—18:3ω3 (ALA), Stearidonic acid—18:4ω3 (SDA); Eicosapentaenoic acid—20:5ω3 (EPA); Docosahexaenoic acid—22:6ω3 (DHA). * One replication available (n = 1); ** Two replications available (n = 2)
