2. The photosynthetic parameters for lipid synthesis for individual species need
to be worked out so that the contributions of individual species to the lipid
production of the phytoplankton community can be understood.
3. The conditions/species that lead to large episodic increases in lipid production
require further study, particularly in fresh water.
4. The photosynthetic parameters associated with the production of the other
biomolecules could be calculated so that the biochemical profile of the whole
lake could be studied.
