History/Usage

first released
last updated2.69
last change typeMIN  - change to field other than name
change reasonThe component for this term was erroneously named Protheca (a genus of beetles) instead of the intended term, Prototheca (a genus of algae). Since the term included a text definition that defined the term correctly as the algae and the initial version had a method of routine fungal culture (now its just culture) and since no one will be culturing beetles- there should be no confusion about this correction.
